The International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda was created on 8 November 1994 by the United Nations Security Council, of which it is a subsidiary body. Its task is to help restore and maintain peace and bring about national reconciliation by trying persons allegedly responsible for acts of genocide and other grave breaches of international humanitarian law committed in Rwanda and Rwandan citizens suspected of committing such acts and violations in the territory of neighbouring States between 1 January and 31 December 1994.

Switching between linearly polarized states of slightly different optical frequencies with the same transversemode pattern is found, as the injection current is increased. Switchings found here for semiconductor rate-equation models incorporating a vector electric field, birefringence, and the α factor are similar to previously reported experimental results. © 1996 Optical Society of America. ; This study was partially supported by CICYT (Spain) projects TIC95/0563 and PB94/1167 and European Union HCM grant CHRX-CT-93-0114. ; Peer Reviewed

This study reports the results of what may best be described as a preliminary review and characterization of potential cultural resources on a 900 acre tract situated in southeastern Berkeley County, between Moncks Corner to the north and Goose Creek to the south, and just east of U.S. 52. This current study has not included any field investigations and is not intended to meet or satisfy cultural resources management goals of either federal or state legislation or regulations.

Common definitions of peace are examined, & an alternative definition of peace as the absence of overt physical violence is promoted. Prerequisites for peace are argued to be democratic/republican governance & the ownership of private property. A World Code of Laws & a League of Peace as envisioned by Immanuel Kant are described. A notion of soveriegnty based on national identity rather than existing territorial states is advanced; recommendations for accomplishing such transformation are offered.

The problem of pay compression between academic ranks at public universities is investigated using salary information from a national faculty salary survey conducted by the National Association of State Universities and Land-Grant Colleges. A pay compression measurement methodology is presented. Special attention is given to compression in "high-demand" disciplines, including those found in business schools. Over the decade 1979/80 to 1989/90, pay compression has worsened in certain disciplines and has been relieved in others. Implications and consequences are discussed.

This paper reviews French concepts of fatigue syn dromes, with a special emphasis on a reputedly unique ly French diagnosis: spasmophilia. Neurasthenia has virtually no place in contemporary French nosology of fatigue states, and chronic fatigue syndrome has not been accepted by all French researchers. The contro versies on neurasthenia and spasmophilia illustrate some of the social uses of diagnostic categories (e.g., legitimation of symptoms) and the ambivalence of physicians toward diagnostic labels based on clinical criteria.

AIDS is now a disease primarily of disadvantaged people of color, and a particularly vulnerable group is poor women of color. This article presents a general view of HIV testing from the perspective of the contemporary surveillance and control of urban populations, using a proposed Illinois state neonatal-maternal testing policy targeted at high seroprevalence areas as an example to demonstrate that surveillance and the regulation of women's bodies as an AIDS-control strategy reproduce hegemonic relationships of power.

Three outcomes of the problem of institutionalizing hemispheric free trade seem possible: (1) a U.S.-centered series of multilateral and bilateral free trade areas in which only the United States enjoys truly hemispheric free trade; (2) a set of integrated subregional free trade agreements, emanating from the North American Free Trade Area if it is completed; or (3) a hemispherewide system coordinated by inter-American agencies—its realization, if it is to be, is a long way away.

Urban forestry is a new science, with monitoring techniques that are still evolving. Tree inventory is most commonly practiced, but we are learning to better monitor the benefits and liabilities provided by urban trees. These results are often for political, social, and biological purposes. Although most monitoring is done at the project or local level, examples of state and national projects are given. Quality control procedures are infrequently used, but could substantially improve the accuracy of data collected.

"Reviewed October 1993." ; Citizens have the duty and opportunity to help make many group decisions about complex issues. Group decisions are those in which two or more people have a voice or vote. The decision may affect one or more persons individually or as a group. The group decision may be of a local nature such as a change in school tax, or a state problem such as water legislation, or a national issue such as commodity referendum.

This public records information leaflet number 6 states that you should always inspect microfilm to ensure that it meets minimum quality standards. And if your original records are to be destroyed after being filmed, that inspection is vital. Too often government offices that fail to test their film properly find their film has deteriorated when they need the information it held years later. Only testing can ensure the durability of film and the legibility of copies made from it.

Developed is a refined & systematic concept of state-business relations based on the nation of policy network. The major dimensions of policy networks are identified: (1) number & type of actors, (2) function of networks, (3) structure, (4) institutionalization, (5) rules of conduct, (6) power relations, & (7) actor strategies. Certain popular conventional policy-making arrangements (eg, sectoral corporation, sponsored pluralism, & clientelism) are examined in terms of these network dimensions. 2 Tables, 49 References.

Love of a friend and gratitude for the benefactions of a teacher have moved Paul Caringella, Juergen Gebhardt, Thomas A. Hollweck, and Ellis Sandoz to shoulder the gigantic task of publishing all of the major writings of Eric Voegelin in a uniform edition.1 Louisiana State University Press, Voegelin's publisher of choice since 1956, has committed itself to bringing out thirty-four volumes in which his works will be grouped in formal categories, and arranged in roughly chronological order within each classification.
