AbstractThis article examines the recurrence of violence in the contemporary world based on the premise that states can use their monopoly of violence not only for preserving the life of their citizens but also for the sake of terror and annihilation. This ambiguous nature of the use of violence derives from the fact that the legal order of the state is a function of concrete acts of bloodshed and killing. The state bases the law on violence because authorities fear the psychological attraction that bloodshed has on the human imagination. The contagious character of violence, however, is not based on man's innate potential for aggression. Rather, it depends on the nature of the reciprocity of social relations. Violent conflict often feeds on negative social communication such as hatred and desire for vengeance. Yet, faced with the inevitable recurrence of violence humans have the capacity to act on the spiral of vengeance. One possible way to pacify violence is to transform the destructive, negative reciprocity of retaliation into the creative, positive reciprocity of active non‐violence.

IntroductionLow birth weight (LBW) is an important indicator of newborn survival and is associated with higher risk of infant mortality, morbidity and long term health consequences later in life. Little has been explored on the recurrence of LBW and associated risk factors in developing countries including Tanzania.
Objectives and ApproachThis study aimed to determine incidence, recurrence and associated risk factors for in Northern Tanzania.
MethodsThis was a retrospective cohort study using maternally-linked data from Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Centre (KCMC) medical birth registry. A total of 48,008 births from 8,417 women who delivered live born between 2000 and 2014 were followed for subsequent deliveries. Recurrence risk with 95% Confidence Interval for LBW and associated risk factors were estimated in a multivariate log binomial model while accounting for correlation between births of the same mother.
ResultsIncidence of LBW was 7.9%. The recurrence rate of LBW was 24.9% compared with 5.9% for those who had normal birth weight babies in first pregnancy. This corresponded to a relative risk of 3.7 (95% CI: 3.10 – 4.52). Some maternal conditions in the first pregnancy were associated with increased risk of LBW in the subsequent pregnancy. These include; HIV positive status (RR 2.0; 95% CI 1.26 – 3.21), preterm birth (RR 1.2; 95% CI 1.03 – 1.63) and preeclampsia (RR 1.8; 95% CI 1.26 – 2.45). Only preeclampsia in the first pregnancy was associated with increased risk of recurrent of LBW (RR: 1.6 95% CI 1.01-2.54).
Conclusion/ImplicationsAlthough the incidence of LBW is low in the study population, but the recurrence risk is high. Preeclampsia in the first pregnancy was associated with recurrent LBW. Early prenatal identification of women at risk of preeclampsia to address modifiable risk factors and counsel mothers on persisting risk factors for recurrence
This thesis argues that the different reactions of the population and rival elites to executive attempts to extend term limits in Rwanda and Burundi reflect the different ways civil wars ended in these two countries. In Rwanda, a military victory resulted in institutions that placed less constraint on the ruling party, while in Burundi, a negotiated settlement placed comparatively greater constraints on the ruling party. As a result, the major party in Rwanda was more powerful than the major power in Burundi, and thus more capable to co-opt or coerce the opposition. This paper uses a most-similar case design to test the hypothesis that civil wars that end in negotiated settlements are more likely to become unstable than a civil war that ends in a military victory when executives attempt to extend their term limits and finds that the civil war outcome was instrumental in explaining the divergent reactions in both countries. This paper has important implications for those interested in post-conflict situations and executive term-limit extensions. ; 2017-12-01 ; B.A. ; College of Sciences, Political Science ; Bachelors ; This record was generated from author submitted information.

This article analyzes the surprisingly consistent way in which Sadeq Hedayat's novella, The Blind Owl, represents the concept of eternal recurrence. Hedayat employs repetition in a unique manner. Neither narrator ever remarks upon or seems to notice that events, motifs, and similar or identical epithets and phrasings which arise in their own thoughts and utterances are repeating, but they rather encounter every repeated event or thought as if it had only just occurred for the first time. While I do not claim that Hedayat was in any meaningful way a 'Nietzschean' thinker, philosophical ideas from Nietzsche's works and those of the French thinkers who came after, most notably Klossowski and Deleuze, interact strikingly with The Blind Owl and seem to bring hitherto unnoticed dimensions of this important work to our attention. Notably, Hedayat depicts a struggle with nihilism that is informed by the philosophical questions surrounding what came to be known as existentialism, but in a manner that is not merely derivative of European models.
