Chapter I deals with aspects of the mandate and methods of work. Chapter II summarizes his activities in 1999. Chapter III contains a summary of communications sent by the Special Rapporteur and replies from Governments, from 11 December 1998 to 15 December 1999. The Special Rapporteur transmitted information to or received responses from 77 countries. He sent more than 147 urgent appeals on behalf of more than 450 identified individuals. Observations by the Special Rapporteur on the situation with respect to allegations of torture in several countries are included. During the period under review the Special Rapporteur undertook four missions. The report on the visit to Romania (19-29 April) is contained in Addendum 3 to the present report; the report on the visit to Cameroon (12-20 May) in Addendum 2; and the report on the visit to Kenya (20-29 September) in Addendum 4. He also undertook a joint mission to East Timor with the Special Rapporteurs on extrajudicial, summary or arbitrary execution and on violence against women, its causes and consequences (see A/54/660, transmitted to the Commission in document E/CN.4/2000/115). Regarding country visits, the Government of China has invited the Special Rapporteur to visit that country. The Permanent Representative of Azerbaijan to the United Nations Office at Geneva gave an initial positive reaction to the Special Rapporteur's request sent in 1999 to visit his country. The Deputy Permanent Representative of Brazil, pending a formal invitation from the Government, expressed his hope that a mission by the Special Rapporteur to Brazil would come to fruition. The Special Rapporteur's requests to visit India, Indonesia, Bahrain, Egypt, Tunisia and Algeria have not resulted in invitations. No mandate-related issues have arisen during the year under review. The methods of work of the Special Rapporteur have been those followed previously, as approved most recently by the Commission in its resolution 1999/32, paragraph 21. In particular, he has continued to seek cooperation with holders of other Commission mandates to avoid duplication of activity in respect of country-specific initiatives. A significant development for the mandate was the invitation, contained in General Assembly resolution 53/139, paragraph 24, and Commission resolution 1999/32, paragraph 29, for the Special Rapporteur to present an interim report to the fifty-fourth session of the General Assembly on overall trends and developments with regard to his mandate. In November 1999, he accordingly submitted a report (A/54/426) to the Third Committee of the General Assembly under agenda item 116 (a). Annexed to his main report are the Principles on the effective documentation of torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment, from the Manual on Effective Investigation and Documentation of Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment, also known as the Istanbul Protocol. This manual is intended to provide international guidelines for the assessment of individuals who allege torture and ill- treatment, for the investigation of cases of alleged torture and for the E/CN.4/2000/9 page 5 reporting of such findings to judicial and investigative bodies. The Special Rapporteur is of the view that the manual will be an important tool for States in carrying out investigations concerning allegations of torture or ill- treatment. Introduction 1. The mandate of the Special Rapporteur on torture, assigned since April 1993 to Sir Nigel Rodley (United Kingdom), was renewed for three more years by the Commission on Human Rights in its resolution 1998/38. In conformity with this Resolution, the Special Rapporteur hereby submits his seventh report to the Commission. Chapter I deals with aspects of the mandate and methods of work. Chapter II summarizes his activities in 1999. Chapter III contains a summary of communications sent by the Special Rapporteur and replies from Governments, from 11 December 1998 to 15 December 1999. Chapter IV contains the Special Rapporteur's conclusions and recommendations. 2. In addition to the above-mentioned resolution, several other resolutions adopted or reaffirmed by the Commission on Human Rights at its fifty-fifth session are also pertinent within the framework of the mandate and have been taken into consideration by the Special Rapporteur in examining and analysing the information brought to his attention. These resolutions are, in particular:

When Is an Agrarian Not an Agrarian? A Reading of Robert Penn Warren’s “The Briar Patch” Clare Byrne King’s College, London Critics have tended to fall into one of two camps on the matter of Robert Penn Warren’s participation in the Southern Agrarian movement. They have either agreed with Hugh Ruppersburg that “Agrarianism is…the essential premise on which [Warren’s] American explorations have rested” (30), or with Paul Conkin that “never” did Warren “ever write a single essay in which he committed himself, philosophically, to any version of Agrarian ideology” (105). As a result, his literary output has often either been read as a direct expression of Southern Agrarianism, or exonerated from any connection to it. I propose that Warren’s relationship to Agrarianism was much more complex and conflicted than either of these positions allows, and that this is evident even in the essays he explicitly contributed to the movement.

  • The Electoral Geography of European Radical Left Parties Since 1990

    The Electoral Geography of European Radical Left Parties Since 1990

    ‘Red Belts’ anywhere? The electoral geography of European radical left parties since 1990 Petar Nikolaev Bankov, BA, MSc Submitted in the fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Social and Political Sciences College of Social Sciences University of Glasgow January 2020 Abstract European radical left parties (RLPs) are on the rise across Europe. Since 1990 they became an integral part of the party systems across the continent and enjoy an increased level of government participation and policy clout. The main source for this improved position is their increasing electoral support in the past three decades, underpinned by a diversity of electoral geographies. Understood as the patterns of territorial distribution of electoral support across electoral units, the electoral geographies are important, as they indicate the effects of the socio-economic and political changes in Europe on these parties. This thesis studies the sources of the electoral geographies of European RLPs since 1990. The existing literature on these parties highlighted the importance of their electoral geographies for understanding their electoral and governmental experiences. Yet, to this date, it lacks systematic research on these territorial distributions of electoral support in their own right. Such research is important also for the general literature on the spatial distribution of electoral performance. In particular, these works paid limited attention to the relevance of their theories for individual political parties, as they
