The Gulf Cooperation Council, which was established on May 25, 1981, is examined in this study. This regional organization is composed of Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, Oman and the United Arab Emirates. Using a regionalism theory as an analytical framework, the study analyzes this regional grouping in relation to its integrative schemes in terms of politics, economy, culture, defense and security. Both primary and secondary sources were utilized in this study. This dissertation is based on the premise that the formation of the GCC is in response to the historic, geographic, political, economic, strategic and cultural realities of the Gulf region. It is also based on the assumption that the establishment of the GCC is by and large in harmony with the political and ideological objectives of the member states. The study shows that the six states have very much in common in terms of history, language, religion, social and political systems. It also attempts to illustrate how the dramatic events in the Gulf region played a key role in the establishment of the GCC. It shows that these events, including the Soviet presence in Afghanistan, the Iranian revolution, and the Iran-Iraq war were the catalysts that hastened cooperation among the six states which in turn led to the formation of this regional grouping. The findings show that the GCC is a natural development in the evolution of cooperation among the similar social systems of the Gulf region. The GCC will help its small member states achieve certain goals collectively that could not be achieved individually. Moreover, in the face of external threats and internal disruption, these states must unite their efforts to survive. The analysis also shows that on a nationalist level the GCC is a viable vehicle for the promotion of Arab unity in the context of the Gulf. In addition, due to the member states’ small domestic market, the GCC offers a useful forum for economic cooperation. On the other hand, the study shows that the GCC states cannot defend themselves against a major offensive by a regional power. Finally, this study strongly recommends that to achieve a balance of power in the Gulf region, the possibility of adding new members to the GCC, such as Iraq and North Yemen must take a high priority.

zcan December, 2006, 217 pages. This study has focused on analyzing the women trafficking in Turkey and the international cooperation and interventions which Turkey has done in years between 2004 and 2006. While mentioning efforts on combating human trafficking and international cooperation and interventions, the support of International Organization for Migration (IOM), the leading intergovernmental organization working against trafficking, which Turkey became member in 2004, should be mentioned as well. This study is trying to show the efforts of Turkey in the situation of combating with an organized crime, a gross human rights violation-especially after becoming member of the International Organization for Migration. Before discussing the situation and efforts in Turkey on counter trafficking the realization of women&rsquo
s rights the emergence of the women&rsquo
s discourse within the international arena and the international debate on trafficking especially after the Trafficking in Persons Report (TIP) have been introduced and discussed in detail. Such a beginning facilitated conceptualization of (1) the evolution of the emergence of conscious on trafficking crime in the international arena (2) the sprout of the idea and perception of &ldquo
combating trafficking crime&rdquo
in Turkish society and (3) the transformation of the Turkish context related to trafficking issues in the light of discussions emerged by the support of IOM Turkey.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
This thesis aspires to assess the explanatory value of different theories of international cooperation for the case of the world trade regime of GATT/WTO and subsequently strives to reach a satisfactory interpretation of the instance of cooperation. The world trade regime embarked on a process of transformation with the signing of the Marrakech Agreements of 15th April 1994. The event marked the conclusion of the Uruguay Round and, with the establishment of the WTO, the beginning of a new era for the world trade regime. The thesis endeavours to establish the substance of the regime change from GATT to the WTO. It outlines the most significant provisions of the agreement of the Uruguay Round and, subsequently, analyses the change on the level of regime norms underlying the world trade regime. The analysis of regime norms yields insights about the essence of the regime transformation and as to what factors proved to be conducive to cooperation in the sphere of the world trade. The GATT/WTO regime with its extended scope and more sophisticated institutional structures can be regarded as a prime example of successful cooperation. However, the prospects for cooperation between states in an anarchic environment without central authority for enforcement are the subject of a remarkably intense scholarly debate. Therefore it is worthwhile to examine which theoretical framework proves to be most adept at elucidating the circumstances of this instance of cooperation. This thesis applies different theories of international cooperation to the case of the GATT/WTO regime. While a large array of rational theories attempts to explain cooperation from a perspective which focuses on interests and capabilities, a different strand of theories, that of cognitive approaches, emphasizes the paramountcy of ideas and beliefs as variables which explain cooperation. They endogenize the process of interest formation. This thesis seeks to synthesise the strong points of rational and cognitive approaches and thus to reconcile the divergent schools of thought. Its further purpose is to set out factors which are conducive to cooperation.

Approved for public release, distribution is unlimitedThis thesis examines the role of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) among organizations dealing with security issues, such as the United Nations, the European Union, and NATO. This study further analyzes the OSCE commitments in the fields of human rights, democracy, rule of law, and national minorities. This analysis is performed in order to promote the OSCE to a broader public. The thesis further analyzes and describes the origins of the Conference for Security and Cooperation in Europe (CSCE) and its development since 1975, when the Helsinki Final Act was signed by the Heads of State or Government of all participating States. The development of the international situation in Europe, the end of Cold War, and escalation of violence, especially in South Eastern Europe, Caucasus, and Central Asia, caused fundamental changes in the European, and subsequently, the world security environment. The CSCE identified and responded to this new situation, resulting in a dramatic growth of its own role in shaping a common security area. Consequently, the CSCE changed its name to the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe. However, some critics think that OSCE is a "dead" organization, lacking tangible results and the necessary "teeth." It is necessary to review the main ideas why the CSCE was established and to properly identify the role of the OSCE in the European Security Architecture. Therefore, the main part of the thesis focuses on the European Security Architecture, the OSCE itself, and the OSCE missions, three of which are detailed and evaluated as case studies.

Natural and manmade disasters are occurring at an unprecedented rate. Injuries and sickness are among the most widespread types of suffering caused by disasters, making medical aid essential. However, medical response depends on multiple factors to be timely and effective. The process of building a competent international medical disaster relief organization is complex, yet many well-intentioned, charitable organizations react hastily after a disaster, sending medical teams without truly understanding what an effective response requires. Consequently, in their genuine effort to help, they may end up hindering the response effort more than helping. Meanwhile, successful organizations implement principles conducive to an effective response. This research identifies three key characteristics of success found in effective, well-established international medical disaster relief organizations. These characteristics are first, ensuring an official invitation has been extended and the need for assistance has been identified. Second, the response to that need is done in an effective and sustainable manner. Third, effective organizations strive to obtain high quality volunteers. By following these basic characteristics, organizations are likely to improve the efficiency and quality of their work.

