Corruption and Governance in the DRC
Author: Muzong W. KodiPublisher:
ISBN:
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 128
Book Description
The new government in the DRC is starting to implement its governance programme and planning to revisit the national anti-corruption strategy. The temptation is high to move fast on all fronts but it is important to assess the immediate past and, especially, the transition period from 2003 to 2006, so that lessons which could inform policy decisions can be drawn. This monograph makes a useful contribution to a review of the transition period. It assesses the strengths and weaknesses of the anti-corruption institutions and laws which were in force, evaluating their success or failure and identifying factors that supported or inhibited their effectiveness. It further identifies gaps in national laws and regulations that could be prioritised to make them compliant with international legal instruments. Finally, it makes recommendations about what measures should be prioritised with a view to improving the legal framework and the relevant institutions.

May '68 and Its Afterlives
Author: Kristin RossPublisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 0226728005
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 250
Book Description
During May 1968, students and workers in France united in the biggest strike and the largest mass movement in French history. Protesting capitalism, American imperialism, and Gaullism, 9 million people from all walks of life, from shipbuilders to department store clerks, stopped working. The nation was paralyzed—no sector of the workplace was untouched. Yet, just thirty years later, the mainstream image of May '68 in France has become that of a mellow youth revolt, a cultural transformation stripped of its violence and profound sociopolitical implications. Kristin Ross shows how the current official memory of May '68 came to serve a political agenda antithetical to the movement's aspirations. She examines the roles played by sociologists, repentant ex-student leaders, and the mainstream media in giving what was a political event a predominantly cultural and ethical meaning. Recovering the political language of May '68 through the tracts, pamphlets, and documentary film footage of the era, Ross reveals how the original movement, concerned above all with the question of equality, gained a new and counterfeit history, one that erased police violence and the deaths of participants, removed workers from the picture, and eliminated all traces of anti-Americanism, anti-imperialism, and the influences of Algeria and Vietnam. May '68 and Its Afterlives is especially timely given the rise of a new mass political movement opposing global capitalism, from labor strikes and anti-McDonald's protests in France to the demonstrations against the World Trade Organization in Seattle.
Sergei M. Eisenstein
Author: Naum KleimanPublisher: Amsterdam University Press
ISBN: 9048517117
Category : Performing Arts

Pages : 546
Book Description
Sovjetregisseur en filmtheoreticus Sergei M. Eisenstein werkte in 1946 en 1947 een jaar voor zijn dood aan een algemene geschiedenis van de cinema. De manier waarop hij de geschiedschrijving van van de cinema benadert, is tegelijk fascinerend in haar ambitie en uiterst modern in haar methode. Eisenstein presenteert hier een virtuele wereldkaart van alle aan de bioscoop gerelateerde media, en ontwikkelt op hetzelfde moment een methode voor het schrijven van een geschiedenis die net als de cinema is gebaseerd op montage. De teksten van Eisenstein worden begeleid door een reeks kritische essays, geschreven door enkele van 's werelds meest gekwalificeerde Eisensteinkenners.
