The vote marks a significant change of stance for Germany, Turkey's biggest trade partner in the European Union and home to a large ethnic Turkish diaspora. Unlike France and some two dozen other countries, Berlin has long resisted using the word. The term 'genocide' also has special resonance in Germany, which has worked hard to come to terms with its responsibility for the murder of six million Jews in the Holocaust. In a parliamentary session to commemorate the 100th German President Joachim Gauck also used the word 'geno- anniversary of the start of the killings, all parliamentary groups cide' in a speech on Thursday. Gauck, a former East German in the Bundestag lower house backed the resolution in a vote pastor with a penchant for defying convention, also suggested likely to infuriate Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan. Germany itself might bear some of the blame because of its "What happened in the middle of the First World War in the actions during World War One.

Austrian Parliament Recognizes Armenian Genocide Austria became on April 22 the latest country to recognize the 1915 Armenian genocide in Ottoman Turkey, a First World War- era ally of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The Austrian parliament approved a corresponding statement drafted by the parliamentary leaders of the country's six main political parties after observing a minute of silence for up to 1.5 million Armenians massacred by the Ottoman Turks. "April 24, 1915 marked the beginning of a policy of deporta- tion and persecution, which ended in genocide," parliament speaker Doris Bures said at a special session dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the tragedy. The parliamentary faction leaders stressed the importance of recognizing the Armenian massacres as genocide in their ensuing speeches delivered at the National Council. liament session, was quick to welcome the declaration coming The declaration authored by them reads, "Due to a historical just two days before official ceremonies in Yerevan that will mark responsibility -- the Austro-Hungarian Empire was allied with the the centenary of the genocide.

    Reinterpreting the Global, Rearticulating the Local: Nueva Música Colombiana, Networks, Circulation, and Affect Simón Calle Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2012 © 2012 Simón Calle All rights reserved ABSTRACT Reinterpreting the Global, Rearticulating the Local: Nueva Música Colombiana, Networks, Circulation, and Affect Simón Calle This dissertation analyses identity formation through music among contemporary Colombian musicians. The work focuses on the emergence of musical fusions in Bogotá, which participant musicians and Colombian media have called “nueva música Colombiana” (new Colombian music). The term describes the work of bands that assimilate and transform North-American music genres such as jazz, rock, and hip-hop, and blend them with music historically associated with Afro-Colombian communities such as cumbia and currulao, to produce several popular and experimental musical styles. In the last decade, these new fusions have begun circulating outside Bogotá, becoming the distinctive sound of young Colombia domestically and internationally. The dissertation focuses on questions of musical circulation, affect, and taste as a means for articulating difference, working on the self, and generating attachments others and therefore social bonds and communities This dissertation considers musical fusion from an ontological perspective influenced by actor-network, non-representational, and assemblage theory. Such theories consider a fluid social world, which emerges from the web of associations between heterogeneous human and material entities. The dissertation traces the actions, interactions, and mediations between places, people, institutions, and recordings that enable the emergence of new Colombian music. In considering those associations, it places close attention to the affective relationships between people and music.

Armenian-Azerbaijani Fighting Claims More Lives Two Armenian and Azerbaijani sol- diers and one Armenian civilian have been killed in fresh ceasefire violations along the Armenian-Azerbaijani border and "the line of contact" around Nagorno-Karabakh reported over the past day. Vanik Ghukasyan, a 60-year resident of Nerkin Karmiraghbyur, was shot dead late on February 5 after his border village in Armenia's northern Tavush province came under fire from nearby Azerbaijani army positions. Many local residents reportedly spent the night in their base- ments. The Armenian Defense Ministry said Azerbaijani forces also opened "inten- sive" fire overnight on virtually all other Tavush villages close to the Azerbaijani border. Artsrun Hovannisyan, the min- istry spokesman, said on February 6 that the Armenian troops stationed in the area shot back.

  • Meet Jill the Theater Teacher! by Parker Luitwieler Q: Why Did You Want to Work at Eacademy? A: I Love Working for a Smaller School, Because It’S Way More Intimate
    Meet Jill the Theater Teacher! by Parker Luitwieler Q: Why did you want to work at eAcademy? A: I love working for a smaller school, because it’s way more intimate. Also, I get the feeling the students at eAcademy really want to be here. That brings about a really positive vibe. I support the more student centered classroom which is sadly still not the norm in most public school. And finally, I believe in blended learning because it’s the wave of the future. Q: What’s your favorite part of eAcademy? A: I really admire how eAcademy is growing; thoughtfully, intelligently and creatively. It’s exciting to be a part of the “early” years. There is no doubt in my mind that it is on the right track. Q: What is your favorite TV show? A: I’ll admit, I was obsessed with Breaking Bad and Mad Men; sad to see these two series end. Right now I’m watching The Wire which was on HBO in the early 2000’s, and has been on my Must-Watch list for several years. It’s as good as everyone has said it is. Q: What is your favorite Film? A: That is an impossible question to answer! I love watching films, and I make myself watch a variety; foreign, indies, documentaries, comedies- because it’s good for me. It’s easy on the brain to always watch popular American Films, but it’s way more satisfying to see what else is out there. Having said that, the last good film I watched just the other night on Netfllix was “While We’re Young” An American film! Q: What’s your favorite Play? A: I don’t have a favorite play.