This thesis analyzes the Organization of Black Sea Economic Cooperation and Turkey's role in this international organization. This thesis argues that contrary to scholars who view institutional weaknesses of BSEC as the main reason of its failure in achieving sufficient level of cooperation among its members, political problems emanating from member states constitute the main reason of BSEC'
s ineffectiveness as an international organization. There are six chapters of this thesis. Following the introductory first chapter, the second chapter of this thesis examines the factors behind establishment of BSEC and its formation process. In the following three chapters BSEC'

The aim of this thesis is to examine the changing characteristics of the regional security complex in Central Asia. The thesis focuses on the changes in the roles that the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) plays in promoting regional security in Central Asia, especially since the formation of the international coalition against international terrorism in the aftermath of the terrorist attacks on 11 September 2001. Contrary to the mainstream literature that focuses mainly on the security concerns of either regional powers or of great powers that considered this region as their own sphere of influence, this thesis argues that Central Asia&rsquos security issues that emerged in the aftermath of 9/11 could be explained better by taking the emerging regional security complex in Central Asia as the main unit of analysis. The thesis consists of seven chapters: In Chapter 1, thesis is introduced. Chapter 2 develops a conceptual framework for the thesis by examining the nature of regional security complex theory. This is followed by the examination of the characteristics of regional security complex in Central Asia in Chapter 3. Next, Chapter 4 discusses the foreign policies of the United States, Russia and China towards Central Asia. Chapters 5 and 6 examine the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, its role in the struggle against international terrorism and their reflections on the changes of the characteristics of Central Asian regional security complex. Last chapter concludes the thesis.

The thesis analyses the systems, dynamics and conditions of international cooperation/non-cooperation in the international community that is embodied through international/regional institutions and organisations. As Robert Cooper describes, the international community consists of the three worlds in which the differences between them may be confrontational in international cooperation. While the post-modern civilisation and values are introduced into the institutions and organisations for international peace and security, the state actors from the pre-modern and modern civilisations and values are vigorously defending the traditional version of state sovereignty. Then, all these are equally the member of the international community and, as Robert Axelrod's Prisoner Dilemma game sets, neither state actors nor structural actors of international relations can escape from it. Therefore, it is hoped that, as Axelrod's theory suggests, the closed community, in the end, produces cooperation and a positive peace for a better future for all. In the case studies, the OSCE faces a number of non-cooperative state actors, like Russia. An anti-OSCE civilisation exists and is resisting the organisational values, while it is staying in the framework. Thus, the organisation is suffering from defectors and free-riders. Knowing the limitation of the organisation, it still has a space for improvement and a useful function which is to provide a long term process to make a non-cooperate actor cooperative.

This paper attempts to determine the theoretical requirements for a non-state actor to give peacekeepers to a Member state of the United Nations, who would in turn give those peacekeepers to the United Nations. The paper examines two case studies, specifically the contract between Blackwater and the United States Department of State and the SHIRBRIG series of treaties. The paper finds that there is some overlap between a Member state’s needs and a non-state actor’s needs and that there is a theoretical possibility of the donation stated above taking place.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
La coopération en droit international privé revêt deux caractéristiques essentielles : elle est visible et elle est technique. Visible, elle est unique par la structure qu’elle requiert, notamment par la détermination d’entités spécifiques au sein des Etats impliqués par ce mécanisme de traitement du contentieux comportant un élément d’extranéité. L’interaction de ces entités requiert un engagement de la part de ces Etats par la voie d’accords internationaux interétatiques ou supraétatique. Technique, elle bouleverse le droit international privé en général. Tout d’abord, elle implique une meilleure organisation du traitement de la procédure par la mise en avant du for compétent au fond. La coopération est dépendante des règles de conflit de juridictions pour sa mise en œuvre, dont le caractère obligatoire varie selon les objectifs poursuivis par les instruments de coopération. Cette concentration du procès « international » est autorisée par la hiérarchisation des procédures qu’entraînent les mécanismes de coopération. On peut distinguer la procédure principale, des procédures accessoires, lesquels n’ont pas pour objectif de faire trancher le litige au fond. Le corollaire est la diffusion de la loi procédurale du for compétent au fond vers d’autres Etats, contraire au principe de territorialité. Inversement, le pouvoir décisionnel du for peut être altéré en raison de l’intervention préalable des entités de l’Etat d’exécution requise en matière de protection des personnes. En général, la coopération crée des règles procédurales matérielles, lesquelles doivent être analysées conformément aux droits fondamentaux de procédure dont elles sont censées défendre les objectifsTechnicity and visibility characterize cooperation in private international law. This method is unique considering the structure it requires to be enforced. Each member State to a convention or a European regulation containing rules of cooperation shall designate specific entities which will be able to cooperate with similar foreign entities for the management of a procedure with external elements. This interaction between state entities implies a form of involvement by the states through a convention or a regulation. The interaction between cooperation and traditional method of international private law are obvious. Both aim to a better organization of proceedings implying extraneity. Cooperation and rules of jurisdiction contribute to a concentration of the debates on the authority which can hear the case because of the strength of the links between the situation and its territory. Most of the cooperation tools create subordinate proceedings before incidental authorities. This hierarchisation of proceedings has such consequences that it allows the procedural rules of the main authority to be spread abroad under conditions. Anyway some mechanisms temper with the ability of this main authority to elaborate its decisions. In matters of protection of individuals, it may be required that such authority shall ask the authority of the state of enforcement of the foregoing decision whether that decision might be enforced on its territory. Cooperation in private international uniformises procedural law for international cases and put forward fundamental rules of procedure, such as they may be found in the European convention on Human Rights

