  • Parliamentary Assembly Assemblée Parlementaire
    Parliamentary Assembly Assemblée parlementaire Freedom of the press and the working conditions of journalists in conflict zones Doc. 10521 26 April 005 Report Committee on Culture, Science and Education Rapporteur: Mr Josef Jarab, Czech Republic, Liberal, Democratic and Reformers’ Group Summary The right to freedom of expression and information constitutes one of the essential foundations of democratic society. In conflict situations and wars, human rights and international humanitarian law are often violated. It is thus indispensable that the public receive information about such conflicts and wars. As others who decide to work in conflict areas, journalists take consciously a special risk by working there. They do so in order to provide news and comment about such conflicts and thus serve the public. Florence Aubenas and Hussein Hanoun al-Saadi were kidnapped on 5 January 2005 and Sorin Dumitru Miscoci,Marie-Jeanne Ion and Eduard Ovidiu Ohanesian are hostages since 28 March 2005. They are not the first journalists kidnapped while working in Iraq. Other journalists were murdered or disappeared and many more civilians became victims as well. The Parliamentary Assembly calls for the release of the hostages and asks the Secretary General of the Council of Europe and the Committee of Ministers to follow the situation. I. Draft resolution [HTLink to the adopted textTH] 1. The Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe recalls the importance of freedom of expression and information in the media for democratic society and for each individual. It constitutes a core value guaranteed throughout Europe by the European Convention on Human Rights. The situation of war or conflict does not remove the importance of adequate provision of information through the media; rather to the contrary, it enhances its relevance.

  • The Environmental in Security
    The Environmental in Security Securitization Theory and Russian Environmental Security Policy Erdem Lamazhapov Master Thesis Peace and Conflict Studies 45 credits Department of Political Science Faculty of Social Sciences UNIVERSITY OF OSLO June 2020 Word Count: 34,939 The Environmental in Security: Securitization Theory and Russian Environmental Security Policy II © Erdem Lamazhapov 2020 The Environmental in Security: Securitization Theory and Russian Environmental Security Policy Erdem Lamazhapov http://www.duo.uio.no/ Trykk: Fridtjof Nansens Instituttet III Abstract Environmental security is one of the non-military aspects of security in international security studies, making it both misunderstood and mysterious in its ideational content. This thesis presents an application of the securitization theory in the context of securitization of the environment in Russia. Applying quantitative document stream and relative power methods and qualitative methods of discourse analysis, I draw upon a database of Russian legal and administrative documents from 1987 to 2019. Finding the core assumptions of the securitization theory correct, this thesis challenges it in regards to the possibility of distinction that security is an area beyond politics, whereas safety is a part of normal politics. Providing insight into the intentions and moves of key securitizing actors, as well as referent objects of security, this thesis concentrates on both international and domestic aspects of environmental securitization in Russia. Designed as an embedded mixed-methods case study, the thesis confirms its findings in subunit analysis of securitization of the environment by Russia during the NATO Operation Allied Force and in the Arctic. The thesis finds that it is difficult to characterize security as being beyond politics, as well as desecuritization in the Russian context is improbable.

  • The Impact of Eu Enlargement on the Russian Federation
    ROMANIAN JOURNAL OF EUROPEAN AFFAIRS VOL. 4 NO. 3, 2004 THE IMPACT OF EU ENLARGEMENT ON THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION Alfred E. Kellermann* ABSTRACT: EU Enlargement is a consequence of the success story of the creation of the European Communities, as many applicant countries were attracted to the new legal order based on the rule of law, rather than to an order or disorder based on the rule of politics. As from May 1st 2004, the EU enlargement, unprecedented in its size, marks a historic milestone for the European Union and its Member States, and also for the whole continent. Given this new context, the EU has to find and define new cooperation partnerships with its neighbours. A major partner, not to be neglected in this new policy is by all means Russia. The first Summit between the enlarged EU and Russia held in Moscow on 21 May 2004 was the first high-level meeting of the 25 EU and Russia following the successful conclusion of negotiations between the European Commission and Russia on the extension of the EU-Russia Partnership and Cooperation Agreement (PCA) to the ten new EU Member States. The Summit calls for the reinforcement of EU-Russia relations via the creation of Four Common Spaces: a common economic space (with specific reference to environment and energy); a common space of Freedom, Security and Justice; a field of external security; as well as a space of research and education including culture. The next step will be to define shared priorities and concrete measures for each of the Four Common Spaces in a mutually agreed Action Plan.

  • Business Quarterly (Autumn 2018)
    Autumn 2018 Autumn Safety, Health, Environment & Security With AEB updates on: safety leadership, climate policy, urban mining, waste recycling, transport security. AEB Business Quarterly | Autumn 2018 Introduction | Dear readers, Welcome to the Autumn 2018 Business Quarterly! We commence a new business season with a publication related to the safety, health, environment and security (SHES) issues. There is no need to elaborate on the utmost significance of this topic—it speaks for itself. SHES problems affect each of us in various ways, and we should strive to take appropriate measures to tackle them. Nowadays, more and more businesses have to be engaged into development of up- to-date technologies and innovative solutions to address a myriad of safety, health, environment and security issues. The articles included in the magazine cover a broad range of SHES topics. To be more specific, they explore the evolu- tion of the safety leadership concept, study companies’ investment in safety as a way to increase productivity, review the benefits of behaviour based safety approach to be used at workplaces, analyse new digital tools enhancing industrial production management, and scrutinise legal aspects of medical inspections for employees. Another bunch of articles provides extra insight into specifically environmental matters. The authors grab readers’ atten- tion by introducing the notion of urban mining, describe selection criteria of electronics waste recyclers, and reflect on trends in the climate change policy with regard to the Paris and the Kyoto Agreements. A separate article deals with security challenges within the transportation industry and cargo theft in particular. I would like to express genuine gratitude to the members of the AEB Safety, Health, Environment & Security Committee for their efforts invested in the publication.

  • Cultural Diversity of the North Caucasus
    Parliamentary Assembly Assemblée parlementaire For debate in the Standing Committee — see Rule 15 of the Rules of Procedure Doc. 10869 7 April 2006 Cultural diversity of the North Caucasus Report Committee on Culture, Science and Education Rapporteur : Mrs Anne Brasseur, Luxembourg, Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe Summary The North Caucasus, is a unique region of the Russian Federation where, in a limited area, a great number of people and ethnic groups cohabit with their different languages, religions and cultures. This cultural diversity can be a source of conflict, but it can also contribute to regional stability if emphasis is placed on intercultural and inter-religious dialogue, on respect for national identities and on the promotion of cultures and languages. It is recommended that the Committee of Ministers and the Government of the Russian Federation develop, in close co-operation, a medium and long term strategy for cultural and educational policies for the North Caucasus that take account of the multi-ethnic and multi-faith characteristics of the region, in the framework of respect for human rights, while also drawing on experiences elsewhere in Europe.
