Eritrea Researched and Compiled by the Refugee Documentation Centre of Ireland on 27 April 2010
Eritrea Researched and compiled by the Refugee Documentation Centre of Ireland on 27 April 2010 Are Catholics allowed to practice their religion freely in Eritrea? The Executive Summary (paragraph 1) of a report published by the Institute on Religion and Public Policy states: The status of Religious Freedom in Eritrea is atrocious. While a 1997 Constitution provides protections for freedom of religion and conscience, this Constitution has not been implemented. The country only recognizes 4 religious groups: the Eritrean Orthodox Church, the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Eritrea, Islam, and the Roman Catholic Church. Members of unregistered religious groups face harassment, imprisonment, torture, and, in some cases, death at the hands of state authorities. Even members of registered religious groups face harassment, imprisonment, and interference from the government. The religious freedom situation in Eritrea is widely recognized by both governmental and non-government actors and agencies to be among the worst in the world. (Institute on Religion and Public Policy (2009) Religious Freedom in Eritrea, p.1) In a section titled Government Interference and Abuses of Registered Religious Groups (paragraph 8) this report states: The government interferes in the everyday workings of registered religious groups at the highest levels. The Eritrean Orthodox Church, the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Eritrea, the Roman Catholic Church, and the Muslim community in Eritrea have all faced abuses and interference in their religious affairs at the hands of the government. The government required all four of the officially registered to submit reports on the sources of their funding as well as complete list of personnel and property. -

This diffusion rate easily dwarfs any other G-7 country, including Germany (313), the United Kingdom (352) and the U.S. (233). 45 out of the 120 different newspapers available carry a morning and evening edition. The five largest newspapers each sell more than four million copies daily, more than any of their largest Western counterparts such as Bild in Germany (3.9 mil.), The Sun in the U.K. (2.4 mil.) or USA Today in the U.S. -

Compared with conventional channels such as TV, newspapers or magazines, social media outlets truly leveled the playing field by giving all content owners equal access to a publishing service that is essentially: • Free • Direct • Instant • Uncensored • Global reach Created in March 2006, Twitter has, over the years, emerged as one of the most popular social networks worldwide. The company currently supports 330 million monthly active users (Q4 2017), with hundreds of millions of Tweets published daily. Virtually every aspect of noteworthy happenings can be found in the Twitter stream. News of many breaking events even made the first public appearance in the social space, not in mainstream media. Twitter feeds offer one of the largest and richest alternative datasets to help quantitative traders develop information-driven investment strategies. When matched against the pricing data on a post-event basis, individual Tweets can be assessed by their realized market impacts. Market-moving Tweets collected this way can then be studied by data scientists to train predictive NLP (Natural Language Processing) models.

BIENEN Perhaps most telling is the view of Professor Joseph Hoffman, someone who has devoted enormous time and energy to death penalty reform, spearheading death penalty reform efforts in both Illinois and Indiana and serving as Co-Chair and Reporter for the Massachusetts Governor‘s Council on Capital Punishment. Hoffman served as a member of an advisory group to discuss an earlier draft of this paper, and he strongly expressed the view that seeking reform of capital punishment in the political realm is futile. -