Thesis (MBA)--Stellenbosch University, 2004.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study set out to identify the key success factors of Public Private Partnerships (PPPs) in the healthcare sector to be considered by Netcare when exploring possible PPP opportunities. Public Private Partnerships (PPP) presents a means of mobilising private funds for delivering of public services whilst government manages the relationship via a negotiated PPP agreement to ascertain the quality of services rendered. A literature study was performed in order to conceptualize the potential of the application of PPP in the healthcare industry and the factors impacting on the success thereof. PPPs around the world did not develop in unison nor are they uniform in nature. It is this variation in development that led to the formation of a wide variety of different PPP models that define these partnerships. The different PPP models currently applied by Netcare in the UK are similar in their basic characteristics to some of the models described in literature. One of the biggest challenges facing the healthcare industry in South Africa is the unequal split between public and private healthcare sectors. This is not only in terms of number of people serviced but also includes allocation of the available resources. Very limited information is available on application of PPP in the healthcare sector. The private hospital groups primarily involved in PPP in the healthcare industry in SA are Netcare and Medi-Clinic. Netcare has successfully positioned itself not only as the biggest private hospital group in South Africa, but also as the leader in PPP involvement in the healthcare sector in South Africa. The PPP projects undertaken, though still very early days, have been very successful, but do not yield very high returns. The rationale to Netcare for partaking in these extends beyond financial returns. It is mainly strategic in terms of its position in the local market and its potential involvement in the anticipated NHS (National Health System). It is essential that Netcare maintains credibility and goodwill and continues to demonstrate its commitment to address the healthcare industry needs of all in SA. Responding to the limited growth opportunities presented by the local market, Netcare expanded its operations to include international contracts, in particular in the UK, with negotiations under way for contracts in Portugal. The experienced gained through the PPPs in the UK, the country regarded as the leader in PPPs in the healthcare sector, is invaluable to their future participation in PPPs. Governments all over the world want to improve healthcare service delivery and curb healthcare inflation. This presents opportunities to Netcare that could arguably be in the form of a PPP. The ability to evaluate the key success factors that will impact on these PPPs is therefore of great importance to Netcare. The study showed that the actual process involved in forming a PPP depends on various key factors that impact on the outcome thereof. The role of government is essential and it includes the creation of the infrastructure and the legal environment for PPP, to demonstrating competence in managing PPPs, providing the political support and achieving investor confidence. An extensive list of key success factors was identified, but applying these factors to two possible PPP opportunities revealed their shortcomings. It was concluded that the list of factors cannot be applied as the ultimate checklist to pre-determine the outcome of a PPP. This is because various factors will only be revealed in the later stages of the PPP project life. It was also concluded that PPP participation by the company is a priority strategic decision. The strengths and weaknesses of the company relative to the opportunities and threats presented then needs to be evaluated. The list of key success factors provides an important guideline in terms of considering the specific opportunities and threats associated with PPPs. These factors should be considered during the various stages of the project development.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die doelwat van die studie is die identifisering van die faktore wat die sukses van Staat Privaat Vennootskappe (SPV) binne die gesondheidsorg industrie sal bepaal, en wat deur Netcare in ag geneem moet word wanneer sodanige vennootskappe oorweeg word. Hierdie vennootskappe bied 'n geleentheid vir die mobilisering van privaat fondse vir publieke dienslewering terwyl die regering deur middel van die onderhandelde PPP ooreenkoms die verhouding bestuur en die kwaliteit van dienslewering monitor. Die literatuurstudie het ondermeer die potensiaal van sodanige vennootskappe in die gesondheidsorg industrie, sowel as die faktore wat die suksesvolle uitkoms daarvan bepaal, ondersoek. Verskeie SPV modelle en tipes vennootskappe bestaan weens die uiteenlopende ontwikkeling van SPVs in die onderskeie lande. Die modelle tans toegepas deur Netcare in Engeland reflekteer die eienskappe van modelle beskryf in literatuur. Een van die gesondheidsorg indrustrie in Suid Afrika (SA) se grootste uitdagings is die oneweredige verdeling tussen publieke en privaat gesondheidsorg, beide in terme van populasie verteenwoordiging en aanwending van die beskikbare hulpbronne. Inligting aangaande die aanwending van SPV in die gesondheidsorg industrie is baie beperk. In die Suid Afrikaanse konteks is Netcare en Medi-Clinic die dominante rolspelers in SPVs in die industrie. Netcare is tans nie net die grootste privaat hospitaalgroep in SA nie, maar ook die leier op SPV betrokkenheid in die gesondheidsorgsektor in SA. Hoewel die huidige SPV's relatief onlangs tot stand gekom het, is daar reeds heelwat sukses behaal. Die opbrengs gerealiseer is egter nie fenominaal nie. Die motivering vir Netcare se betrokkenheid in hierdie vennootskappe strek egter verder as bloot die finansiële opbrengste. Gegewe die potensiële nasionale gesondheidstelsel en die posisionering in die plaaslike mark, is dit noodsaaklik vir Netcare om gesien te word as toegewyd aan 'n oplossing vir die gesondheidsorg uitdaging in Suid Afrika. Netcare se internasionale uitbreiding kan deels toegeskryf word aan die beperkte groei geleenthede in SA. Hulle internasionale kontrakte sluit in Engeland met onderhandeling in Portugal tans onderweg. Die ondervinding opgedoen met die SPV's in Engeland is van onskatbare waarde gegewe Engeland se posisie as leier op die gebied van SPV in die gesondheidsorg industrie. Verskeie lande poog tans om hulle gesondheidsorg dienslewering te verbeter en mediese inflasie te beperk. Dit skep potensiële SPV geleenthede vir Netcare. Die vermoë om die kritiese sukses faktore wat die uitkoms van hierdie SPVs sal bepaal, te kan evalueer, is dus van kardinale belang vir Netcare. Dit blyk uit die studie dat die proses van die ontwikkeling van SPV deur verskeie faktore beinvloed word. Die regering van 'n land speel 'n belangrike rol in die daarstelling van die infrastruktuur, die regsaspektelike omgewing, hulle bevoegdheid in terme van die bestuur van SPV, hulle vermoë om politiese ondersteuning te verleen en hulle vermoë om beleggers se vertrou te wen. 'n Omvattende lys van faktore wat impakteer op die sukses van SPV is identifiseer. Tydens die toepassing daarvan op twee voorbeelde het dit duidelik geblyk dat die lys nie as allesomvattend beskou kan word en aangewend kan word om vooraf die uitkoms van 'n SPV te voorspel nie. Verskeie faktore wat krities is in die sukses van SPV kan eers bepaal word tydens later stadiums van die SPV. Daar is ook tot die slotsom gekom dat die firma strategie die primêre oorweging tydens die evaluering van SPV behoort te wees. Die sterk en swak punte van die firma relatief tot die geleentheide en bedreigings wat die SPV inhou moet evalueer word. Die lys van faktore krities tot die sukses van SPV dien as 'n belangrike riglyn vir die oorwerging van geleenthede en bedreigings geassosieerd met SPV. Hierdie faktore behoort tydens die verskeie stadia van SPV projek ontwikkeling in ag geneem te word.

Thesis (MDF)--Stellenbosch University, 2015.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The role of health foreign assistance in explaining health outcomes remains an unending debate. The study assessed the relationship between foreign health aid and three selected health indicators of interest: infant mortality rate, under-five mortality rate and life expectancy, with control variables such as government expenditure on health and general medical clinics and public health services in Namibia. The data used was from 1990 to 2013 although there was some missing data. It was found that all health indicators improve with an increase in foreign health aid except that it is more impactful (statistically significant) in the case of infant mortality rate. The regression analysis shows that a one percent increase in heath aid will result in a 0.03 decrease in infant mortality rate but this is statistically insignificant. A one percent increase in health aid will result in a 0.01 decline in under-five mortality. A one percent increase in health aid will result in 0.53 increase in life expectancy. The Granger causality test revealed a uni-causal relationship among most variables. An increase in government expenditure to health is accompanied by a decline in all indicators. Overall, based on correlation coefficients, aid is linearly related to health outcomes in Namibia. The study gives a tentative conclusion that foreign health aid slightly improves health outcomes in Namibia.

