Deben ir en su idioma original y, en ciertos casos, bajo el área jurisdiccional correspondiente. Frecuentemente en los documentos originales no es posible averiguar los datos que se necesitan. El catalogador debe tener los recursos suficientes para ser capaz de encontrar la forma correcta de construir los puntos de acceso de los registros bibliográficos. Por eso, la información estructurada resulta imprescindible. También para el bibliotecario referencista es importante contar con datos que le sirvan para hacer búsquedas más adecuadas y pertinentes. En fin, al mismo usuario puede serle útil a la hora de enfrentarse con publicaciones nacionales o extranjeras cuyos puntos de acceso son más eleborados e, incluso “escurridizos”, que los simples de autor personal y título. El objetivo de este documento es ofrecer a todos ellos una ayuda para conseguir mejores resultados con una menor pérdida de tiempo. La información proviene de las páginas web que mantienen los gobiernos de los diversos estados ó comunidades y las instituciones supracionales. Los datos han sido agrupados y ordenados según criterios geográficos, alfabéticos, sistemáticos, etc., según los casos. También se han puesto en español los nombres de paises, regiones, o circunscripciones administrativas que tenían traducción en nuestro idioma, puesto que en este caso, es preceptivo que las áreas jurisdiccionales estén en español, aunque siempre se ha mantenido entre corchetes su denominación en lengua original, y cuando ha sido posible, también en inglés. Mención aparte merecen las Comunidades autónomas españolas que son bilingües y en su territorio existen dos lenguas oficiales. En el documento aparecen en español las áreas jurisdiccionales, pero también constan sus nombres en las lenguas particulares de cada Comunidad autónoma. El nombre de las instituciones aparece en el idioma propio y separado por "/" el nombre en español. Esta ordenación debe interpretarse como que ambos nombres son admisibles, eligiendo cada centro catalogador la forma que sea más apropiada para sus usuarios y que se ajuste más a sus fines. En el ámbito de la BUC, se prefiere siempre el nombre en español. Ej.: En el documento aparece: Cataluña [Catalunya] Generalitat de Catalunya / Generalidad de Cataluña El catalogador de la BUC creará la entrada CATALUÑA. Generalidad Entidades políticas y administrativas del mundo. Pág. 1 Sin embargo, es fundamental advertir a todos los que utilicen la información de este documento, que los datos que en el aparecen NO son puntos de acceso normalizados, propiamente dichos. El catalogador, a partir de ellos, debe construir la entrada correcta, catalográficamente hablando, siguiendo las Reglas de Catalogación que rijan en su país, ó en su centro. Ej.: En el documento aparece: ESPAÑA Ministerio de Economía y Hacienda Subdirección General de Política Tributaria El catalogador creará la entrada ESPAÑA. Subdirección General de Política Tributaria En el documento aparece: Cantabria Consejería de Obras Públicas, Vivienda y Urbanismo Dirección General de Obras Hidraúlicas y Puertos El catalogador creará la entrada CANTABRIA . Dirección General de Obras Hidraúlicas y Puertos En el documento aparece: HONDURAS Partidos políticos Partido Nacional (PN) El catalogador creará la entrada PARTIDO NACIONAL (Honduras) Pág. 2 Entidades políticas y administrativas del mundo. En el documento aparece: ALEMANIA Baja Sajonia [Niedersachsen – Lower Saxony] Kulturministerium Niedersächsiste Landeszentrale für politische Bildung El catalogador creará la entrada BAJA SAJONIA. Niedersächsiste Ladeszentrale für politische Bildung Las direcciones URL que aparecen al final del documento son útiles para quienes que tengan acceso y deseen información de primera mano o más exhaustiva. Aún teniendo en cuenta que estas direcciones no son permanentes, hemos preferido mantenerlas en el documento en papel. Entidades políticas y administrativas del mundo.

More than 100 participants from over 50 countries spent five days of discussing as well as exchanging opinions and experiences from their homecountries in order to get closer together and fight with “Youth Power for a Global Green Change“. Workshops, fishbowl discussions and a world café were organised as parts of the congress. The debated topics were endless – reaching from economics and gender issues to social justice, peace and conflicts and - of course - climate change. After three days of debating, two days of General Assem- bly followed. In this, new structures were adopted as well as several topical proposals to form a wider political platform. With this documentation, we are trying to show what the congress was about and what was behind.

  • Germany 2020 Human Rights Report
    GERMANY 2020 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Germany is a constitutional democracy. Citizens choose their representatives periodically in free and fair multiparty elections. The lower chamber of the federal parliament (Bundestag) elects the chancellor as head of the federal government. The second legislative chamber, the Federal Council (Bundesrat), represents the 16 states at the federal level and is composed of members of the state governments. The country’s 16 states exercise considerable autonomy, including over law enforcement and education. Observers considered the national elections for the Bundestag in 2017 to have been free and fair, as were state elections in 2018, 2019, and 2020. Responsibility for internal and border security is shared by the police forces of the 16 states, the Federal Criminal Police Office, and the federal police. The states’ police forces report to their respective interior ministries; the federal police forces report to the Federal Ministry of the Interior. The Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution and the state offices for the protection of the constitution are responsible for gathering intelligence on threats to domestic order and other security functions. The Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution reports to the Federal Ministry of the Interior, and the state offices for the same function report to their respective ministries of the interior. Civilian authorities maintained effective control over security forces. Members of the security forces committed few abuses. Significant human rights issues included: crimes involving violence motivated by anti-Semitism and crimes involving violence targeting members of ethnic or religious minority groups motivated by Islamophobia or other forms of right-wing extremism.
