NATIONAL DRUG ENFORCEMENT POLICY BOARD Federal Drug Enforcement Progress Report 1984 - 1985 March 1986 PREFACE This report is submitted to Congress pursuant to the National Narcotics Act of 1984. As Chairman of the National Drug Enforcement Policy Board, the Attorney General is required to submit biannual reports to Congress. On July 9, 1985, the Policy Board forwarded its first report, which described the Board's law enforcement policies and strategies. Beginning with this second report, the Board must give to Congress "a full and complete report reflecting accomplishments ...." Even though the Policy Board was not created until the middle of fiscal year 1985, this report describes accomplishments in drug enforcement during fiscal years 1984 and 1985. Although this report focuses primarily on law enforcement efforts to reduce the supply of drugs in the United States, the Policy Board recognizes the importance of efforts to reduce the demand for drugs. A major section of this report describes the Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force (OCDETF) Program. Annual reports of the OCDETF Program were prepared for calendar years 1983 and 1984. The Policy Board has decided to consolidate reporting on 1985 OCDETF accomplishments within this report. i TABLE OF CONTENTS Preface ..................................................... i List of Tables and Figures .................................. iii Introduction .................................................

  • United Nations Human Rights Thematic Mechanism to Be Established with a Universal Mandate
    A/HRC/19/58/Rev.1 Advance Edited Version Distr.: General 2 March 2012 Original: English Human Rights Council Nineteenth session Agenda item 3 Promotion and protection of all human rights, civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights, including the right to development Report of the Working Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearances* ** Summary The Working Group was the first United Nations human rights thematic mechanism to be established with a universal mandate. The original mandate derives from Commission on Human Rights resolution 20 (XXXVI) of 29 February 1980. This resolution followed General Assembly resolution 33/173 of 20 December 1978, in which the Assembly expressed concern at reports from various parts of the world relating to enforced disappearances and requested the Commission on Human Rights to consider the question of missing or disappeared persons. The mandate was most recently extended by the Human Rights Council in its resolution 16/16 of 24 March 2011. The total number of cases transmitted by the Working Group to Governments since its inception is 53,778. The number of cases under active consideration that have not yet been clarified, closed or discontinued stands at 42,759 in a total of 82 States. The Working Group has been able to clarify 448 cases over the past five years. The present report reflects communications and cases examined by the Working Group during its three sessions in 2011, covering the period 13 November 2010 to 11 November 2011. It includes, in annex I, sections on 95 States and territories; the Working Group’s latest general comment on the right to recognition as a person before the law in the context of enforced disappearance; and the Working Group’s revised methods of work.

  • The Wind-Band Phenomenon in Italy: a Short Socio-Historical Survey and Its Effect on Popular Musical Education
    Journal of Liberal Arts and Humanities (JLAH) Issue: Vol. 1; No. 11; November 2020 pp. 1-21 ISSN 2690-070X (Print) 2690-0718 (Online) Website: www.jlahnet.com E-mail: [email protected] Doi: 10.48150/jlah.v1no11.2020.a1 The Wind-Band phenomenon in Italy: A short socio-historical survey and its effect on popular musical education Prof. Emanuele Raganato University of Salento (Italy) E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Wind-Bands are musical ensembles existing all around the world, but with a stronger traditional presence in certain regions of the globe. One of these regions is Southern Italy. In this geographical area, this phenomenon developed historically over two centuries and has taken on shapes now considered traditional. Thanks to Wind-Bands, historically, millions of Italians have participated in collective musical activities as musicians or listeners and have been trained in music. Wind-Bands, in fact, for most of the 19th and 20th centuries have been the main means of spreading musical culture in Italy and the world and the only way for working class youth to learn a musical instrument. Thanks to a careful examination of the publications on the local Wind- Bands through the historiographic method, we have outlined a frame that explains the change in the social role of the Bands from the end of the 19th century to today. The conclusion is that today the Wind-Band has assumed a new morphology that, however, would deserve to be reconsidered taking into account the new social changes taking place (emigration of the middle class, immigration, social reforms and the music education system, and so on.) to understand if, as in the past, the Wind-Band can still have a fundamental functional role in local communities for social cohesion and music education, or at least imagine future scenarios to reconsider this role.