Este estudo visa analisar a implementação, no Brasil, das Linhas Diretrizes da OCDE para as Empresas Multinacionais, documento que integra a Declaração sobre o Investimento Internacional e as Empresas Multinacionais. De acordo com os termos estabelecidos nessa Declaração, os Estados devem promover essas Linhas Diretrizes, bem como instalar um Ponto de Contato Nacional (PCN) mecanismo criado para consolidar os padrões de conduta e para receber reclamações atinentes à violação de seus termos por empresas multinacionais. A observância aos termos da Declaração é obrigatória para os Estadosmembros da Organização para Cooperação e Desenvolvimento Econômicos (OCDE) e condição para não membros participarem das atividades do Comitê de Investimentos situação na qual o Brasil se inclui. O ato internacional brasileiro de adesão à Declaração não se submeteu ao crivo parlamentar a que alude o artigo 49, inciso I, da Constituição Federal (CF) e, além disso, as medidas adotadas internamente para implementar as Diretrizes incluindo a instalação de PCN foram ordenadas por uma Portaria , que constitui ato do Ministério da Fazenda. Essas circunstâncias evidenciam como a cooperação e legitimidade fundada no consenso são base importante para que se promovam os direitos através das fronteiras sem desrespeitar a legislação brasileira, consoante este trabalho se propõe demonstrar.This study analyses the implementation in Brazil of the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises, which constitute an integral part of the Declaration on International Investment and Multinational Enterprises. In accordance with the terms of the Declaration on International Investment and Multinational Enterprises, the states are to promote the Guidelines and install a National Point of Contact (NCP), the mechanism created to consolidate the Guidelines and receive complaints against the violation of their terms by multinational companies. Compliance with the terms of the Declaration is mandatory for the OECD member countries and the condition for non-members to participate in the activities of the Investment Committee like in the case of Brazil. The Brazilian international subscription act to the Declaration was not submitted to the approval of the parliament as per article 49, I of the Federal Constitution; in addition, the measures adopted internally to implement the Guidelines and install the NCP were ordered by Decreean act within the competence of the Ministry. These circumstances show how cooperation and legitimacy founded on consensus are an important basis for the promotion of rights across borders without infringing Brazilian Law. This is what the present study proposes to discuss.

Thesis (MPA)--University of Stellenbosch, 2005.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Foreign criminal syndicates are using South Africa as a springboard to commit certain crimes throughout the world. The crimes vary from fraud to murder to dealing in drugs. The South African Police Service does possess the capacity and the means to trace and arrest these criminals but this is not enough. Foreigners arrested in this country are tried and sentenced without any checks being done in order to determine whether the subject is possibly sought by other policing agencies throughout the world. One of the means available to the South African Police Service but which is completely under utilizsed is the component "Interpol", which is based within the Crime Intelligence division at Head Office in Pretoria. One reason for the under utilisation of this component is the absence of an operational policy. The design of a policy document will inform members of the South African Police Service of the environment in which Interpol operates and what contribution it can make in respect of- the investigation of crimes that have an international dimension. The theoretical aspects of the policy environment have been discussed and it was found that it is of importance that the proper goals and objectives are formulated and that policy analyst must be able to differentiate between the two. As progress is made in respect of the policy document the analyst will have to keep abreast with current tendencies and make the necessary adjustments. These changes must not be of such a nature that the goals and objectives of the policy document are changed or altered. By the middle of the nineteenth century, the police, especially in Europe, began to realise that criminals were regularly committing offences in other countries and then returning to their own country. There was nothing that the police could do in this regard as the extradition of a criminal was done applied for in exceptional circumstances. The possibility of establishing an international policing agency in order to assist all policing agencies in combating these "cross-border" crimes was investigated. The first conference was held during 1914 in Monaco. This was the first of many conferences that would lead to the establishment of the international policing agency known as "Interpol". South Africa only joined the organisation in September 1993. It is proposed that an operational policy document be drafted and send to all the divisions of the South African Police Service. This document clearly stipulates how Interpol Pretoria can be of assistance to all the divisions of the South African Police Service. This includes what must be done when foreign nationals are arrested in South Africa and when members of the South African police Service undertake official journeys to foreign countries. The document also includes how the component is managed, its structure and the nature of its duties. Research has proven that there is a need for a policy document for Interpol Pretoria. It is recommended that the operational policy document be accepted. Once accepted, the document must be converted into a national instruction. The advantages of a document of this nature are: ./' The component already exists and no additional funding is required to establish the component. ./' More members of the South African Police Service will be able to make use of the services rendered by the component. Of the disadvantages in this regard, is that it is a long-winded procedure that has to be followed before the document is approved. Visits will have to be undertaken to hold "information sessions" with the commanders within the various provinces. Research has illustrated that policy documents are valuable within the Public Service. The absence of a policy document is not necessarily a disadvantage to certain units within the policing environment but when it comes to available resources not being optimally utilized, the reason therefore could be the absence on an operational policy.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Suid-Afrika word deur buitelandse misdaadsindikate as afsetgebied gebruik om sekere misdade oor die hele wêreld heen te pleeg. Die misdade wissel van bedrog tot moord tot dwelmhandel. Die Suid-Afrikaanse Polisiediens beskik weloor bronne en kennis om die misdadigers op te spoor en in hegtenis te neem. Maar dit is nie genoeg nie. Buitelanders wat in hegtenis geneem word, word vervolg sonder dat daar vasgestel word of die persoon deur ander polisie-agentskappe in ander wêrelddele gesoek word. Van die bronne wat tot die beskikking van die Suid-Afrikaanse Polisiediens is, maar wat heeltemalonderbenut word, is die "Interpol"-komponent van Misdaadintelligensie, Hoofkatnoor, Pretoria. Een van die redes hiervoor is dat daar geen operasionele beleid vir hierdie komponent bestaan nie. Die opstel van so 'n beleidsdokument sal lede van die Suid-Afrikaanse Polisiediens inlig oor die werksmilieu waarbinne "Interpol" werk en watter bydrae die komponent by die ondersoek van misdade met 'n internasionale dimensie kan maak. Die teoretiese aspekte van die beleidsmilieu is bespreek en daar is gevind dat dit van kardinale beland is om behoorlik geformuleerde doelstellings en doelwitte op te stel. Die beleidsanalis behoort ook tussen die twee kan onderskei. Soos die opstel van die document vorder, is dit belangrik dat die analis met nuwe tendense moet tred hou en die nodige verstellings behoort aanbring te word. Dié verstellings behoort nie van so 'n aard wees dat dit die doelstellings en doelwitte van die beleidsdokument verander nie. Teen die middle van die negentiende eeu het die polisie, veral in Europa begin besef dat misdadigers gereeld misdade in ander lande pleeg en dan na hulle eie land terugkeer. Daar was niks wat die polisiebeamptes hieraan kon doen nie aangesien die uitlewering van 'n verdagte slegs in uitsonderlik egevalle aangevra is. Die moontlikheid is ondersoek dat 'n internasionale polisie-organisasie op die been gebring moes word wat alle polisie-agentskappe sou help om "oorgrensmisdade" te bekamp. Die eerste konferensie van dié is in 1914 in Monaco gehou. Dit was die eerste van 'n reeks konferensies wat aanleidign sou gee tot die totstandkoming van die internasionale polisie-organisasie wat vandag as "Interpol" bekend staan. Suid- Afrika het eers in September 1993 lid van dié organisasie geword. 'n Operasionele beleidsdokument word voorgestel wat na al die afdelings van die Suid-Afrikaanse Polisiediens versprei moet word. Die dokument gee 'n uiteensetting van hoe Interpol Pretoria ander afdelings van die Suid-Afrikaanse Polisiediens van hulp kan wees, soos byvoorbeeld wat van lede in sekere gevalle verlang word, soos waar buitelandse burgers gearresteer word en/of wanneer lede amptelike besoeke aan ander lande aflê. Die dokument gee ook 'n uiteensetting van hoe die komponent bedryf word, asook van sy struktuur en werksaamhede. Die navorsing bewys dat daar 'n behoefte aan 'n beleidsdokument vir Interpol Pretoria bestaan. Daar word aanbeveel dat die operasionele beleidsdokument aanvaar behoort te word. Nadat dit goedgekeur is, behoort dit in 'n nasionale instruksie omskep te word. Die voordele van so 'n dokument is meervoudig, en sluit die volgende in: ./ Die Komponent bestaan reeds en bykomende fondse hoef nie daarvoor bewillig te word nie . ./ Meer lede van die Suid-Afrikaanse Polisiediens sal die dienste gebruik wat die komponent verskaf. Van die nadele is dat dit 'n langdurige proses is om so 'n beleidsdokument te laat goedkeur. Besoeke sal aan die verskeie provinsiale kantore gebring behoort te word om 'inligtingsessies' met die bevelvoerders te hou. Die navorsig het weer eens bewys dat beleidsdokumente nog steeds 'n waardevolle plek in die Staatsdiens het. Die gebrek aan 'n beleid is nie noodwendig nadelig vir sekere eenhede binne die polisiemilieu nie, maar wanneer daar gekyk word na die onderbenutting van bestaande bronne, kan dit heel moontlik aan die afwesigheid van 'n operasionele beleidsdokument toegeskryf word.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
L’internationalisation des entreprises est un phénomène irréversible et la globalisation économique n’est qu’une des facettes d’un phénomène de mondialisation qui touche désormais l’ensemble des activités humaines. Cette globalisation de l’économie offre aux entreprises des opportunités d’implantation et d’acquisition de parts de marchés étrangers mais semble poser des défis importants à relever à toute entreprise désireuse de s’internationaliser. En effet, l’observation des performances des entreprises exportatrices de la filière fruits et légumes d’un pays comme le Burkina Faso montre une baisse continue de la compétitivité sur le marché international depuis plusieurs années. Face à ce constat, nous nous interrogeons sur les raisons profondes de cette situation : la perte de compétitivité peut-elle s’expliquer par l’organisation et le mode de fonctionnement de la filière face aux conditions actuelles d’accès au marché ? Pour répondre à cette question, notre démarche a consisté à mobiliser la théorie de l’économie industrielle et la théorie du marketing relationnel qui ont permis de formuler 12 propositions de recherche. Ces propositions ont été soumises à l’épreuve des faits sur la base des résultats des traitements et de l’analyse des données collectées auprès d’un échantillon de 23 acteurs. Deux méthodes d’analyse ont été mobilisées pour le traitement et l’analyse des données : l’analyse thématique et l’analyse automatique de contenu à l’aide du logiciel ALCESTE. Les résultats convergents de ces deux méthodes d’analyse ont permis de conclure que la perte de compétitivité s’explique d’une part l’organisation et le mode de fonctionnement de la filière face aux conditions actuelles d’accès au marché mais surtout de facteurs liés à son environnement externe, notamment les conditions de base du pays d’origine, d’autre part. La thèse formule des recommandations d’ordre managériales et ouvre des perspectives pour des recherches futuresFirm’s internationalisation is an irreversible phenomena and the economic globalisation is a figure of world phenomena of all human activities concern. This globalisation gives an opportunity to firms which desire to acquire a market part in foreign markets. But this situation is also an important challenge for those firms which want to get a part in the international market. Indeed, we noticed that export firms of Burkina fruits and vegetables field had a bad performance since several years. Then, we need to understand the main raisons of this situation. So our question is: doses competitiveness loss can be explained by the field organisation and working according to the market conditions access? To answer to this question, industrial and relational marketing theories are mobilized. With these theories 12 research propositions are formulated and tested. A primary data are collected with a sample of 23 actors. These data was submitted to two different data analysis methodology: the thematic analysis and ALCESTE analysis. The convergent results of these two analysis methodology premised us to conclude that the field competitiveness loss is partly due to field organisation and working and to a large extent of the basic conditions of origin country. In conclusion we propose recommendations for firm’s competitive improvement and some directions for further research

