  • By Paul D. Miller the NAURU ELEGIES the NAURU ELEGIES NAURU
    THE NAURU ELEGIES By Paul D. Miller THE NAURU ELEGIES THE NAURU ELEGIES NAURU All Money is a matter of belief Adam Smith, Book III, An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of The Wealth of Nations 1776 In the realm of the senses, finance doesn’t count for much. It’s hard to quantify emotions and the nuanced complexities of human perception. Since antiquity, governments, emperors, presidents, prime ministers, kings and queens have set up bankers, traders and investors with special extra-territorial zones that create respite from the norms of regulations and import-export tax regimes and in return have asked for a steady stream of highly valued revenue for the public purse. On the other hand, human behavior in large numbers has all the hallmarks of what both mathematicians and behavioral economists like to call “emergent complexity” - we think, live, and exist in a world of numbers. And economics, the “dismal science” is a reflection of when we attempt to assign value to human activity. “Extra-territoriality” is a kind of no-place that mirrors early ideas of “eu- topos” (the operative word, topos, meaning land/scape): it’s a kind of place that could only exist in the absence of contingencies - at the interplay of the “special economic zone” and the “core” there is a mirror process of an extended choreography of storage and retrieval. It’s important to think of the broad contours of this structure as a repetoire of effects whose moving parts constitute an hyper abstract machinery of commerce whose core elements are derived from global trade routes and their interaction with the digital “network economy.” Before modernity, “extra-territorial” domains were concentrated in the Mediterranean basin, because of the many nations that competed for limited resources near Delos in Greco- Roman times, and in Venice, Genoa, Luxembourg and Marseilles during the Middle Ages.

    Votes and Proceedings of the 20th Parliament No. 30 Second sitting of the 20th meeting 18 April 2013 10.00am 1 Meeting of House The House met at 10.00am according to the resolution of the House made on 16 April 2013. Hon Ludwig Scotty (Speaker of Parliament) took the Chair and read Prayers. 2 Statement from Chair The Chair made the following statement: Gentlemen, very good morning to you all. Please give me time because I have two statements to present to the House this morning. My first statement is about the new Clerk, it is appropriate if I make it official because I have decided to appoint the new Clerk. Honourable members, I wanted to make it known that I have appointed Ms. Ann-Marie Thoma as the substantive Clerk of Parliament. You may have already been aware that Ann-Marie has done many years of good service to the Parliament and in other public roles of the Republic. And as of late, when Parliament had regretfully lost the service of our late Freddie Cain and the retirement of John Garabwan, both due to health reasons, she assisted myself and the top officials in our Parliament to put things into shape and ensure the smooth progress of this separate entity of the government of our country to operate business as usual and for the better. Ann-Marie has also worked closely in assisting her late brother, attending to official parliamentary duties in many areas. Hence, in considering her attentive reports and her knowledge of parliamentary work, and also my observance of her current role as acting clerk will leave me with no compunction but to be satisfied enough to appoint her to the highest post in the Parliament.

  • Nauru 2013 Human Rights Report
    NAURU 2013 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Nauru is a constitutional republic. Parliamentary elections held on June 8 were generally deemed free and fair after political turmoil during the year. President Baron Waqa was elected from among the 19 parliamentarians. Authorities maintained effective control over the security forces. Security forces did not commit human rights abuses. There were some allegations of government corruption and instances of domestic violence, child abuse, and discrimination against women. International human rights organizations expressed concern over the treatment of asylum seekers and conditions at the Australian-run detention center. Impunity was not a problem, as there were no reports that government officials committed human rights abuses. Section 1. Respect for the Integrity of the Person, Including Freedom from: a. Arbitrary or Unlawful Deprivation of Life There were no reports that the government or its agents committed arbitrary or unlawful killings. b. Disappearance There were no reports of politically motivated disappearances. c. Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman, or Degrading Treatment or Punishment The constitution prohibits such practices, and there were no reports that government officials employed them. Prison and Detention Center Conditions Prison conditions generally met international standards. The government affirmed it would permit visits by independent human rights observers and several such visits occurred during the year. International human rights organizations criticized NAURU 2 asylum-seeker detention center conditions. On July 19, asylum seekers at the Australian-run detention center rioted following an announcement that Australia would implement stricter immigration policies (see section 2.d.). Police temporarily detained 150 asylum seekers at the prison and at the police station for questioning.
