The aftermath of Civil War

Using an event-study methodology, this paper analyzes the aftermath of civil war in a cross-section of countries. It focuses on those experiences where the end of conflict marks the beginning of a relatively lasting peace. The paper considers 41 countries involved in internal wars in the period 1960-2003. In order to provide a comprehensive evaluation of the aftermath of war, the paper considers a host of social areas represented by basic indicators of economic performance, health and education, political development, demographic trends, and conflict and security issues. For each of these indicators, the paper first compares the post- and pre-war situations and then examines their dynamic trends during the post-conflict period. It conducts this analysis both in absolute and relative terms, the latter in relation to control groups of otherwise similar countries. The paper concludes that, even though war has devastating effects and its aftermath can be immensely difficult, when the end of war marks the beginning of lasting peace, recovery and improvement are indeed achieved.

War and National Renewal: Civil Religion and Blood Sacrifice in American Culture

Wars are often associated with a rhetoric of renewal or new beginnings. This essay explores this claim through the lens of civil religion and a recent book by Carolyn Marvin and David Ingle, Blood Sacrifice and the Nation, which combines Emile Durkheim with R��n�� Girard in proposing that modern national cohesion depends on blood sacrifice. I unpack some of the paradoxes raised by this theory of national renewal in the context of 9/11, with a special focus on the sacred status of the flag and the special attention given to uniformed serviceman in the American body politic.

Mercado del libro y empresas editoriales entre el Centenario de Independencias y la Guerra Civil espa��ola: la editorial Sudamericana

[spa]Las estrategias comerciales de los libreros y editores espa��oles para desembarcar en los mercados americanos son analizadas en un contexto signado por las tendencias americanistas en el plano pol��tico y las iniciativas regeneracionistas en el econ��mico durante el periodo que va del Centenario de las Independencias hasta la Guerra Civil espa��ola. Se abordan algunas de las pol��ticas empresariales editoriales implementadas en Catalu��a, el liderazgo ejercido por esta regi��n como epicentro del proyecto hispano, y finalmente las condiciones que permitieron la creaci��n de la editorial Sudamericana en Buenos Aires ante la inminencia del triunfo franquista. Los ejes de estudio son las estrategias editoriales y comerciales; el peso de las asociaciones y corporaciones patronales del libro; y los v��nculos tejidos con el sector intelectual argentino en las primeras d��cadas del siglo XX a trav��s de delegaciones consulares, instituciones culturales y c��maras espa��olas de comercio.

Incidencia de los actores internacionales no estatales en los conflictos internos. Estudio de caso: la participaci��n de las empresas militares privadas ���Executive Outcomes��� y ���Sandline International��� en la guerra civil de Sierra Leona (1991-2002)

La Participaci��n de las Empresas Militares Executive Outcomes y Sandline International en el conflicto de Sierra Leona fue una de las primeras veces en las que se vieron en escena a estos actores confluyendo en un nuevo orden internacional; y este estudio de caso busca determinar la manera de actuar de estas empresas y su incidencia en el conflicto. El caso de Sierra Leona es uno de los principales acercamientos a este nuevo fen��meno, que empez�� a ejercer funciones que tradicionalmente le correspond��an a los Estados y que han llevado a una privatizaci��n de la seguridad. Por medio de este estudio de caso se busca tambi��n determinar cu��les son las falencias y los retos que acarrean a las Empresas Militares Privadas en cuanto a su intervenci��n en los conflictos internos. El caso de Sierra Leona es fundamental en tanto fue uno de los conflictos m��s intensos desarrollados en ��frica en la d��cada de los 90; y fue el momento en el cual las Empresas Militares Privadas empezaron a estar en la mira internacional a causa de estas intervenciones que generaron tanto cr��ticas negativas como positivas.