O objetivo desta dissertação é analisar e compreender a influência e capacidade das organizações internacionais para apoiar e fortalecer o processo de integração regional sulamericano, tomando como modelo deste enfoque a Organização do Tratado de Cooperação Amazônica (OTCA). Este objetivo deriva do fato de que a proposta inicial da Comunidade Sul‐americana de Nações (CSN) expunha que o processo de integração seria alcançado a partir da convergência gradual entre a Comunidade Andina de Nações (CAN) e o Mercosul, somando o Chile, a Guiana e o Suriname. Com esta idéia pretendia‐se aproveitar ao máximo os avanços e esforços de integração feitos pelo Mercosul e pela CAN e também beneficiar‐se da capacidade técnica e institucional, assim como das experiências de outras organizações existentes na região. Poderia levantar‐se uma série de suposições válidas a respeito do lento avanço da integração, mas nesta dissertação assume‐se que não se sabe qual é a capacidade e o potencial das organizações sul‐americanas e latino‐americanas para encaminhar o processo de integração. Por este motivo, argumenta‐se que para conhecer aquelas potencialidades das organizações regionais é necessário primeiro saber como estão estruturados seus sistemas políticos, como funcionam e quais são os diversos elementos que atuam e intervêm nestes sistemas. Para isso, apresenta‐se a análise do sistema político da OTCA. A pesquisa permite demonstrar que existe um enorme potencial ainda por explorar, nas organizações internacionais para apoiar e fortalecer o processo da integração sulamericana e latino‐americana, não só pela adequação da OTCA ao modelo utilizado, mas porque esse recurso metodológico permitiu determinar que o organismo, por suas características, tem o potencial indicado, e que agindo em conjunto com outras organizações regionais possui a capacidade de dar dinamismo e eficiência ao processo.The purpose of the following dissertation is the analysis and understanding of the capacity and influence of international organizations to support and strengthen the South‐ American integration process, by using the Amazon Cooperation Treaty Organization (ACTO) as a model for this approach. This aim derives from the fact that the original proposal of the South American Community of Nations (CSN) suggested that the process of integration should be reached through the gradual convergence between the Andean Community of Nations (CAN) and Mercosur (Southern Common Market), adding Chile, Guyana and Surinam. This would allow them to benefit to the maximum from the advances and strengths that Mercosur and CAN already have in the process of integration, as well as the technical and institutional capacity and the expertise of other organizations in the region. A number of assumptions could be raised in relation to the slow progress of integration in South America; however, in this dissertation it is assumed that the capacity or potential of South and Latin American organizations to develop integration remains unknown. Therefore, it is argued that, in order to get to know these potentials it is essential to identify the structure of their political systems, how these systems work and the different elements that act and intervene in them. For that reason, an analysis of ACTOʹs political system is specifically included. This research has allowed the demonstration of the existence of an enormous potential, still to be explored, in the international organizations, to support and strengthen the South American and Latin American integration process, not merely because the ACTO adapts to the used model, but moreover because this methodological resource allowed to determine that such organization, because of its features, has the indicated potential, and acting together with other regional organizations, posses the capacity to make the process more dynamic and efficient.

