CRITISIM ABOUT IMF AND WORLD BANK

Often the conditionalities are attached without due regard for the borrower countries’ individual circumstances and the prescriptive recommendations by the World Bank and IMF fail to resolve the economic problems within the countries. As a example author is using Ecuador that is a small country in South America. In 1968- 1998 IMF and World Bank interviened with large loans to help the country but the growth of poverty increased form 50% to 70%, under or unemployment 15%to 70% and the public debt grew from 240 million to 16 billion (Perkins, 2004, lk 239). This essay is going to explore how this kind of thing could have happened? The idea is not to blame well-known organizations. The idea is to observe and explain what happened to Ecuador and discuss if the criticism about this matter is grounded. In this essay author is going to use a book “ Confessions of an Economic Hitman“ by John Perkins that spent a year on New York Times bestseller list in 2004 and caused lot of

Education

taught individually, or learned wholly as byproducts of studying mathematics, geography, history, etc? It is obvious that such skills are more valuable than any single subject which might be used as the vehicle to develop them. Inequality. Some students, subjected to identical classwork, learn rapidly and progress, while others fail. How can we predict success or failure, and compensate the at-risk children? Few practical options may be available to teachers. It is inevitable in universal public schooling that the extreme students, either dull or bright, will be hurt by our emphasis on the average. It is horrible to admit, but our society cannot assume that all members are capable of being well educated. We have unequal physical, mental and environmental status, and the poorer fringe will always exist. Those of us lucky enough to have a conscience, mature enough to see how things really are, must do what we can to help the less fortunate. Obligation to help

Business peciliarities in Ukraine and Bealrus

on the budget--now and especially in the future. Debt builds 10 Compounding this was the financial crisis that rocked the international economic system in 2007­2008. Ukraine's lack of sound domestic economic structures and debt accumulation made it especially difficult for the country to weather the financial storm. Gross reserves have grown from less than a month's imports to around five months' worth from 2005 to 2010, still a modest level. Public and private foreign debt has recently risen fast from more than $10 billion in 1997­2002 to over $100 billion in 2008­2009. The 2008 level was 56.4 percent of GDP and 118.7 percent of exports. In 2009, as GDP declined and the UAH weakened, external debt stock was 91.5 percent of GDP and 191.6 percent of annual exports--clearly an unsustainable level for Ukraine. In late 2011, Ukraine's official reserves were some $30 billion. Paying back its debt--barring a

EU Internal Market

all Member States are obliged to allow goods that are legally produced and marketed in other Member States to circulate and to be placed on their markets.2 Exceptions to the prohibition of measures having an effect equivalent to that of quantitative restrictions Article 36 TFEU allows Member States to take measures having an effect equivalent to quantitative restrictions when these are justified by general, non-economic considerations (e.g. public morality, public policy or public security), so basically a principle of proportionality. All exceptions to the general principle must be interpreted strictly and there should be no disguised restriction on trade between Member States.3 Harmonisation of national legislation Article 95 of the EC Treaty, as modified by the Maastricht Treaty abide are Member States to adopt or better to say to harmonize local laws and directives to remove obstacles created by

Law-makers breaking the law: torture as a justified interrogation technique?

Foucault elaborates on this, describing the confirmation of absolute sovereign power obtained by torturing criminals in France in the late 18th century. People in power meant to scare the population by showing their ruthlessness, thinking that if the population is afraid, they will be obedient too. By witnessing torture of criminals, also to a certain level agreement was supposed. The fact that such methods are no more, is mostly due to the lack of public discontent. Even if they were criminals, public corporal punishment was found too inhumane (Foucault, 1977). Torture can be a means of punishment on its own, however, the public character of it however serves an additional purpose. The aim of punishment according to utilitarianism as such is prevention. The punishment thus focuses on the future. In this, 4

Public International Law is a system of law

Süüria ­ chemical weapons doctrine is one of the strongest doctrine ever, respected by almost everyone, that's why people are so shocked about the events there. It's a grave violation of PIL. If there's enough evidence that chemical weapons were used, then war is basically a legal method, but not fully, because it isn't one of the reasons that allows war as a method to resolve conflict. Differences: Public International Law Private International Law = conflict of laws Subjects States, intergovernmental Regulates relations between organisations and some specific private persons and legal stuff (Red Cross; nations persons (person vs person,

Thesis Kivimaa August 2022

11 According to survey done among 2000 cybersecurity specialists, main security concerns are (Schulze, 2017) - Data loss (57%), threats to data privacy (49%), breaches of confidentiality (47%),traditional security tools and knowledge are not designed for cloud (78%), compliance (36%). According to SANS Institute (2016) very minimal security measures should be: Anti- malware, data loss prevention (DLP), encryption, federated identity and access management, firewalls, IDS/IPS, multifactor authentication, network access controls and VPN. We can easily say that most companies (especially smaller) dont even fill the minimal security requirements. One potential solution would be using the reference model to optimize their security spendings and also getting a quantitative efficency/security level upon which to improve their security standing in the future. Same reference model should be used by CSP-s to provide their security