A reconstru����o hist��rica da cabanagem em ���Lealdade��� e da guerra civil mo��ambicana em ���As Duas sombras do rio���

Nesta tese, pretendemos analisar comparativamente a reconstru����o hist��rica da Cabanagem e da Guerra Civil Mo��ambicana nos romances Lealdade (1997), de M��rcio Souza e As duas sombras do rio (2003), de Jo��o Paulo Borges Coelho. Para tanto, apresentaremos um breve percurso hist��rico da coloniza����o brasileira e mo��ambicana, bem como o per��odo da independ��ncia e p��s-independ��ncia, al��m do percurso te��rico sobre o romance hist��rico, resist��ncia, mem��ria, bem como a teoria sobre o espa��o, nesse caso o rio, que utilizamos como ferramenta de an��lise. Utilizando o rio como fio condutor de nossa an��lise. Na obra de Borges Coelho, a an��lise foi feita a partir das travessias das personagens pelos rios que foram desencadeadas pela chegada da guerra civil. Fixamos nossa leitura em Le��nidas Ntsato personagem que metaforiza Mo��ambique dividido em dois pela guerra civil e destacamos o papel do narrador neste romance. Na narrativa de M��rcio Souza acompanhamos as viagens de Fernando, narrador do romance, que tem sua biografia entrela��ada aos acontecimentos que desencadear��o a Cabanagem anos mais tarde. Cada um com seu estilo, os dois romancistas revisitam as agruras das duas guerras que tem como palco o Norte do Brasil e de Mo��ambique que s��o espa��os perif��ricos desde os tempos coloniais.

News in engineering education in Spain effective from 2010 in presence of external changes and mixed crisis, looking mostly to agro and civil engineers.

The engineering careers models were diverse in Europe, and are adopting now in Spain the Bolonia process for European Universities. Separated from older Universities, that are in part technically active, Civil Engineering (Caminos, Canales y Puertos) started at end of 18th century in Spain adopting the French models of Upper Schools for state civil servants with exam at entry. After 1800 intense wars, to conserve forest regions Ingenieros de Montes appeared as Upper School, and in 1855 also the Ingenieros Agr��nomos to push up related techniques and practices. Other Engineers appeared as Upper Schools but more towards private factories. These ES got all adapted Lower Schools of Ingeniero Tecnico. Recently both grew much in number and evolved, linked also to recognized Professions. Spanish society, into European Community, evolved across year 2000, in part highly well, but with severe discordances, that caused severe youth unemployment with 2008-2011 crisis. With Bolonia process high formal changes step in from 2010-11, accepted with intense adaptation. The Lower Schools are changing towards the Upper Schools, and both that have shifted since 2010-11 various 4-years careers (Grado), some included into the precedent Professions, and diverse Masters. Acceptation of them to get students has started relatively well, and will evolve, and acceptation of new grades for employment in Spain, Europe or outside will be essential. Each Grado has now quite rigid curricula and programs, MOODLE was introduced to connect pupils, some specific uses of Personal Computers are taught in each subject. Escuela de Agronomos centre, reorganized with its old name in its precedent buildings at entrance of Campus Moncloa, offers Grados of Agronomic Engineering and Science for various public and private activities for agriculture, Alimentary Engineering for alimentary activities and control, Agro-Environmental Engineering more related to environment activities, and in part Biotechnology also in laboratories in Campus Monte-Gancedo for Biotechnology of Plants and Computational Biotechnology. Curricula include Basics, Engineering, Practices, Visits, English, ?project of end of career?, Stays. Some masters will conduce to specific professional diploma, list includes now Agro-Engineering, Agro-Forestal Biotechnology, Agro and Natural Resources Economy, Complex Physical Systems, Gardening and Landscaping, Rural Genie, Phytogenetic Resources, Plant Genetic Resources, Environmental Technology for Sustainable Agriculture, Technology for Human Development and Cooperation.

A Land That Has Yet to Heal: The Burmese Civil War (1948 ��� present)

Since its independence from Great Britain in 1948, the state of Burma has been at war with itself. Ethnic and religious tension fuel the conflict and has led to territorial disputes while no resolution to this strife is expected under a fragile and corrupt central government. Additionally, proxy wars have delayed any peaceful negotiations. The combinations of failing social welfare programs and prolonged peace talks have led many Burmese people join the military as soldiers in either the Burmese military or any one of the numerous ethnic paramilitary groups in the country. Human rights violations are common in Burma, including rape, pillaging, and ethnic cleansing. Essentially, Burma has had the longest ongoing civil war due to combination of grievances, many of which predate the 21st century.
