  • Emerging Systemic Risks in the 21St Century
    Emerging Risks in the 21st Century « AN AGENDA FOR ACTION Emerging Risks What is new about risks in the 21st Century? Recent years have witnessed a host of large-scale disasters of various kinds and in various parts of the world: hugely in the 21st Century damaging windstorms and flooding in Europe and ice storms in Canada; new diseases infecting both humans (AIDS, ebola virus) and animals (BSE); terrorist attacks such as those of September 11 in the US and the Sarin gas attack in Japan; major disruptions to critical infrastructures caused by computer viruses or simply technical AN AGENDA FOR ACTION failure, etc. It is not just the nature of major risks that seems to be changing, but also the context in which risks are evolving as well as society’s capacity to manage them. This book explores the implications of these developments for economy and society in the 21st century, focussing in particular on the potentially significant increase in the vulnerability of major systems. The provision of health services, transport, energy, food and water supplies, information and telecomunications are all examples of vital systems that can be severely damaged by a single catastrophic event or a chain of events. Such threats may come from a variety of sources, but this publication concentrates on five large risk clusters: natural disasters, technological accidents, infectious diseases, food safety and terrorism. This book examines the underlying forces driving changes in these risk domains, and identifies the challenges facing Emerging Risks in the 21 OECD countries – especially at international level – in assessing, preparing for and responding to conventional and newly emerging hazards of this kind.

Many of these at-risk children live in countries facing two or three of these grave threats at the same time. In fact, 153 million children are at extreme risk of missing out on childhood because they live in countries characterized by all three threats.1 In commemoration of International Children’s Day, Save the Children releases its second annual End of Childhood Index, taking a hard look at the events that rob children of their childhoods and prevent them from reaching their full potential. WHO ARE THE 1.2 BILLION Compared to last year, the index finds the overall situation CHILDREN AT RISK? for children appears more favorable in 95 of 175 countries.

Vol. 11:2] Christine M. Evans Challenging “Unnatural Crimes”: The Connection between LGBTI Rights and Gender- Specific Sexual Violence Laws in Belize Christine M. Evans * I. INTRODUCTION ¶1 In the Western Hemisphere, the Caribbean region remains the last stronghold against the rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgendered, and intersex (hereinafter “LGBTI”) persons. Anti-gay attitudes remain strong in the region with homophobic slurs common in popular music, public discourse, and religious messages. 1 A number of countries maintain the laws that criminalize same-sex consensual relationships 2 —known as “sodomy laws”—that were first introduced under colonialism. 3 ¶2 Though the prevalence of homophobic attitudes remains a significant obstacle for activists, the fight for LGBTI rights has been heating up in the region.
