Shortly after, World War I would lead the US to global primacy. The canal was much more than the construction of a shipping route between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans; it meant that America was a power capable of and willing to reshaping the Western Hemi- sphere in its way to becoming a world power. A century later –in 2014- China announced it would begin a similar enterprise in Nicaragua. What are the geopolitical implications for Latin America? Is this sig- naling a more assertive Chinese foreign policy seeking – by ambition or by necessity– to challenge the US in the Western Hemisphere? Is this geographic reshaping also politically reflecting the emergence of a world power? Keywords: Latin America, China, United States, geo- http://dx.doi.org/10.18359/ries.2308 politics, Panama.

  • Heraldic Terms
    HERALDIC TERMS The following terms, and their definitions, are used in heraldry. Some terms and practices were used in period real-world heraldry only. Some terms and practices are used in modern real-world heraldry only. Other terms and practices are used in SCA heraldry only. Most are used in both real-world and SCA heraldry. All are presented here as an aid to heraldic research and education. A LA CUISSE, A LA QUISE - at the thigh ABAISED, ABAISSÉ, ABASED - a charge or element depicted lower than its normal position ABATEMENTS - marks of disgrace placed on the shield of an offender of the law. There are extreme few records of such being employed, and then only noted in rolls. (As who would display their device if it had an abatement on it?) ABISME - a minor charge in the center of the shield drawn smaller than usual ABOUTÉ - end to end ABOVE - an ambiguous term which should be avoided in blazon. Generally, two charges one of which is above the other on the field can be blazoned better as "in pale an X and a Y" or "an A and in chief a B". See atop, ensigned. ABYSS - a minor charge in the center of the shield drawn smaller than usual ACCOLLÉ - (1) two shields side-by-side, sometimes united by their bottom tips overlapping or being connected to each other by their sides; (2) an animal with a crown, collar or other item around its neck; (3) keys, weapons or other implements placed saltirewise behind the shield in a heraldic display.

  • A Case Study of Hong Kong SAR and Its Implications to Chinese Foreign Policy
    Paradiplomacy and its Constraints in a Quasi-Federal System – A Case Study of Hong Kong SAR and its Implications to Chinese Foreign Policy Wai-shun Wilson CHAN ([email protected]) Introduction Thank for the Umbrella Movement in 2014, Hong Kong has once again become the focal point of international media. Apart from focusing the tensions built among the government, the pro-Beijing camp and the protestors on the pathway and the pace for local democratization, some media reports have linked the movement with the Tiananmen Incident, and serves as a testing case whether “One Country, Two Systems” could be uphold under the new Xin Jinping leadership.1 While academics and commentators in Hong Kong and overseas tend to evaluate the proposition from increasing presence of Beijing in domestic politics and the decline of freedoms and rights enjoyed by civil society,2 little evaluation is conducted from the perspective of the external autonomy enjoyed by Hong Kong under “One Country, Two Systems”. In fact, the Sino-British Joint Declaration and the subsequent Basic Law have defined and elaborated the scope of Hong Kong’s autonomy in conducting external relations ‘with states, regions and relevant international organizations.’ 3 It is therefore tempted to suggest that the external autonomy enjoyed by Hong Kong SAR Government serves as the other pillar of “One Country, Two Systems”, giving an unique identity of Hong Kong in global politics which may be different from that possessed by mainland China. Though officially “One Country, Two Systems” practiced in Hong Kong (and Macao) is not recognized by Beijing as a federal arrangement between the Central People’s Government and Hong Kong SAR Government, the internal and external autonomy stipulated in the Basic Law gives Hong Kong similar, to some extent even more, power as a typical federated unit.

  • A Review of the Cross-Strait Relations
    Revista UNISCI / UNISCI Journal, Nº 46 (Enero/January 2018) A REVIEW OF THE CROSS-STRAIT RELATIONS ACCORDING TO THE RISE OF THE CHINESE COMMUNITY AND THE HEGEMONIC COMPETITION: THE STRATEGIC CONSIDERATION OF THE CROSS-OCEANIC CANAL Roberto Ren-rang Chyou 1 National Chengchi University Abstract According to "A German Media Forecasts the next 30 year of China" a report which appeared in November 2016 in the internet, around the year 2033, surrounding the Chinese mainland, a Greater China region will be formed. It is expected that its total economy will be similar in size to that of the United States. It seems inevitable that by 2040, the Oriental world wealth will be more than the Western world’s, while the global GDP ranking after re-shuffling may be sorted as follows: 1. Greater China; 2. European Union; 3. North America (USA and Canada); 4. Japan; 5. Republic of Greater Korea; and, 6. India. Through the presentation of this argument, this article hopes to understand the process of China's rise, the Chinese community's future overall cooperation, as a way to approach the hegemonic competition between China and the United States, and the future of cross-Strait relations. Finally, from the angle of the trans-oceanic canal construction, some observations will also be made. Keywords : Cross-Strait relations, rise of Chinese community, hegemonic competition, cross-Oceanic canal . Titulo en Castellano : Una revision de las relaciones en el Estrecho de Taiwán teniendo en cuenta el auge de la comunidad china y la competición hegemónica: La consideración estratégica del Canal transoceánico Resumen : De cuerdo con el informe” las previsiones de los medios de comunicación alemanes sobre China en los próximos 30 años” aparecido en internet en noviembre de 2016, en el año 2033 se formará la región de la Gran China rodeando a China continental.

Mary Cranfield, may be contacted for pastoral care by contacting her on 01467 671241 2 Dear Friends, Like many of you I have been horrified and ashamed at what has been hap- pening recently to some of the people who came to Britain from the Caribbean following the Second World War. They were invited to come to help rebuild Britain and have made a huge contribution as part of our communities and nation. I imagine that we have all come across the stories of how individuals and families have suddenly been made to feel unwelcome as they have got caught up in particular interpretations of recent immigration policies and have been denied medical treatment, denied readmission to Britain and even been deported. It has become clear that many people are deeply ashamed at what has happened and are really upset at the appalling situations into which peo- ple have been placed, and the personal cost in terms of distress and fear, as well as the trauma of being made to feel unwelcome. Until recent days there has been the added stress of being forced to attempt to jump through all kinds of impossible bureaucratic hoops.

  • The Football Laboratory: Policing Football Supporters in the Netherlands

It is argued that pre-emptive risk management in the policing of football supporters involves a dispersed and fragmented set of state and non-state actors that engage in the process of identifying, categorizing, monitoring and punishing supporters who are seen to pose a threat to public order. The chapter also analyzes the modes of resistance used by football supporters to countervail, weaken or subvert disciplinary matrices, showing the diversity in supporters’ responses to the techniques of pre-emptive risk management. Introduction [T]he finality of government resides in the things it manages and in the pursuit of the perfection and intensification of the processes which it directs; and the instruments of government, instead of being laws, now come to be a range of multiform tactics.1 In February 2012, the Netherlands Minister of Security and Justice, the mayors of municipalities with a professional football club, the Royal Netherlands Football Association (Koninklijke 1 Foucault, (Michel), ‘Governmentality’.