La presente tesi di dottorato valuta i rapporti tra le organizzazioni della società civile e le istituzioni internazionali nel sistema della cooperazione per lo sviluppo, attraverso l'analisi delle politiche della Banca Mondiale e dell'Unione Europea, che risultano gli attori multilaterali più rilevanti nell'allocazione e gestione dei finanziamenti dell'Aiuto Pubblico allo Sviluppo (APS).
Nel quadro di relazioni cooperative-dialettiche, si verificano le funzioni degli interlocutori della società civile nel rapporto con le due organizzazioni internazionali e i livelli di partnership. Si analizzano alcuni nodi problematici come la valutazione della performance dei progetti delle organizzazioni della società civile (OSC), per verificarne il valore aggiunto; la dicotomia tra un approccio top-down e bottom-up nella pianificazione di processi di sviluppo locale; la rappresentatività e l'efficacia del contributo delle OSC alla global governance per lo sviluppo.
Si presentano anche due casi empirici di progetti realizzati da una stessa OSC, finanziati dalle due istituzioni considerate, al fine di favorire, attraverso l'analisi “micro”, la comprensione di eventuali diversità rispetto al quadro teorico, alle procedure sul “ciclo di progetto” e ai rilevamenti quantitativi presentati. Complessivamente, emerge che la cooperazione tra OSC e le istituzioni internazionali ha maggiori benefici che costi e conduce ad una partnership win-win per entrambi.The present PhD thesis considers the relationships between the organisations of civil society and the international institutions in development cooperation's system through the analysis of the World Bank's and the European Union's policies. In the frame of cooperative and dialectic relationships will be verified the functions of the interlocutors of the civil society in relationship with the two international organisations and levels of partnership. Some problematic knots will be analysed such as the evaluation of projects' performance of the organisations of the social society (OSC) in order to verify the added value; the dichotomy between a top-down and bottom-up approach in the process planning of the local development; the representation and effectiveness of the OSC's contribution to the global governance for development. Two empirical cases of projects realised by an OCE will be showed. These are financed by the two above considered institutions in order to favour, through a “micro” analysis, the comprehension of possible differences regard to the theoretical picture, to the procedures of the project cycle and to the quantitative showed survey. Altogether it appears that the cooperation between the OSC and the international institutions has more benefits than costs and leads to a win-win partnership.

The thesis is devoted to international and legal aspects research which regulate states’ cooperation in struggle against counterfeiting. Social, political and legal conditions of international and legal mechanism of counteraction to the above mentioned crime which has international character is defined. A number of international and legal documents, national legislation of Ukraine and foreign states in the specified sphere is analysed. The activity Interpol and Еuropol in the field of states’ international cooperation in struggle against counterfeiting is investigated. Regimes and grounds of responsibility for the mentioned given crime of international character are also investigated. Critical analysis of modern state of international cooperation in struggle against counterfeiting is accomplished. Recommendations of international and legal mechanism and national legislation directed on increasing the effectiveness of counteraction to the mentioned crime are formulated.
В диссертации исследованы международно-правовые аспекты сотрудничества государств в борьбе с фальшивомонетничеством, сущность и современные проблемы такого сотрудничества. Изложенная история развития фальшивомонетничества определила социальную и политико-правовую обусловленность процесса формирования международно-правового механизма противодействия преступлению и необходимость международного сотрудничества в этой сфере. Анализ единственного универсального соглашения в сфере международного сотрудничества в борьбе с фальшивомонетничеством - Международной конвенции по борьбе с подделкой денежных знаков 1929 года - указывает, что в современных условиях, ряд ее положений устарел и требует значительных изменений и дополнений. Прежде всего, это касается расширения сферы действия конвенции на борьбу с преступлениями, связанными с поделкой ценных бумаг и платежных карточек. С учетом всех изменений и дополнений к данной конвенции представлен проект Конвенции о борьбе с подделкой денежных знаков, ценных бумаг и платежных карточек. Значительное внимание уделено исследованию деятельности Международной организации уголовной полиции (Интерполу) как центру международного сотрудничества в борьбе с фальшивомонетничеством и Европейскому полицейскому ведомству (Европолу), которое приобретает все большее значение в области координации взаимодействия национальных правоохранительных органов стран-членов ЕС в борьбе с данным преступлением. Указывается, что фальшивомонетничество может совершаться как индивидами, так и государствами. Поэтому исследованы виды и формы ответственности индивидов и государств, причастных к данному преступлению. Проведен критический анализ действующих международно-правовых документов, в том числе принятых у рамках СНГ, национальное законодательство Украины и зарубежных стран в области борьбы с фальшивомонетничеством и наказания за него. В диссертации представлены рекомендации для усовершенствования международно-правового механизма и национального законодательства, направленные на повышение эффективности противодействия фальшивомонетничеству.

