Non-Aligned Movement

The end of the Cold War, and the collapse of the second world of international communism, has also robbed the third world and the non-aligned movement of most of their meaning. Hindsight enables us to see how the balance of terror between two Superpowers encouraged the suspension of disbelief in the sovereign equality of extraordinarily dissimilar members of the United Nations, even the tiniest of which were wooed by the Superpowers. [Pg.13]

Statement by Ambassador Noor Farida Ariffin, Permanent Representative of Malaysia to the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons on Behalf of the States Parties of the Non-Aligned Movement to the Chemical Weapons Convention and China, The Hague, 30 April 2003, p. 5. [Pg.71]

B). Although facial differentiation would not be feasible in this case due to the planar alignment, the Lewis acid will be syn or anti to particular substituents (R ). The third, a bent non-planar mode of bonding results from movement of the metal out of the carbonyl n nodal plane (C), which is often adopted by the bulky Lewis acids. The last mode is a coordination of metal to the C=0 n bond, where the carbonyl is formally the donor, but back-bonding into the C=0 n orbital occurs (D), This mode has been reported for transition metal complexes [5J. The metal center is... [Pg.2]

The application of an electric field always causes some physical changes in the medium even if the liquid molecules are non-polar, the electrons in the molecule will be affected by the electric field. The movement of electrons within the molecule results in an induced dipole, ft, and the alignment of the induced dipoles with the electric field gives induced polarization. For example, if a positive charge is placed above the plane of a neutral benzene molecule, the average positions of the electrons will shift upward, giving the benzene molecule a dipole moment whose direction is perpendicular to the molecular plane. In summary, when a non-polar molecule is subjected to an electric field, the electrons in the molecule are displaced from their ordinary positions so that the electron clouds and nuclei are attracted in opposite directions and a dipole is induced thus the molecule temporarily has an induced dipole moment, ft. [Pg.14]

The non-polar plastics are truly covalent and generally have symmetrical molecules. In these materials there are no polar dipoles present and the application of an electric field does not try to align any dipoles. The electric field does, however, move the electrons slightly in the direction of the electric field to create electron polarization , in this case the only movement is that of electrons and this is effectively instantaneous. Examples of non-polar plastics are PTFE (and many other fluoropolymers), PE, PP and PS and these materials tend to have high resistivities and low dielectric constants. [Pg.862]
