Political Parties

Pressure groups in the environmentally aware political parties can make excessive demands. Often good public relations meetings can meet these, but the more reputable cooling tower suppliers can be invaluable in dealing with such matters. [Pg.532]

Baath Party—The official political party in Iraq until the United States debaathified Iraq in May 2003, after a war that lasted a little over a month. Saddam Hussein, the former ruler of the Baath Party, was targeted by American-led coalition forces and fled. Baath Party members have been officially banned from participating in any new government in Iraq. [Pg.30]

Moreover, the use of edible oils such as rapeseed, soybean and palm oils is the subject of continuous attack from both the media and some political parties, while concerns have been raised also by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations [3]. From the environmental point of view, an increasing demand for palm oil is spurring the destruction of Asia s forests, and rapeseed, widely grown in Europe, is said to lower biodiversity. [Pg.327]

Social systems (human enterprises that form out of self-imposed rules), such as business companies, political parties, families, tribes etc. armies, churches. [Pg.110]

Consider, for example, a political party, or a family, whereby the rules that define a party or a family can be seen as a kind of boundary given by the social structure... [Pg.175]

Why did this Kadazan ethnic identity, fragile and innovative as it was, become the basis for the colony s infant politicisation, despite the preference of its British mentors for multi-racial political parties The reasons are very similar to those which underlay the formation of the racially exclusive Malay party, UMNO, in Malaya in 1946, in somewhat similar conditions. The Malays of Malaya then, and the Kadazans of Sabah in 1961, believed that they were the underdogs in educational and economic terms, certain to be manipulated or absorbed in any... [Pg.194]

Exercise. Show that P(x) must be a monotone non-decreasing function with P(— oo) = 0 and P(+ oo) = 1. What is its relation to Exercise. An opinion poll is conducted in a country with many political parties. How large a sample is needed to be reasonably sure that a party of 5 percent will show up in it with a percentage between 4.5 and 5.5 ... [Pg.4]

Valuation. In the valuation step, all impacts are multiplied by norm factors. The resulting figures are added up to yield a single total figure. The norm factors are subjective, for they express the relative importance one gives to totally different environment effects. This subjectivity can be made more acceptable by having the norm factors set by a panel with representatives of various worldviews or political parties. [Pg.519]

Now that Germany is reunited, a devastating judgment must be passed upon all the established political parties with regards to their political competence. From the standpoint of the present, the Repub-likaner were the only party, of those involved at the time, with a correct estimation of the historical and political forces, even if they were subsequently booted out by the turncoats of reunification. I was in the party because all the other parties had abandoned, or were about to abandon in an absolutely unconstitutional manner, the principle of reunification, a principle laid down in the preamble to the German constitution. [Pg.306]

The young people that streamed into the Republikaner party at that time wanted to do something for German reunification, since this was impossible in almost any other political party. Former members of the CDU, the SPD and the FDP joined, as well as people from right-wing splinter parties and many people who had never been in any party at... [Pg.306]

The question of the executive and judicial means by which the people can be guaranteed to be kept comprehensively and truthfully informed is bound to be a difficult one in view of the fundamental freedoms of press and speech. It would be necessary to require, for example, that the media be subject to democratic control in that the formation of political or economic monopolies would be prevented. One proposal would be to allow access to the media in their area of operations to political parties proportional to the vote they received or to socially-concerned organizations (such as religions) proportional to their membership, without a limiting minimum percent. [Pg.402]

Complicating the situation is the general belief shared by the public, media, and political parties (though never fully proven) that many Americans are forced to make choices between needed drugs and other life necessities, sug-... [Pg.360]

Anarchists are those who believe any form of government is bad, in contrast totalitarians believe there should be one political party that rules a nation. [Pg.92]

Unfortunately, the advertisements of the BAU interest groups and leaders of both political parties still talk of "clean coal" and "safe nuclear" energy (as if such existed) instead of standing up to the powerful business interests for whom maintaining the "status quo" is profitable. A majority of voters tolerate this, because to them BAU vs. renewable is a left-right issue and renew-... [Pg.537]

The Committee included representatives of the political parties represented in the Parliament who acted together with technical experts... [Pg.47]

A. The political parties are meeting with the hopes of clearing up their differences. [Pg.111]

B. The political parties have entered into negotiations in an attempt to resolve their conflict. [Pg.111]

Example I noticed that sentence A says the political parties are meeting, whereas sentence B says they have entered into negotiations. ... [Pg.111]

Almost everybody is a citizen with rights and duties. So he can influence the politicians of his district, political parties, authorities and press in his region or even at higher levels. We should use this power in favour of nature conservation. [Pg.589]

This is socially unusual for us. If you join a sports club, a professional group, a great-books discussion group, or a political party, for example, you expect that a certain amount of in-group jargon will be developed, and some specialization in the way you see the world while with the group, but... [Pg.253]