Tourism is a vector of economic development for this organization. Can electronic tourism create and consolidate cooperation in tourism between the countries taking part in the MWO with its multiple tourist destinations? Despite the difficulties of competition, national interests and foreign policies, the agreement on cooperation in e-tourism has led to an offer for the whole Maya region through the Maya World website. This thesis emphasizes the importance of e-tourism and advocates strengthening it so as to foster cooperation among countries in the region from a joint perspective, thus creating a constructive, dynamic synergy. It contributes to the study of tourism, international cooperation and the World Maya Region

Cette étude analyse les différents angles de vue qui permettent de comprendre l’état des politiques internationales d’atténuation du changement climatique au début du XXIème siècle. Dans un contexte réellement inquiétant au regard des données scientifiques actuellement à disposition sur le sujet, elle interroge la capacité d’action de la communauté internationale dans la gestion de la crise environnementale en cours. Alors que la plupart des études et des mesures adoptées tendent à se concentrer sur les capacités d’adaptation au changement climatique, il importe de savoir dans quelle mesure les politiques d’atténuation de ce dernier gardent une forme de légitimité et d’intérêt. S’appuyant sur un grand nombre de publications du monde universitaire et de rapports publics nationaux ou internationaux, cette étude bibliographique dresse un bilan sur l’état des connaissances relatives à la gestion internationale de la crise environnementale contemporaine, sur les enjeux fondamentaux que cette dernière soulève pour les prochaines décennies par rapport à nos modèles de sociétés (politiques, économiques, sociaux, éthiques…), sur les difficultés qu’elle ne manque pas de rencontrer dans le cadre des négociations internationales (atteinte aux souverainetés nationales, défense d’intérêts particuliers, répartition des rôles entre les différents acteurs, organisation et mise en place de moyens complexes…), puis enfin sur les différentes perspectives qu’elle pourrait voir émerger au cours des décennies à venir en fonction du degré d’action ou d’inaction de la communauté internationale à court terme (ampleur du réchauffement et de ses conséquences, modèles politiques et économiques associés, forme et niveau de la coopération internationale…). Le travail s’intéresse dans un premier temps au processus du changement climatique lui-même ainsi qu’à son contexte par l’intermédiaire de l’évolution de la société contemporaine (Partie I). Il met ensuite en évidence l’existence des difficultés importantes auxquelles est confronté le politique aujourd’hui, dans sa capacité notamment à prendre en charge la gestion de la crise environnementale en cours (Partie II). Il analyse en outre l’incapacité systémique du modèle économique mondialisé à assurer seul l’atténuation du changement climatique (Partie III). Il met enfin en avant certaines pistes de réflexion démontrant la nécessité de l’établissement sur la scène internationale d’un développement mondial durable et équitable (Partie IV)This study analyses the different points of view that lead to a better understanding of international public policies addressing climate change mitigation in the beginning of the XXIth century. In a truly worrying context according to current scientific data, it questions the international community’s ability to act upon the current environment crisis. Many studies and policies about climate change are focusing on the ability to adapt to climate change; but it is important to know how policies that mitigate the climate change still remain legitimate and gather interest. Based on a large number of research publications and national or international public reports, this bibliographic study produces a review of the international management of the current environment crisis; an evaluation of the most important issues it reveals for the next decades about our society’s models (political, economic, social, ethical...); an assessment of the difficulties it creates for international negotiations (threats to national sovereignties, protection of specific interests, roles sharing between various stakeholders, organization and logistics of complicated means...); and finally an analysis of the different outlooks for the next decades depending on the international community’s level of action in the near term (magnitude of temperature warming and its consequences, associated political and economic models, form and extent of international cooperation...). First, this study addresses the climate change process itself and its context within the evolution of our contemporary society (Part I). Second, it exposes the great difficulties facing today’s politicians to tackle the environmental crisis (Part II). Then, it analyses the systematic inability of the global economic model to assume by itself the full responsibility of climate change mitigation (Part III). Finally, this study presents a number of considerations regarding the need to establish an equitable and sustainable economic development at the global scale (Part IV)

Paix et sécurité en Afrique conditionnent la durabilité de la coopération sino-africaine et préoccupent les pays membres de la Francophonie. La récurrence des conflits freinant le décollage des pays africains engage les acteurs internationaux de différentes natures, États-nations comme organisations internationales. Chine et Francophonie contribuent de manière différente au processus de paix en Afrique francophone. Malgré les écarts existant entre leurs visions et entre leurs approches, des complémentarités sont explorées dans la consolidation de la paix, dont la multi-dimensionnalité exige l’implication d’acteurs divers. La consolidation de la paix représente également un prisme pertinent pour observer l’évolution de la diplomatie chinoise et les particularités de la Francophonie comme organisation transnationale. Mettre l’une sous le regard de l’autre nous permet de mieux examiner les singularités et les similitudes de leurs perceptions et leurs mécanismes d’action. De quelles manières Chine et Francophonie s’impliquent-elles dans la consolidation de la paix ? Comment abordent-elles les notions de paix et de conflits dans leurs réflexions ? Comment les Africains perçoivent-ils leurs approches respectives ? Ces interrogations conduisent à exploiter les pensées chinoises et les courants théoriques occidentaux, sans oublier les réalités et les attentes africaines révélées par les entretiens de terrainPeace and security in Africa both condition the durability of Sino-African cooperation, a reason for concern to the member-states of IOF. Recurring conflicts hinder the take-off of African countries, and demand the commitment of international actors of various kinds, nation states as well as IGOs. China and IOF both contribute to the peace process in French-speaking Africa in different ways. Beyond the gap in their respective visions as well as their approaches, thinking should be elaborated about complementarities in peace-building, the multi-dimensional characteristics of which require involvement by diverse actors.The peace-building process provides a relevant prism for studying changes in Chinese diplomacy, and the specific features of IOF as a transnational organization. Submitting them to mutual scrutiny gives us keener insights on the peculiarities and similarities in their perceptions and operative mechanisms.How China and IOF do they engage in the peace-building? How do they approach the notions of peace and conflicts in their own representations? How do the Africans perceive their respective approaches? This inquiry is correlated to the best of Chinese thinking and Western theoretical trends, without forgetting African realities and expectations as evidenced through our field interviews
非洲和平与安全问题是中非合作持久发展的前提条件，也是法语国家组织成员国的共同忧患。反复爆发的冲突成为非洲国家崛起的障碍。这使民族国家和国际组织积极介入其中。中国和法语国家组织以不同方式为非洲法语国家和平进程作出贡献。建设和平的多维性需要不同行为体的介入, 它们的视角和方案虽有所差别，但我们有必要对其政策的互补性进行研究。建设和平不仅为我们的研究提供了观察中国外交政策演变的独特视角，而且充分体现了法语国家组织作为跨国际组织的特殊性。通过中国与法语国家组织的换位分析，我们能更有效地审视它们认知层面和行动机制的特点，同时凸显出两者的共通之处。非洲国家冲突的根源有哪些？建设和平的关键是什么？中国和法语国家组织如何介入其中 ? 它们怎样解读和平与冲突的概念？如何看待民主与发展的关联性？如何定义在非洲法语国家建设和平政策的重点？非洲政府与民众对其政策有何看法？为了思考这些问题，我们以中国传统与现代思想和西方理论流派为分析工具，以非洲实地采访作为研究支撑，进行深入探讨。

