  • Wanting, Not Waiting
    WINNERSdateline OF THE OVERSEAS PRESS CLUB AWARDS 2011 Wanting, Not Waiting 2012 Another Year of Uprisings SPECIAL EDITION dateline 2012 1 letter from the president ne year ago, at our last OPC Awards gala, paying tribute to two of our most courageous fallen heroes, I hardly imagined that I would be standing in the same position again with the identical burden. While last year, we faced the sad task of recognizing the lives and careers of two Oincomparable photographers, Tim Hetherington and Chris Hondros, this year our attention turns to two writers — The New York Times’ Anthony Shadid and Marie Colvin of The Sunday Times of London. While our focus then was on the horrors of Gadhafi’s Libya, it is now the Syria of Bashar al- Assad. All four of these giants of our profession gave their lives in the service of an ideal and a mission that we consider so vital to our way of life — a full, complete and objective understanding of a world that is so all too often contemptuous or ignorant of these values. Theirs are the same talents and accomplishments to which we pay tribute in each of our awards tonight — and that the Overseas Press Club represents every day throughout the year. For our mission, like theirs, does not stop as we file from this room. The OPC has moved resolutely into the digital age but our winners and their skills remain grounded in the most fundamental tenets expressed through words and pictures — unwavering objectivity, unceasing curiosity, vivid story- telling, thought-provoking commentary.

  • The Impact and Role of Social Media Networks on Arab Spring: Egyptian Revolution Case Study
    The Impact and Role of Social Media Networks on Arab Spring: Egyptian Revolution Case Study. Bc. Ahmed Fihaili Master thesis 2012/2013 TBU in Zlín, Faculty of Multimedia Communications 2 TBU in Zlín, Faculty of Multimedia Communications 3 TBU in Zlín, Faculty of Multimedia Communications 4 TBU in Zlín, Faculty of Multimedia Communications 5 Abstract: While in most countries, Social Media Networks (SMN) are used for leisure and business, there are places where those platforms have become tools for mass mobilization and pro- tests organization. Countries throughout the Arab world varied in their usage of social me- dia networks (SMN), but learned from watching others on how to use it effectively to en- gage the outside world and to broadcast the human rights abuses committed by their re- spective regimes. Social unrest began in Tunisia in December 2010 and quickly spread to countries across the Middle East and North Africa, most noticeably in Egypt, Tunis and Syria. In several of these countries, protests evolved into revolutions resulting in the over- throw of autocratic governments. These events, now known as the Arab Spring, have sig- nificantly changed MENA region, and in particular in Egypt as its resulted into the restruc- turing of the Egyptian regime The aim of this study is carried out based on two research themes: studying the impact and role of social media networks (SMN) in the Egyptian “Revolution” of 2011 according to activists and experts, and studying the role of social media sites from the viewpoint of Al- Jazeera and CNN news channels. For this aim, in the study, the researcher will use both qualitative and quantitative research methodology.

Penn State Journal of Law & International Affairs 2014 VOLUME 3 NO. 1 FOREWORD Claudio Grossman* International criminal law attempts to sanction crimes that have a global nature and impact. After World War II, the international community came together to begin addressing important international issues, including preventing future war and non-war related atrocities and crimes. From the International Military Tribunals established in the wake of World War II to the world’s first permanent International Criminal Court (ICC), a number of international bodies, treaties, and statutes have been formed in an effort to effectively administer criminal justice on an international level. Yet the administration and application of international criminal justice has faced significant hurdles and there are numerous opinions on the proper application, scope, and import of international criminal law.

  • Dialogue Program
    DIALOGUE PROGRAM INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND Ever since its foundation PASSIA has striven to promote free expression within Palestinian society and to foster a better understanding of Palestinian affairs, be they in the domestic or international context. In doing so, PASSIA has earned a reputation for providing a unique forum for dialogue and exchange and for serving as a catalyst for civic debate. Central to these efforts has been the presentation and analysis of a plurality of Palestinian perspectives and approaches through PASSIA’s Dialogue Program. Topics addressed and discussed cover a wide range of subjects broadly and specifically related to the Palestine Question, from historical aspects to the current Middle East Peace Process and internal Palestinian affairs. The PASSIA Dialogue Program comprises of roundtable meetings and briefings. As part of the former, speakers are invited (and sometimes a discussant as well) to lecture on a certain topic, followed by a discussion with the audience present. These meetings aim to promote thought and debate among Palestinians and between Palestinians and their foreign counterparts. Most of these meetings or ‘public lectures’ are organized in a hotel in Jerusalem or Ramallah, which offers the space and facilities needed to accommodate the anticipated number of participants (normally ranging between 40-120 people). Speakers, discussants and participants at these meetings include local and foreign figures from a rich diversity of backgrounds and schools of thought: Scholars, professionals and intellectuals from Palestine, Israel and abroad; members of Palestinian NGOs, political factions and the media, as well as representatives of the diplomatic corps. PASSIA Briefings are a venue for encounters, dialogue and discussions involving representatives and organizations from various backgrounds.
