Equality for all? – Human Rights in Europe
12 Nov 2018
Human dignity, freedom, democracy, equality, the rule of law and respect for human rights – these values are embedded in the EU treaties. The EU Charter of Fundamental Rights is a clear and strong statement of EU citizens rights. Even though Europe stands for equality – are there differences to the way human rights are being achieved?
Of course, we all know that over the course of history Human Rights were often violated. That inspired the UN´s declaration of Human Rights. During the conference I got the opportunity to talk with people from other counties about Human Rights in their countries
I am German and I feel like Human Rights are being respected in my country. Fellow German Pauline feels the same way. Still she would like be more educated about Human Rights. “I know we are in a privileged position, because I don´t have money problems or feel like I am missing something really important”. But even though we might feel like Human Rights are being valued all over the country, others might feel different. After all, Germany was ranked 14th in the Global Peace-Index.

Hemşin’le ilgili iki tarihi belge
Araştırmacı Erol Ketenci’nin İstanbul’daki Başbakanlık Osmanlı Arşivi’nde bulduğu iki belge, Hemşin ve Hemşinli Ermenilerle ilgili çok önemli bilgiler içeriyor.
Belgelerden ilki, 1 Haziran 1913 tarihinde kaleme alınmış. Dönemin Osmanlı Genelkurmay’ı tarafından, İçişleri Bakanlığı’na gönderilen belgede, Hemşin bölgesinde yer alan ve isimleri tek tek verilen bazı köylerin halkının “Hemşin ismiyle bilinen Ermeni’den dönme Müslümanlar” olduğu belirtiliyor. 3 Haziran 1913 tarihli ikinci belge ise dönemin İçişleri Bakanlığı’ndan Trabzon Valiliği’ne gönderilen resmi bir yazı. Bu yazıda, ilk belgede isimleri tek tek verilen köylerin halkının “Aslen Ermeni iken din değiştirmiş” olduğu belirtiliyor. Her iki yazının ortak amacı ise Hemşinlilerin “saflık ve cahillikleri nedeniyle misyonerlerin aldatmalarına kapılmaları”na engel olunması. Read more

Land Shortages in North Caucasus Make Prospect of Regional Amalgamation Frightening, Uspanov Says
Paul Goble
Staunton, November 6 – Rapid population growth and rural overpopulation in many parts of the North Caucasus mean that any changes in republic borders or the amalgamation of them with predominantly Russian regions would inevitably lead to violent explosions, according to Beslan Uspanov, editor of the Kavkazskaya politikaportal.
In the course of an extensive interview with Lina Sarimova of Kazan’s RealnoVremya portal, the Caucasus expert discusses the ways in which shortages of land interact with republic borders in increasingly explosive ways (realnoevremya.ru/articles/119018-intervyu-s-beslanom-uspanovym-o-kbr-i-dagestane).