This thesis draws on David Harvey’s concept of “accumulation by dispossession” and an international political economy (IPE) approach centred on the institutional arrangements and power structures that privilege certain actors and values, in order to critique current capitalist practices of primitive accumulation by the global corporate extractive industry. The thesis examines how accumulation by dispossession by the global extractive industry is facilitated by the “free entry” or “free mining” principle. It does so by focusing on Canada as a leader in the global extractive industry and the spread of this country’s mining laws to other countries – in other words, the transnationalisation of norms in the global extractive industry – so as to maintain a consistent and familiar operating environment for Canadian extractive companies. The transnationalisation of norms is further promoted by key international institutions such as the World Bank, which is also the world’s largest development lender and also plays a key role in shaping the regulations that govern natural resource extraction. The thesis briefly investigates some Canadian examples of resource extraction projects, in order to demonstrate the weaknesses of Canadian mining laws, particularly the lack of protection of landowners’ rights under the free entry system and the subsequent need for “free, prior and informed consent” (FPIC). The thesis also considers some of the challenges to the adoption and implementation of the right to FPIC. These challenges include embedded institutional structures like the free entry mining system, international political economy (IPE) as shaped by international institutions and powerful corporations, as well as concerns regarding ‘local’ power structures or the legitimacy of representatives of communities affected by extractive projects. The thesis concludes that in order for Canada to be truly recognized as a leader in the global extractive industry, it must establish legal norms domestically to ensure that Canadian mining companies and residents can be held accountable when there is evidence of environmental and/or human rights violations associated with the activities of Canadian mining companies abroad. The thesis also concludes that Canada needs to address underlying structural issues such as the free entry mining system and implement FPIC, in order to curb “accumulation by dispossession” by the extractive industry, both domestically and abroad.

The Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) have been developing for a long time. Continuing improvements of internet and traffic technologies have led NGOs growing both in quality and quantity. Also transformations of global affairs into multiple issues also did a lot of contributes. People expect that NGOs could help minority to protect their rights and to use social resources more equitable when they are in the face of government failure and market failure. NGOs may also have volunteer failure problems. Insufficient professional trainings and unstable money donations are hard for them to operate sustainably. Taiwan not only received money from the United States for reconstruction but also introduced many NGOs as Christian associations. Meanwhile most Taiwan’s local NGOs provide only emergent aids. Qualities and quantities of Taiwan’s NGOs increased significantly after the 921 earthquake and multiple social developments. These have positive meanings for the development of Taiwan’s civil society. In this paper, this author tries to discuss international NGO theories. The research attempts to examine the development of NGOs and their change in management as well. This paper attempts to compare differences of NGOs developments between other countries. By the case of the International Cooperation and Development Fund (ICDF) this author attempts to explore a management principle between government and NGOs which uses resources more sufficient because ICDF have the advantages of professions, accountability and governmental budget. Keywords: NGOs, Government, ICDF, accountability

The Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) first came into being as a result of border negotiations between Russia and China but evolved shortly thereafter into more than this. A regional organization comprised of Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia, and China the SCO’s mandate now encompasses trade and security. Most secondary literature on this organization tends to detail the interests of its constituent members, while overlooking the historical relationships underlying the SCO’s growth and evolution. This thesis argues that Russia’s long-standing relationships with the states of Central Asia created the conditions making the SCO a necessary tool of Russian foreign policy, while Moscow’s relations with China and the US have driven the development of the group. It concludes that the SCO has become the most viable of Central Asia’s regional organizations because it has effectively resolved contradictions and conflicts in Russia’s relationships with the other SCO members.

In this world that poverty gap gradually becomes larger, poverty alleviation and assistance have turned into the mainstream value of international aid. As a semi-official organization which is subordinate to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, how does International Cooperation and Development Fund (ICDF) elaborate its function of poverty alleviation and assistance through overseas aid? Taking ICDF’s four representative works for example in respect of overseas small farmholder financing scheme, including Guava Pulp Processing Factory Project in Costa Rica, Rice Production and Rice Seed Production Project of Omar Torrijos Cooperative, Small Amount Agricultural Loan Project by Taiwan Technical Mission in the Republic of Belize, and Small Fishermen’s Financing Scheme in Panama, the manpower and technical supports as well as funds provided by Taiwan in these four projects have just manifested ICDF’s feature being a non-profit organization in the third sector. On the other hand, the author hopes to analyze difficulties that ICDF is now facing from the practical dimension of current diplomacy and political situation in Taiwan. Furthermore, suggestions will be proposed to result in positive effects that Taiwan develop diplomacy and strive for visibility through international aid, as well as how ICDF can more precisely elaborate its advantage as the third sector. By Documentary Research Method, Historical Research Method and Induction Method, this study discovers that although ICDF is constrained by the diplomatic strategy of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, as well as its foreign aid strategy to be influenced by domestic political alterations, yet under the support of national resources it can be exempted from the predicament of insufficient donation caused by economic recession which ordinary civil organizations often suffer, and therefore can elaborate the purpose of aid within its authorized power. Several research results are derived in this study as below: 1.It is the priority to demonstrate the excellence of Taiwan corresponding to the international situation. 2.The feature of being semi-official has constrained ICDF’s function as the third sector. 3.The difficult situation of ICDF is just the same as that of our diplomacy. 4.By developing international aid, ICDF seeks for opportunities to participate in international affairs. For the further researches afterwards, some suggestions are made as below: 1.The practice and outcome of Taiwan overseas volunteers, ICDF. 2.The supervision and evaluation of business regarding international technical cooperation.

A major aim of many international organizations is to support development in member countries but despite the importance of this objective in international relations and international cooperation, there are surprisingly few evaluations regarding the effectiveness of development assistance as perceived by recipients. This study, which was conducted using qualitative research methods, addresses the issue as it applies to Seychelles and the Commonwealth.
The focus of the Modern Commonwealth, an association of 54 countries, is to fulfil the agenda of member countries as stated in periodic declarations of heads of states. The association has been particularly active, and vocal, in supporting small, least developed, and vulnerable states, including small island developing states.
The Republic of Seychelles, a member of the Commonwealth since 1976, is a microstate with limited resources to support national development. Relying heavily on overseas development aid, then on commercial loans, the country attained remarkable levels of socio-economic development despite reaching the verge of bankruptcy in 2008 – when help was sought from the IMF. The continued existence of deep political dissensions has also earned it the label of „unquiet islands‟.
Despite considerable support received from the Commonwealth, few individuals in positions of responsibility in Seychelles think that this assistance has had an impact on the country‟s development. Commonwealth support in areas which could potentially change the future of the islands, such as maritime boundaries and petroleum prospecting, are generally invisible to most.
It is clear that some Commonwealth assistance is visionary and sustained but according to recipients in Seychelles, the bulk of it falls short of expectations. This perception is due mostly to the inability of people in-country to connect with the Commonwealth or to understand how the Commonwealth functions.
Commonwealth officials also seem unaware of the effects of their assistance programmes on intended recipients in Seychelles.
The study reveals that communication systems that are inclusive rather than exclusive, approaches that show sensitivity to national context, and a focus on relationship-building, could improve both the content and relevance of the assistance provided by an international organization as well as recipients‟ perception of the value of this assistance.Development Studies
