  • Russia's Hardest Working Oligarch Takes Talents to Africa
    Russia’s Hardest Working Oligarch Takes Talents to Africa PONARS Eurasia Policy Memo No. 672 September 2020 Matt Maldonado1 The University of Texas at Austin In September 2019, Russian oligarch Konstantin Malofeev sat down for an interview with the Russian news outlet RBC and announced the launch of the International Agency of Sovereign Development (IASD). It was to be a brand-new Russian investment group set to make its public debut at the Russia-Africa Summit in Sochi later that year. Malofeev has been sanctioned by both the United States and the EU for his role in the Russian annexation of Crimea. He is the same “God’s Oligarch” whose ultra-conservative Tsargrad news network was banned from YouTube for “violation of legislation on sanctions and trade rules.” Now, IASD is positioning itself to be instrumental in a Russian effort to “Pivot back to Africa” after withdrawing during more than a decade of internal strife and international decline in the aftermath of the fall of the Soviet Union. Moscow recognizes the importance of Africa for trade and industry, and IASD’s Soviet nostalgia, anti-Western sentiment, and development funds would find consumers on the continent. It has the potential to be an influential alternative to Western and Chinese interests while attracting significantly less attention than, for example, the African operations of Evgeni Prigozhin and the Wagner Group. Organizational Debut, Outreach, and “Unworldly Connections” IASD presents itself as a global consultancy firm, assisting both African governments and Russian

  • Al Jazeera's Expansion: News Media Moments and Growth in Australia
    Al Jazeera’s Expansion: News Media Moments and Growth in Australia PhD thesis by publication, 2017 Scott Bridges Institute of Governance and Policy Analysis University of Canberra ABSTRACT Al Jazeera was launched in 1996 by the government of Qatar as a small terrestrial news channel. In 2016 it is a global media company broadcasting news, sport and entertainment around the world in multiple languages. Devised as an outward- looking news organisation by the small nation’s then new emir, Al Jazeera was, and is, a key part of a larger soft diplomatic and brand-building project — through Al Jazeera, Qatar projects a liberal face to the world and exerts influence in regional and global affairs. Expansion is central to Al Jazeera’s mission as its soft diplomatic goals are only achieved through its audience being put to work on behalf of the state benefactor, much as a commercial broadcaster’s profit is achieved through its audience being put to work on behalf of advertisers. This thesis focuses on Al Jazeera English’s non-conventional expansion into the Australian market, helped along as it was by the channel’s turning point coverage of the 2011 Egyptian protests. This so-called “moment” attracted critical and popular acclaim for the network, especially in markets where there was still widespread suspicion about the Arab network, and it coincided with Al Jazeera’s signing of reciprocal broadcast agreements with the Australian public broadcasters. Through these deals, Al Jazeera has experienced the most success with building a broadcast audience in Australia. After unpacking Al Jazeera English’s Egyptian Revolution “moment”, and problematising the concept, this thesis seeks to formulate a theoretical framework for a news media turning point.

  • Dibartolo European Bakery to Celebrate Grand Opening in Downtown Haddonfield
    DiBartolo European Bakery to Celebrate Grand Opening in Downtown Haddonfield Haddonfield, NJ, December 2, 2020 – DiBartolo European Bakery is pleased to announce the official Grand Opening of a second location in Haddonfield, NJ. The celebration will begin on Saturday, December 5, 2020, at 1pm with an outdoor ribbon-cutting ceremony with Haddonfield’s Deputy Mayor Jeff Kasko and Remi Fortunato, retail recruiter. The community is invited to stop by and enjoy complimentary pastries and punch from 1pm to 3pm. All who visit are asked to practice social distancing and adhere to face-covering requirements. You might recognize the DiBartolo name for the infamous custom cake creations of Al DiBartolo, Jr., a veteran of food TV shows like Food Network’s “Holiday Wars” and TLC’s “Next Great Baker, “to name a few. What began in 1969 as a family-owned and operated bakery in Pennsauken, NJ, evolved into a neighborhood staple in Collingswood, NJ, with quite a loyal following. The Collingswood location will continue to function both as a retail storefront and production bakery for custom specialty and wedding cakes. The new location will carry DiBartolo’s signature items, including Italian rum cake, pound cake, and cupcakes. In addition to these fan favorites, they’ve introduced an expansive new menu of specialty desserts, including macarons, eclairs, and new signature cakes like Mango Mousse, with layers of vanilla cake and mango mousse, and German Chocolate, layered chocolate cake with coconut filling, chocolate ganache, and toasted coconut. The intimate seating area adjacent to the glass bakery cases, packed with colorful pastries, is a perfect setting for enjoying a light lunch menu of soup, salads, and sandwiches like the Autostrada Panini with mortadella, coppa, soppressata, prosciutto cotto, fontina, pepperoncini mayo on Tuscan loaf or the Turkey, Pancetta, Avocado & Brie with fig and balsamic mayo on multigrain bread.

Thinking of how to draw a picture of the region makes me think of Francesco Goya's new work, especially if he was alive today. Perhaps this could be a conventional observation when you think of the Arab homeland; it's constantly a broad graphic representation, but I would argue that we could undoubtedly imagine this starting point by thinking alternatively about it.
