挽歌背后的赞歌——山西省临汾民兵参加襄汾“9·8”溃坝事故抢险救援行动纪实

这是一篇迟来的报道,这是一篇背后的新闻。之所以迟来,是因为它缘于去年的一次特大灾难,也是人们不想再提及和不愿被揭开的伤痛;之所以是背后,是因为它被当时媒体的负面报道所冲淡,以致人们直面的是惨痛的教训和悲愤的追责。目前,记者赴基层采访,亲临事发现场,虽已不见当时的惨状,但眼前的残垣断壁仍让人心有余悸。谈及当时的救灾情况,随着军分区领导的娓娓道来,一幅幅惊心动魄、震撼人心的抢险画面清晰重现。一时间,记者有了一种强烈的报道冲动。虽说,灾难对人们来说,也许是一首充满悲情、不堪回首的挽歌,但对于灾难背后那一曲曲抢险救灾的赞歌,人们同样不能忘却,同样需要讴歌传颂。

谈二十一世纪应如何做教师

现在有许多老教师都有这样的感叹:教书数十年了,可越教越不会教了!这看来惶惑心理的流露.其实是"实话实说".一直以来都沿用一种模式"老师讲,学生听",教师就是从事教学的"教书匠".这种教学模式取消了学生的主人翁地位,学生只是被动地装老师灌入的大多不理解的东西.社会在发展,社会需求也必然在不断地变化,教育应该随着社会对人才的需求去改变教学方法,培养社会需要的人才,才能适应社会的需要,促进社会的发展.

论武器装备的劣势对志愿军作战的影响

在革命战争年代,中国共产党领导的人民军队以劣势装备先后打败了装备精良的日本军队和国民党军队,建立了新中国.但抗美援朝战争爆发后,中国人民志愿军在面对美国军队时发现:以往很多行之有效的经验不灵了.究其原因,主要是美军对志愿军在武器装备方面占有绝对优势,这种优势是日军对八路军、新四军的优势和国民党军对人民解放军的优势远远不能比拟的.这一特点深刻影响了志愿军的作战行动,改变了人民军队在以往战争中形成的很多作战原则,也深刻影响了抗美援朝战争的结局.

浅谈农牧团场学校管理

农牧团场学校自建校之初就承载着来自家长和社会越来越多的关注和期望。因为自然环境的恶劣,经济发展的缓慢落后,职工群众收入和生活水平的低下,使家长们把希望寄托在孩子身上,希望他们能很好地成长成才,将来能为团场建设出力,能为自己的发展奠定基础。因此学校的兴衰荣辱牵连着千家万户的心,使学校的领导、教师都感受到了随之而来的责任和压力。要办好团场学校,办出职工群众满意的教育,学校管理者特别是校长必须确立新的学校观和管理观,通过管理创新来应对变化,突出学校管理为学生、教师和学校的发展服务的思想,尊重广大师生,激励他们不断…     

Helping hands: civil–military cooperation and Italy's military operation abroad

In the Post-Bipolar Era the growing complexity of the military operations requires a new approach for the resolution of international crises. Since the end of the Cold War, peace support operations (PSO) have become the mainstay and principal occupation of most Western armies. At the same time, Italy has been one of the most important actors in such an area. The article focuses on the cooperation between military and civil components (a process called CIMIC) as a key variable in the Italian PSOs. We will analyse in detail the main lessons learned from past military interventions as well as the general context in which new tendencies are taking place. The maintaining of a minimum security frame becomes essential to fulfil activities ‘collateral’ to the mission: reconstructing services and infrastructure, food distribution, water and medication, law and order, de-mining, training of local forces, and supporting local institutions. These are the main tasks to obtain thrust and support from the population.

Tacit support for terrorism: The rapprochement between the USSR and Palestinian guerrilla organizations following the 1967 war

This article demonstrates the inconsistent and wavering Soviet attitude towards national liberation movements in general and the Palestinian organizations in particular. Until the late 1960s, the Soviets viewed these organizations with suspicion, hesitating to engage in political dialogue with them. However, in the 1970s, political and military events in the region, as well as modifications in the Kremlin's Cold War strategies, led to a general shift towards the Middle East in Soviet foreign policy. Soviet leaders showed increased willingness to provide certain Palestinian organizations with arms with which to conduct terrorist activities against Israeli, pro-Israeli, Jewish and Western targets. The article explores the complex relations between Palestinian organizations and the USSR in the field of international terror. The study also exposes and analyzes the nature and content of Soviet–Palestinian arms dialogues and transactions. It provides clear evidence that Soviet policymakers and other luminaries were fully informed of, and sometimes directly involved in, these transactions and dialogues at the highest levels.     

