In response to a Right to Information request filed by AFP, the Indian embassy in Qatar gave figures detailing the number of deaths in 2012 and the first 11 months of 2013. On average about 20 migrants died per month, peaking at 27 in August last year. There were 237 fatalities in 2012 and another 218 in 2013 up to Dec 5. The embassy did not give any details about the circum- stances of the deaths, but the International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC) said the data showed an “exceptionally high mortality rate”. The embassy in Qatar says that the exact number of Indians in Qatar is unknown, but it was estimated at close to 500,000 at the end of 2012, about 26 percent of Qatar’s total population. Female editor wants others to follow her RIYADH: Somayya Jabarti, the first female editor of a Saudi national daily, hopes to see more women take up top media posts in the ultra-conservative Muslim state. She was named at the weekend as editor-in-chief of the Saudi Gazette, one of the two main English-language dailies in the Gulf kingdom. “The success will not be complete unless I see my peers who are also Saudi women in the media take other roles where they are decision-makers,” Jabarti said in an interview posted on Al-Arabiya News website. “There’s a crack that has been made in the glass ceiling. And I’m hoping it will be made into a door,” said Jabarti, who served as deputy edi- tor since 2011. “Being the first Saudi woman (news- paper editor) is going to be double the responsibil- ity... One’s actions will reflect upon my fellow Saudi women,” she said.

Law, Art, and the Killing Jart Louise Harnon* Most people think of the law as serious business: the business of keeping the peace, protecting property, regulating commerce, allocating risks, and creating families.' The principal movers and shakers of the law work from dawn to dusk, although they often have agents who work at night. 2 Their business is about the outer world and how we treat each other during the day. Sometimes the law worries about our inner life when determining whether a contract was made5 or what might have prompted a murder,4 but usually the emphasis in the law is on our external conduct and how we wheel and deal with each other. The law turns away from the self; it does not engage in the business of introspection or revelation. t©1994 Louise Harmon *Professor of Law, Jacob D. Fuchsberg Law Center, Touro College.

  • EU Accession Talks with Iceland Steven Blockmans 3 June 2013
    Too cold to handle: EU accession talks with Iceland Steven Blockmans 3 June 2013 nlargement has often been hailed as the EU’s most effective external policy. Indeed, the transformative power of the pre-accession process has brought remarkable reform Eand modernisation, especially in the countries of southern, central and eastern Europe. It has helped to expand the zone of peace and prosperity across much of the continent. But the politics of inclusion and harmonisation only work for countries that have a real interest in EU membership. The case of Iceland clearly shows the limits of the Union’s power of attraction. Blowing hot and cold In its coalition agreement of May 21st, Iceland’s new centre-right government decided to freeze accession negotiations with the European Union until Icelanders vote in a referendum on whether they want talks to continue or not. This approach reflects the current eurosceptic mood in Iceland, expressed in the parliamentary elections of April 27th, which inflicted on the pro-EU Social Democratic Alliance (13.5% of the vote) the biggest defeat of any ruling party in the country since independence from Denmark in 1944. The SDA/Left-Green coalition’s combined share of the vote fell from over 50% to under 25%. The vote was favourable to the Independence Party (26.5%), which dominated Icelandic politics before 2009, and to the Progressive Party (24.4%), its main rival and partner in the new coalition. Voters have thus returned the eurosceptic parties that led Iceland to its economic meltdown. While in power, they pushed to privatise the banks and liberalise the financial sector.
