阿巴斯能否续写巴以和平

今年3月,巴勒斯坦民族权力机 构首次在阿拉法特主席之下设立了总理职务,并任命马哈茂德·阿巴斯担当这一要职。在巴以和平长期处于僵局的情况下,巴勒斯坦的这一举措引起了国际社会的广泛关注。     

阿巴斯:一个人的和平?

2005年1月15日,巴解组织执委会主席马哈茂德·阿巴斯正式宣誓就任巴勒斯坦民族权力机构主席,宣告了“后阿拉法特时代”的正式来临。阿巴斯上台后积极实施新政,巴内部局势和中东开始朝积极方向发展,“和平之窗”正在开启。但是,风度优雅、衣着考究的阿巴斯有能力将巴勒斯坦带出困境, 实现和平吗?     

双周聚焦·环球凉热

“路线图”计划并没有提出放弃难民“回归权”,是以色列要求把这作为实施计划的先决条件。“回归权”属于最终地位谈判范畴,不是现在讨论的话题。 ——伴随“阿拉法特时代”结束,难民出身、曾签署1993年奥斯陆协议的巴勒斯坦总理阿巴斯掌握了话语权。他在听取巴立法委员会辩论后说,有些人根本就没有仔细读过“路线图”计划的内容就发表评论。

新闻眼·天下

阿巴斯要对库赖摊牌10月3日,巴勒斯坦立法委员会趁总理库赖正在国外接受心脏病治疗,以压倒多数通过了对库赖内阁的不信任案,理由是库赖未能管住哈马斯等激进组织手中的武器。库赖是在阿巴斯两年前撂挑子时被阿拉法特任命为总理的。阿巴斯重掌大权后,库赖获留任总理,但他涉嫌包庇阿拉法特时期“有腐败污点的老兵”,一直遭到改革派议员的诟病。阿巴斯在笑纳大笔美援之后,试图“杯酒释兵权”,让阿翁旧臣“告老还乡”。变化早有征兆。9月7日,阿拉法特的堂弟穆萨·阿拉法特被一伙蒙面人从家中拖到街上乱枪打死。这位昔日的巴安全部队总管在巴人     

追访阿拉法特

阿拉法特是国际政坛上一个著名的传奇人物,他为巴勒斯坦争取独立与解放奔波操劳了一生,在国际上享有崇高的地位与声望。20O0年6月下旬的一天,我作为新华社记者,在巴勒斯坦约旦河西岸的拉马拉总统府见到了这位巴勒斯坦领袖,并对他进行了专访。这次采访给我留下深刻印象,让我久久难以忘怀。     

"不死鸟"--阿拉法特的传奇经历

1929年出生的阿拉法特一生充满传奇,在其长达数十年的革命生涯中,曾多次逢凶化吉,奇迹般地与死神擦肩而过.阿拉法特自1961年创建"法塔赫",率领巴勒斯坦人民打响武装抗以的第一枪以来,遭到过以色列多次暗杀、经历过飞机失事、重大车祸等各种险情,但总能逢凶化吉,遇难成祥,因此,人们常这位巴勒斯坦事业的奠基人和创始人称为中东政坛的"不死鸟".     

阿拉法特逝世与中东局势

阿拉法特的病逝对中东时局的发展具有举足轻重的影响,他的去世使巴方内部和本已动荡不定的中东时局面临诸多变数.阿拉法特的去世,标志着一个时代的光荣和梦想走向终结,一个新的时期,也可以说是巴勒斯坦和中东地区的后阿拉法特时代来临.     

巴勒斯坦建国:庙堂与江湖

阿巴斯在"入联"过程中"言出必行"、不畏美国压力的表现为其本人及"法塔赫"赢得了更多巴勒斯坦民众的支持。原本多数民众并不赞成此时入联",但看到阿巴斯决意去了联合国,"那民众就会支持他走下去"。     

巴以冲突升级及其取向

最近以来,巴勒斯坦与以色列局势再度急转直下,冲突不断升级.巴极端分子在以境内制造一系列爆炸事件,以色列则用包括导弹在内的重型武器袭击阿拉法特府邸,并重新派军队进入巴控区.以内阁还作出决议,将巴勒斯坦民族权力机构定性为"支持恐怖主义的实体".以政界要求除掉阿拉法特的呼声甚嚣尘上.巴以冲突陷入空前危机,大有失控的危险.     

Trends in Governance in Further Education

Abstract

The governance of further education colleges has two main phases since the passing of the Education Act 1944 – the period when further education colleges were under local authority control and the period from ‘vesting day’ on 1 April 1993 when colleges became incorporated and further education corporations were formed as charities. This review is primarily concerned with the landscape of college governance since 1 April 1993 and draws upon some of the very limited number of research studies into the practice of further education governance. The experience and contribution of the key governance players – chair of the corporation, governors, the principal, the senior staff, the clerk to the corporation – are discussed. Throughout the period since 1993, college governance has operated within a policy framework provided by government and, to a greater or lesser extent, the implementation of those policies by agencies of government. In simple terms, the pattern may seem to be creativity (in the early years), compliance (following some high profile college governance collapses), micro-management (through the Learning and Skills Council years) and now the most open, imaginative phase as the current government encourages the strong colleges to play a bigger part in local education provision. Perhaps now is the time when the experience of college governance to date is able to draw upon its considerable strengths and show what the accumulation of governance capital can achieve.     

Trust in public institutions in Russia: The lowest in the world

The article's topic is the attitudes of the Russians toward their social institutions. As it will be shown, Russia is a country, much more than any other, that mistrusts its social institutions, political institutions in particular. There is no one institution that can garner more than 40 to 50 percent of the nation's trust. Indeed, in terms of their lack of confidence in social institutions, the Russians are behind not only the most advanced countries in the world, but even countries known for their unstable political systems, such as Colombia or Nigeria.     

Impacts of Bribery in Healthcare in Vietnam

This study explores how bribery in the health sector is associated with people’s well-being and with universal health coverage. By using the data of Vietnam from 2011 and 2012, this study reveals a negative correlation between the prevalence of bribery and health outcomes and the health insurance coverage. Additionally, the results indicate that bribers feel neither cured of injury/disease nor satisfied with healthcare service quality. Furthermore, there is a significantly negative correlation between the belief of the necessity to give a bribe and the health insurance enrolment decision.     

Research and productivity in wheat in Israel

The introduction of the new Green Revolution wheat varieties to Israel is reviewed and analysed. It was found that the first stage varieties (developed from local Mexican wheats) did not have a significant impact on yields in Israel. Dwarf varieties and new crosses bred in Israel from Mexican genetic material contributed significantly to yield increases. Returns to local research are estimated. Conclusions about the role of the International Research System are drawn.
