THE CHINESE GOVERNMENT AND THE PEOPLE HAVE ALWAYS FELT THAT DEMOCRACY WAS UNREACHABLE FOR THEM. YET, SINCE THE STUDENT DEMONSTRATIONS DURING THE SUMMER OF 1989, THE GOAL SEEMS MORE REALISTIC. AFTER NEARLY A CENTURY OF STRUGGLING FOR DEMOCRACY, IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THE CHINESE HAVE CREATED THE CONDITIONS FOR IT. THIS ARTICLE ADDRESSES THE QUESTIONS: HOW WOULD THE TRANSITION OCCUR? WHAT WOULD A CHINESE DEMOCRACY BE LIKE? THE EXAMPLE OF TIAWAN IS DISCUSSED, AS WELL AS COMPARING THE CONDITIONS IN CHINA TO THOSE IN POORER DEMOCRACIES. CHINA HAS A REALATIVELY EQUAL DISTRIBUTION OF WEALTH, WHICH IS GENERALLY CONSIDERED A HELPFUL CONDITION FOR DEMOCRACY. IT ALSO HAS STRONG POLICE AND MILITARY INSTITUTIONS WHICH ARE AS NECESSARY FOR KEEPING THE PEACE IN A DEMOCRACY AS IN A DICTATORSHIP.
This essay explores the issue of drug trafficking and production in Myanmar to understand the extent of damage this problematic situation has on the South East Asian region and to discuss what steps are being taken by institutions to stem the proliferation of narcotics such as heroin and amphetamines. Myanmar's turbulent political history and unique geographical position have been explained to garner knowledge on why drug trafficking and production are so closely associated with the nation. The policymaking efforts of the Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) to combat drug trafficking and production in the region have so far been plagued by obstructions such as internal corruption, a lack of multilateral cooperation and insufficient resources. These barriers combine to create policy that it is aligned closer to empty rhetoric than actual physical implementation. The ASEAN and China Cooperative Operations in Response to Dangerous Drugs (ACCORD) agreement has shown signs of a changing tide toward effective policymaking, due mainly to China stepping up to the plate of regional leadership. This essay recommends that in order to successfully fight drug trafficking and production, ASEAN need to establish more realistic and achievable goals with an emphasis on rehabilitation rather than punishment. Furthermore, compliance mechanisms should be put in place by ASEAN so that countries such as Myanmar, who often deviate from the status quo of drug policy, will be reprimanded for doing so in the future. Thus, creating an environment of multilateral cooperation, togetherness and consistency in relation to combatting the illegal drug trafficking and production trade

Nathan Snaza brings contemporary feminist and queer popular culture's resurging interest in esoteric practices like tarot and witchcraft into conversation with Black feminist and new materialist thought to highlight new ways of rejecting the colonialist and racist mission of enlightenment modernity.

"The Element highlights the monopolization and exclusion from high-value knowledge in analysing divergent and, recently, partially convergent income trends across 200-odd years of the global capitalist economy. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core"--
In Tendings, Nathan Snaza brings contemporary feminist and queer popular culture's resurging interest in esoteric practices like tarot and witchcraft into conversation with Black feminist and new materialist thought. Analyzing writing and performances by Maryse Condé, Barbara Ehrenreich and Deirdre English, Starhawk, Christina Sharpe, Alexis Pauline Gumbs, and others, Snaza introduces his theory of tending as a concept that links ontology, attunement, care, and anticipatory action to explore how worlds persist through everyday acts of participation. In contrast to the universalizing presuppositions of the enlightenment, Snaza shows how certain feminist occult and esoteric practices constitute what he calls an endarkenment that embraces decolonial spiritual knowledge. Highlighting how endarkenment practices challenge universal presumptions and reject the racializing and colonialist mission of enlightenment modernity, Snaza demonstrates the ways esoterism affirms a pluriversal worldview that reimagines what it means to live in a more-than-human world
