References .......................................................................................................................................... 313 Abstract Problems that non-governmental organizations (NGOs) encountered in China, where the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)-State has extensive control over society, raise question over whether the Western concept of public sphere is appropriate for China; or on the other hand, whether it is necessary to reconceptualise public sphere theory and practice to capture the realistic situation in China. To test this hypothesis the development and operation of the Red Cross in China will be analysed from both a historical and theoretical perspective. The thesis argues that the changing historic role of the Red Cross in China provides a case study of how NGOs operate within an environment in which the State plays an interventionist role in what can be deemed the public sphere. This case study of the Red Cross Society of China (RCSC), a member of the International Federation, takes us from its inception in China through to the post- Mao period up to 1999, and analyses how it operates within an environment where the State has historically and contemporarily been a central component of the public sphere. Whilst interference by the State is a constant, however, due to the historic change of political systems, this study of the RCSC shows different characteristics not only in terms of government intervention but also in conceptualization of the public sphere. The aim of this study is to explore the relationship between the RCSC and governments before and after 1949 and examine the history of the RCSC in four different periods as this NGO adapted to changing State regimes and what that says about such western notions of the public sphere and civil society. 1 By examining the relationship between the RCSC and governments in the late Qing Dynasty, the Republic of China, the Mao era and the post-Mao era up to 1999, this thesis argues that despite the central role of the State in all the phases of the RCSC’s history in China, there was differing but still evidential operational space for its effective functioning in civil society. The broader implications of the evidence from the RSCS role is that NGOs in China are able to perform useful roles in the Chinese society, such as the provision of public goods and services that the State cannot effectively

Copyright 0 1996 Pacific Rim Law & Policy Association CHINA'S EUGENICS LAW AS GROUNDS FOR GRANTING ASYLUM Graciela G6mez Abstract: China has instituted two controversial population control programs. First instituted in 1979, the One Child Policy seeks to control population growth by limiting the number of children born to married couples. The Maternal and Infant Health Care Law ("Eugenics Law"), effective June of 1995, has a stated purpose of improving the quality of the population by mandating sterilization for people with serious genetic defects. Implementation of the One Child Policy has led to forced abortion and involuntary sterilization. The Eugenics Law is likely to engender similar types of human rights abuses. Since 1989, the U.S. Board of Immigration Appeals has refused to give asylum to Chinese nationals fleeing persecution because of reproductive rights violations.

    REPORTING TIMEFRAME: 31 January – 31 July 2020 Volunteers from the Salvadoran Red Cross are attending to the elderly caught up in the COVID-19 pandemic. They prepare food and distribute it in rural zones where people are living in vulnerable conditions. 1 Photo: Salvadoran Red Cross The IFRC COVID-19 emergency response operation is a global response of individual domestic responses. The IFRC network comprises 192 member Red Cross and Red Crescent National Societies, responding to the local needs of those affected by COVID- 19 in their own countries, based on their respective mandates and COVID-19 National Society Response Plans. They are supported by the membership and by the IFRC Secretariat, in a Federation-wide approach. The Federation-wide CHF 1.9 billion appeal laid out the broad support needs, and this update reports on the progress in executing this plan over the first 6 months. The structure starts with a birds-eye- view and then zooms in, looking first at what has been accomplished from the Federation-wide perspective. Next, it looks to the progress of IFRC Secretariat support, first globally, then regionally, including country-level National Society response highlights. Finally, the Validated Financial Report provides information on the level of donor response, income, budgets, and registered expenditure at the end of the July 2020 reporting period, disaggregated by country, regional and thematic level. 2 COVID-19 Federation-wide Overview | Introduction COVID-19 Federation-wide Overview Overview: Data Limitations: The IFRC has established, in consultation • Missing data, missing disaggregation and with many National Societies, a Federation-wide breakdowns: COVID-19 operational response framework to National Societies are diverse and have their own data harmonize planning, monitoring, and reporting on collection systems and processes that may not Covid-19 global response.

  • China's Afrika Beleid
    China in Afrika: ontwikkelingsland of grootmacht Een neoklassieke analyse van het Afrikabeleid van China tussen 1978-2002 - Radboud Universiteit Nijmegen - Masterthesis Politicologie Internationale Betrekkingen Nijmegen, 27 maart 2013 Ramona Schmetter, 3023249 Begeleider: Dr. Anna van der Vleuten Tweede lezer: Prof. Dr. Bertjan Verbeek Abstract China’s presence on the African continent goes back to the ancient times. China supported African countries during the Cold War mainly on a bilateral basis. In 2000, with the establishment of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC), the character of the cooperation between China and African countries changed rapidly to a more multilateral kind. It is not clear what explains the shift from bilateral connections to extended multilateral cooperation. In this masterthesis I tried to offer an explanation for this change in Chinese foreign policy behaviour with the help of the neoclassical realist theory. China’s relative power has increased in the last two decades and while the perception of the China’s foreign policy executive (FPE) changed positively, other internal factors like the power position of the FPE remained relatively unchanged. In fact, this shows some anomalies for the expectations of neoclassical realism. Trefwoorden: Africa, China, foreign policy, Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC), neoclassical realism. 2 Voorwoord in het Duits Ich bin keine Frau großer Worte, vorallem nicht schriftlich oder in einer fremden Sprache.