Desert insurgency: lessons from the third Tuareg rebellion

This article provides an in-depth examination and analysis of the 2006–2009 Tuareg rebellion in Mali and Niger. It identifies the underlying reasons behind the rebellion, explores contrasting counter-insurgency (COIN) strategies employed by the two governments, and presents some lessons learned. While both COIN approaches ultimately produced similar peace settlements, the article argues that the Malian strategy of reconciliation combined with the selective use of force was far more effective than the Nigerien iron fist approach at limiting the size and scope of the insurgency and producing a more sustainable peace. It concludes by looking at the role of external actors, particularly the United States, and how the failure to internationalize the conflict was actually more beneficial to the local COIN effort, as well as to the longer strategic interests of the United States in the region.     

Colombia: Changing strategy amidst the struggle

From 1965 to the present, Colombia has been confronted by the insurgency of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC). The threat reached a new level in 1996 with the advent of mobile warfare, whereby large units sought to neutralize the military in an effort to seize power and institute a Marxist-Leninist regime. Unlike Vietnam, what followed was a regaining of the strategic initiative by the government and a decimation of the insurgent threat. This was accomplished with US assistance but from first to last was driven by Colombian leadership and strategy. The strategy which led to this signal change, ‘Democratic Security’, unfolded under the leadership of President Álvaro Uribe. It was a civil–military partnership, which sought to expand the writ of Colombian democracy to all elements of society. Securing the population provided the shield behind which economic, social, and political life could occur as driven by the will of the people. It was the agreement upon legitimacy as the strategic goal and reform as the route to that goal which allowed the Colombians and the Americans to work so well together.

Cyber sheiks and grassroots jihadis: the war in Syria and the devolution of the Bosnian Salafi communities

ABSTRACT

What was the scope of the Bosnian jihadi participation in the war in Syria? Did the Bosnian volunteers tend to join one particular faction? Why did the Bosnian youngsters decide to join the holy war in the Levant? Was this an organized and hierarchical process or was this a grassroots movement? Last, were all the Salafis in Bosnia supportive of this dynamic or did this process cause internal frictions? These are some of the questions that this research will try to answer.     

Auctions in the post‐change‐order period

A change order is frequently initiated by either the supplier or the buyer, especially when the contract is long‐term or when the contractual design is complex. In response to a change order, the buyer can enter a bargaining process to negotiate a new price. If the bargaining fails, she pays a cancellation fee (or penalty) and opens an auction. We call this process the sequential bargaining‐auction (BA). At the time of bargaining, the buyer is uncertain as to whether the bargained price is set to her advantage; indeed, she might, or might not, obtain a better price in the new auction. To overcome these difficulties, we propose a new change‐order‐handling mechanism by which the buyer has an option to change the contractual supplier after bargaining ends with a bargained price. We call this the option mechanism. By this mechanism, the privilege of selling products or services is transferred to a new supplier if the buyer exercises the option. To exercise the option, the buyer pays a prespecified cash payment, which we call the switch price, to the original supplier. If the option is not exercised, the bargained price remains in effect. When a switch price is proposed by the buyer, the supplier decides whether or not to accept it. If the supplier accepts it, the buyer opens an auction. The option is exercised when there is a winner in the auction. This article shows how, under the option mechanism, the optimal switch price and the optimal reserve price are determined. Compared to the sequential BA, both the buyer and the supplier benefit. Additionally, the option mechanism coordinates the supply chain consisting of the two parties. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

THE PROHIBITION OF BLINDING AS A METHOD OF WARFARE

Abstract

From the 1982 Maitatsine Uprising to the 2009 Kala Kato Riot, Nigeria has been bedevilled by ethno-religious uprisings with devastating human and material losses. In almost all these crises the police and the military have featured prominently as agencies tasked with the responsibility of maintaining law and order and suppressing insurrection. While it was not alleged that they precipitated some of these risings perhaps in their attempts to stem or nip them in the bud, they have been accused of escalating the conflict either by their slow and inadequate responses, their partisanship and their arbitrary responses, or by their slackness in managing the crises and their aftermath. However, but for their efforts the security basis of the Nigerian state would have been considerably compromised by religious fundamentalism given the level of preparedness of the groups involved, their resistance and, more importantly, the recurrent nature of the uprisings. This article reflects on the management of ethno-religious uprisings in Nigeria by the police and the military. It considers the nature of the security agencies' involvement in the crises and examines the factors both within the agencies and in the larger Nigerian society which have aided or hindered their effective management of the conflicts.
