Stage Segmentation of Rural Transformation and Comparisons Among Bangladesh, China, Indonesia, and Pakistan
This paper contributes a new paradigm for international agricultural development research. It uses machine learning techniques to aid expert diagnosis of development problems in conjunction with New Structural Economics (NSE) to analyse and design policies to enable effective rural transformation. It conducts a multi‐country, multi‐regional, multi‐level and multi‐dimensional analysis in Bangladesh, China, Indonesia, and Pakistan to identify stage…
Hard Lessons from South Sudan
South Sudan's tragic history of independent statehood raises important questions about the future of the United Nations Mission in South Sudan (UNMISS). UNMISS cannot bring peace to the country on its own. For that to happen, South Sudan's militarised form of governance and political economy must be transformed. Recognising UNMISS's limitations does not, however, preclude a vital and continuing role for the mission. UNMISS must work to reduce ala…
Heroes Sung and Unsung
Petr Kuzmich Kozlov and Roy Chapman Andrews were well known figures in the world of popular culture, exploration, and science of their respective homelands, Imperial Russia and America. In the early years of the twentieth century, both were famous for spectacular discoveries in the deserts of Mongolia – Kozlov in archeology and Andrews in paleontology. Both were celebrity explorers in their native countries when they met in Mongolia in 1922, and …
Michael David-Fox. Crossing Borders
Soviet history, like histories of any number of countries, has been both plagued and stimulated by debates about exceptionalism. In the Soviet case, this debate has been fueled on the one side by Soviet self-perceptions of revolutionary iconoclasm, and on the other by critics who saw the USSR as a hostile aberration from something called “Western” modern development. In Crossing Borders: Modernity, Ideology, and Culture in Russia and the Soviet U…
Stalin and the Lubianka
Stalin and the Lubianka
"This fascinating documentary history is the first English-language exploration of Joseph Stalin's relationship with, and manipulation of, the Soviet political police. The story follows the changing functions, organization, and fortunes of the political police and security organs from the early 1920s until Stalin's death in 1953, and it provides documented detail about how Stalin used these organs to achieve and maintain undisputed power. Althoug…
Sarah Davies, James Harris, Stalin’s World, Dictating the Soviet Order
Sarah Davies and James Harris have set themselves the task of trying to understand Stalin. They do this primarily through an examination of the kinds of information that Stalin had at hand, and through which he viewed the world. These two authors have spent years collectively culling and sifting through now available documents from Stalin’s personal archives—the mass of daily reports prepared for his reading, private correspondence, drafts of spe…
Alain Blum, Yuri Shapoval, Faux coupables
Alain Blum and Yuri Shapoval have produced an insightful study of Soviet surveillance practices during the 1920s and early 1930s. Their book details the mechanics of political police surveillance and the kinds of information that went into surveillance reports. The authors describe how that information was used in the evolving system of political repression under the Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin, and the corrosive effects of police surveillance …

Au début de la décennie, les dirigeants du parti et de l’OGPU menèrent des campagnes de répression de masse contre des classes jugées hostiles, en particulier les petits propriétaires terriens. Pendant la collectivisation et la dékoulakisation, la répre…

Private military force and challenges for the future
The article calls for greater clarity and analytical rigour in the debate over the role of private military actors in international affairs. It argues that the blanket term ‘mercenary’ is inappropriate and subsumes different types of private operation under one emotive, negative heading. The article goes on to outline the structures of five different types of privatised entities; independent military companies, proxy companies, security companies…
Africa's great war
The conflict in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DROC) has reinforced Africa's status as a strategic ghetto in the post-Cold War world. The absence of non-African involvement or even interest underscores a break with earlier eras of colonial ambition and Cold War rivalries. Some observers have seen in this war the division of DROC and thus the break-up of central Africa. This does not, however, reflect the agendas of the states involved in the c…

L'ère de la Grande Retraite aurait suivi la période révolu- tionnaire du début des années 30 et précédé la soudaine vague de violence provoquée par l'État pendant les années 1937 et 1938.
