INTRODUCTION Since the early 1990s, trafficking in persons has been among the major human rights problems in the transition countries of Central and Eastern Europe. In more recent years, however, "the focus of human traffickers ha[s] shifted to... Central Asia, a region fraught with social, political, and economic tension."' Existing research on the issue suggests that the fastest growth rates of trafficking are currently observed in the former Soviet Union, including Central Asia,2 and estimates that the region "is becoming the most important geographical source of trafficking in women in Asia."3 Further, trafficking in persons is a significant problem in the Central Asian countries of Kazakhstan, the Kyrgyz Republic, * Mohamed Y.

  • Osce Conflict Management in Central Asia Fighting Windmills Like Don Quixote
    security and human rights 27 (2016) 479-497 brill.com/shrs osce Conflict Management in Central Asia Fighting Windmills like Don Quixote Pál Dunay Professor of nato and European Security Issues, George C. Marshall European Center for Security Studies in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany Abstract Conflicts and their management in Central Asia have never been prioritised by the osce although five states of the region are among its participating states. This has been due to that unlike in some other parts of the post-Soviet space most of the con- flicts did not threaten with military escalation, and the intensity of strategic rivalry is less noticeable in this distant part of the osce area than closer to the heart of E urope. The fact Russia is not a direct party to the conflicts in Central Asia also reduces the interests of many participating states. There was one high intensity conflict in the re- gion, the Tajik civil war that came too early for the osce. Lower intensity conflicts, ranging from border skirmishes, disputes about access to water, violation of rights of national minority groups, rigged elections are monitored and their resolutions are fa- cilitated by the organisation. Some of them, like the 2010 Kyrgyz-Uzbek conflict had such short shelf-life internationally that no consensus-based inter-governmental organisation could have effectively intervened into it. The osce has been successful in conflict management when the party or parties also wanted to break the stale-mate that the Organization could facilitate. Domestic change in some Central Asian states is essential for advancing the osces cooperative security approach.

  • George Anderson
    1960 REUNION NOTES George Anderson To think it was 50 years ago that we started on our adventure. Since the last reunion I retired for a second time from Northrop Grumman/TRW. My wife still works but we do cruises, visit Honolulu, and love Las Vegas. I am coaching 9-and 10-year olds in Pony Baseball. Cannot help loving the game. We also attend the Chargers and Lakers games. That is our main hobby with gardening the yard. Sorry I can not come, but we are off on a cruise. Joe Banks I have a new hobby: making canes and walking sticks. Standing by as my wife remodels our house, working continues as a Pediatrician and ADHD consultant, staying in touch with FIJ buddies, playing golf! Priceless. Diana Everhart Barcket Since our 45th reunion I retired from substitute teaching which has enabled me to spend even more time with my “local” 6-and 4-year old granddaughters. In the past five years I have had two nice trips and a wonderful family reunion this past summer. Living in the area has its advantages even though getting out of bed at 5:00 am can usually be a huge hassle! Jon Barker I have continued to live in delightful retirement with my love of 44 years, Elaine. We enjoy our daughter, Katie B. Abdallah (OWU 1993) and our granddaughter, Ayah (2020?). I deeply enjoy preparing fresh sermons for “gill-in” parish work in The United Methodist parishes. I am involved in chaplaincies for the American Legion, Submarine Vets, Fire Departments and EMS Squads and local Police Departments.

As it is well believed that innovation drives the economic growth, and it is considered an essential element in building a sustainable economy based on knowledge. Innovation does not just pop out of nothing. It is the result of policies and initiatives supported and implemented not only by the government, but also by all sectors as well. These initiatives aim to create a fully integrated environment based on knowledge and Information Technology, an environment that encourages innovation from within, and engages citizens to be part of its growing structure. In general, innovative governments believe that growth heavily depends on developing human resources, as they are their most important assets and are the pillar of economic rise that governments aim for. The United States is a model to be looked at in the feld of innovation. Its economy has benefted a lot from the investments in both private and government sectors in the felds of science, engineering, and technology. These investments were the reason for creating millions of jobs in the private sectors; they have also contributed to building entire industries, and pushed the USA to pioneer in many areas including health care and communication.
