  • Iran and Central Asia: a Cultural Perspective1
    Iran and Central Asia: A Cultural Perspective1 Davood Kiani One of the most important tools utilized by states to maximize their impact in foreign affairs is public diplomacy and to this extent, public diplomacy is considered a source of soft power. The robust use of public diplomacy can enhance and reinforce the soft power of countries. Central Asia is among the regions that have an ever increasing relevance to regional and international affairs in the aftermath of the collapse of the Soviet Union, and is currently considered a critical subsystem for our country. The foreign policy of the Islamic Republic of Iran towards this region is, on one hand, built on the foundation of converging factors in political, economic, and cultural arenas and looking towards opportunities for influence and cooperation. On the other hand, considering the divergent components, it also faces challenges and threats, the sum of which continues to effect the orientation of Iranian foreign policy towards the region. This article will study Iranian public diplomacy in this region and examine the opportunities and challenges, as well as, provide and proper model for a successful public diplomacy in the region of Central Asia, while taking into account the Islamic Republic of Iran’s tools and potential.

It is well-documented that standard amounts of fluoride in drinking- water can decrease the rate of dental caries. This study was conducted with the aim of measuring fluoride concentration of drinking-water supplies and urban distribution system in Qom, Iran. Materials and Methods: Results were subsequently compared against national and international standards. All sources of drinking-water of rural and urban areas were examined. To measure fluoride, the standard SPADNS method and a DR/4000s spectrophotometer were used . Results: Results showed that the mean of fluoride concentration in rural areas, mainly supplied with groundwater sources, was 0.41 mg/L, that of the urban distribution system 0.82 mg/L, that of Ali-Abad station 0.11 mg/L, and that of the private water desalination system 0.24 mg/L.

  • Legal Status of Offshore Bunkering in EEZ and Other Maritime Zones, Based on the Case Law of ITLOS
    1 Public Law Studies Quarterly, Vol. 47, No. 2, Summer 2017 Legal Status of Offshore Bunkering in EEZ and other Maritime Zones, Based on the Case Law of ITLOS Seyed Bagher Mirabbasi1*, Abootaleb Amirshaabani2 Abstract The Exclusive Economic Zone made its first appearance in the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea. By creating this zone, the convention met coastal states' needs to a large extent. However, since the Exclusive Economic zone covers a very large area of the Sea (almost one-third), powerful maritime states did not consent to grant all the rights and jurisdictions to the coastal states. Such disagreement led to devising sovereign rights regime for the zone, which is less decisive in settling disputes, as opposed to sovereignty regime. As a result, since the adoption of the law of the sea Convention, many disputes have been arisen with regard to its jurisdictional matters. One of the most popular disputes in this regard is offshore bunkering of foreign fishing vessels, which was eventually decided by ITLOS in the seminal case of M/V Virginia G. Based on this case and other related cases of ITLOS, this article aims at commenting on the legality of offshore bunkering of other ships and vessels in EEZ and other maritime zones.

  • Auteurs Scandinavische Misdaadromans
    Gratis overzicht AUTEURS SCANDINAVISCHE MISDAADROMANS Mei 2019 De opmars van de Scandinavische kwaliteitsthrillers De opmars van de Scandinavische kwaliteitsthrillers begon in de jaren zestig met de maatschappijkritische misdaad- romans van Sjowall en Wahloo. Voor het eerst kreeg de misdaadroman een menselijk gezicht. Werk en privéleven van de hoofdpersonen liepen, net als in het dagelijks leven, onontwarbaar door elkaar. Een politieman met een maagzweer en huwelijksproblemen was niet per definitie de aardigste collega op het werk. Het effect was dat mensen die vroeger nooit misdaadromans lazen, plotseling wel Sjowall en Wahloo gingen lezen. Het was in wezen het begin van een brede acceptatie van de misdaadroman. Wat het maatschappijkritische aspect van de misdaad- romans betreft, dat werd door vrijwel alle misdaadauteurs uit Scandinavië als een voorwaarde beschouwd. Anders dan de misdaadboeken uit andere werelddelen kenmerken de thrillers uit Scandinavië zich door hun grote maatschappe- Dit aspect, gecombineerd met de grote maatschappelijke lijke betrokkenheid. In Zweden is men daar zelfs zo trots op betrokkenheid van de gemiddelde Noordeling, zorgt voor dat men vindt dat de misdaadroman in dat opzicht de rol ijzersterke boeken van diegenen die in staat zijn om van de literatuur heeft overgenomen. verhalen in boekvorm onder woorden te brengen. De kloof tussen de materialistische welvaartmaatschappij en de Dat Scandinavië een uitstekende voedingsbodem vormt zwakkere individuen die vermalen worden door het voor ijzersterke misdaadromans, lijkt moeilijk te verklaren systeem, levert een nooit opdrogende bron aan misnoegen door het feit dat er in de boeken veel nadruk wordt gelegd en verhalen op. op het decor besneeuwde bossen, eindeloos lange donkere nachten, afgelegen plekken te over.
