Conflict affected, parallel health systems
Ultimately, all five challenges to collaboration stem from the lack of peace in Myanmar. The health systems cannot be 'converged or 'integrated' until there is a peace accord which is acceptable to all actors. EHO/CBHOs want a federal political system, where the health system is devolved, equitable and accessible to all ethnic people. External donors should understand this context and remain neutral by supporting all health actors in a conflict s…

From War on Terror to War onWeather? Rethinking humanitarianism in a new era of chronic emergencies
This special issue of Third World Quarterly makes a case for redirecting attention and resources away from the 'war on terror' and focussing as a matter of urgency on the causes and consequences of global climate change. Global climate change must be recognised as an issue of national and international security. Increased competition for scarce resources and migration are key factors in the propagation of many of today's chronic complex humanitar…
Globalisation and Climate Change in Asia
Asia's economic development successes will create new policy areas to address, as the advances made through globalisation create greater climate change challenges, particularly the impact on urban health. Poverty eradication and higher standards of living both increase demand on resources. Globalisation increases inequalities and those who are currently the losers will carry the greatest burden of the costs in the form of the negative effects of …
Loosing soft power in hard places
The US choice of a misdirected target of priority concern, a ‘War on Terror’, combined with the use of hard power to the absolute detriment of soft power has undermined the enlightenment values that had begun to flourish in the form of humanitarian policies, values and laws which could have informed international cooperation and development in the twenty-first century. The US-led invasion of Iraq in 2003 has had serious implications for humanitar…

Angola
Armed conflict facilitates corruption and Angola presents a dramatic case study of this process. This article explores why the political context represents the key impediment to sustainable development. Solve the political problems and the gates are open for the Angolan people to reap the benefits of an abundant natural resource base with a low population density. The country has been trying to undergo three transitions simultaneously, that from …
Complex emergencies
Ensuring a successful transition from relief to development has proved to be problematic. Institutional complexities complicate complex emergencies still further and in some cases aid has fuelled conflict. Combining peace keeping with humanitarian assistance is particularly sensitive. This article analyses a series of issues which can contribute to an institutional impasse in trying to resolve complex emergencies. It outlines the evolution of thi…

Is democracy necessary for sustainable development
The article examines the considerable literature on the relationship between sustainable development and democracy beginning with an exploration of the concepts. Various models have been put forward to describe this relationship and these can be viewed as various pathologies of development that may trap the unwary. Participation and empowerment are seen as a key to sustainable development by many authors, although there are widely differing inter…

Prospects for the socialist transition of agriculture in Zimbabwe
State Intervention in Agriculture
By the early 1980s, it was becoming increasingly apparent to the Frelimo Government in Mozambique that its agricultural policies were not having the required effects. Production had not recovered to pre-independence levels as intended, agricultural exports remained generally low, and there was hunger in certain areas of the country. Queues and shortages were widespread in the cities, and rationing was introduced in the capital, Maputo. There were…
Land Use and Agricultural Productivity in Zimbabwe
Given a continuation of current trends, with increasing population growth and declining food production, Southern Africa (excluding South Africa) which could nearly feed itself during 1979-81, will be only 64 per cent self-sufficient by the turn of the century. Zimbabwe has a particularly important rôle to play in trying to prevent such a disaster. It is by far the most important exporter of food and cash crops in the region, and has been allocat…

Is Socialism Possible on the Periphery
Can a transition to socialism occur in an underdeveloped country? The question has long been posed by Marxists and has caused as many divisions as any other single issue of theory. For the two thirds of the world's population who live "on the periphery" this is the central question, and the differing answers have determined the various strategies adopted by their revolutionary parties. There remain many who would deny any possibility of a sociali…
