Angola Economic State, Oil boom and Political Stands. Angola achieved independence from Portugal in nineteen seventy-five, after which the competition between different movements that were vying to lead the country descended into civil war. The Popular Movement for the Liberation of Angola, a Marxist-oriented group that included urban intellectuals, nominally led the country. It was opposed by two factions the National Liberation Front of Angola, and the National Union for the Total Independence of Angola. Oil is the backbone of the Angola's economy. This sector makes up over 90 percent of the Country's exports. The first oil surveys date back to nineteen hundred and six, and it was not until nineteen fifty-five that the first oil well was discovered. In nineteen sixty-six, Cabinda Gulf Oil Company discovered important oil reserves in Cabinda. From then on, oil started playing one of the most important roles in the Angolan economy, having surpassed coffee in oil exports as of 1973

Kurdistan History and suppression. The Europe of the East, Turkey, Iraqi, Iran, Syria, Asian Kurds. Kurds are united by language and culture, but divided by politics and religion. The Kurds are notoriously fractious, with political formations based on diverse formal ideologies, as well as more traditional clan-based rivalries. Most Kurds are Sunni, some are Shia, and a few are Yazidi. This complexity produces interesting results, as in late 2014 when the Islamist government of Turkey allowed "good" Kurds from Iraq to relieve the siege of Kobane, while prohibiting such aid from the "bad" Kurds of the secular Kurdish groups in Turkey and Syria. The Kurd population, stretching across at least 4 countries, with a diaspora in many more, historically has been hard to quantify. In 1987, estimates suggested that probably numbering close to 16 million kurds, inhabits the wide arc from eastern Turkey and the northwestern part of Syria through Soviet Azerbaijan and Iraq to the northwest of the Zagros Mountains in Iran, respresented the population of what has been referred to as "Kurdistan." About half of all Kurds worldwide lived in Turkey. Most of the rest lived in adjacent regions of Iran, Iraq, and Syri

Ivory Coast Political History. Art, Culture, Ethnic groups and Settlement. Central-West C te d'Ivoire is a lush agricultural landscape, stuffed with rich banana, rice, and cocoa fields. The region is this West African nation's equivalent of the corn belt of Iowa and Illinois. A long drive down stretches of road left pockmarked by the ongoing rainy season yields endless repetitions of the same scene: Tiny villages each home to only a few dozen farmers living in thatched-roof huts quietly tending to crops and livestock. Things are even more peaceful than usual now, as the Muslims that make up this area's dominant religious affiliation celebrate Ramadan. But as you arrive in Yamoussoukro, the nation's capital, a strange monument can be seen towering over the horizon: An enormous gilded cross that adorns the top of what is, by many accounts, the world's largest church. Topping St. Peter's Basilica in Rome by more than 80 feet, Basilica Our Lady of Peace in Yamoussoukro, sometimes called the "basilica in the bush," is a jaw-dropping and bizarre monument to the end of a period only a few decades ago when C te d'Ivoire was competing against other newly-independent African nations to become the cultural and economic powerhouse of the continent

Kenya Art and Culture, a History. The People, Economy, Government and Politics. Today there are around 42 different tribes in Kenya, with varying cultural identities and traditions that have, in some cases, become intertwined over time due to similarities in language and a sharing of the same environment. Visitors to Kenya have the unique opportunity to spend days in the homes of various tribal villages, learning and participating in their daily lives, and even in some cases attending ceremonies. While in the past the development of national parks, in some cases, caused displacement of tribes from traditional grazing areas, today many are employed in the management of conservancies or rangers to protect the wildlife they once kept their cattle safe from

Vorerst ist nicht absehbar, dass es in naherer Zukunft ein Umweltgesetzbuch gibt, das alle umweltrechtlich relevanten Regelungen - vergleichbar dem Sozialrecht - zusammenfasst und einheitlich normiert. So bleibt es bei der Vielzahl an Einzelregelungen. Das Klausurtraining stellt die typischen Problemkonstellationen, wie sie haufig in Ubungs- und Examensprufungen vorkommen, dar. Das Fallbuch legt einen Schwerpunkt darauf, samtliche klausurrelevanten Umweltrechtsbereiche abzudecken, dabei wird das Energierecht ebenso berucksichtigt wie das europaische Umweltrecht. Durch zahlreiche die Fallbearbeitung erganzende Erlauterungen verbindet das Werk die Vorzuge eines Klausurenbuchs mit denen eines Lehrbuchs.

The duo's performative interrogations of architecture excavate political and gender normsThe Paris-based American artists Brennan Gerard and Ryan Kelly (born 1978 and 1979) have collaborated for nearly two decades on performance, video and installation projects blending the movement of conceptualist dance, the strategies of appropriation and institutional critique and the tenets of queer theory. They are perhaps best known for their site-specific dance videos. By staging choreographic and cinematographic works at locations such as Philip Johnson's Glass House or the Maison Carr e temple, the duo rereads architectural icons, subverting their original bourgeois and patriarchal usage and questioning assumptions of gender, sexuality, memory and history. This book documents the duo's first museum survey exhibition at Carr d'art-Mus e d'art contemporain de N mes. The catalog gathers together an extensive array of their video installations, sculptures, site-specific interventions, performances and works on paper.
