Introduction

Russia is a huge producer of oil and gas. It is the second largest producer and exporter of oil, and the largest producer and exporter of natural gas (Winfrey, 2010).

Boix (2004) argues that there are no examples of a successful transition to democracy in a country in which the contribution of the oil in the country’s export income is more than one third, and it seems to be ...

This past winter, the struggles for political autonomy in Ukraine garnered international attention as the once peaceful occupation in Kiev against former Ukranian president Viktor Yanukovych, turned into chaos with deadly clashes between troops and protestors.

In his article “Russia's Latest Land Grab: How Putin Won Crimea and Lost Ukraine” Jeffrey Mankoff states that Russia interrupts political uncertainty of former socialistic countries justifying it with protection of Russian national minorities on these territories. According to the author, in this way Kremlin is able to maintain influence on post-Soviet countries. After dissolution of Soviet Union many of these countries have directed their policy on European integration not willing to play under Kremlin rules. Russia was playing a restrictive role in each case, except the Baltic countries. During 2014 Russia has probably lost the strongest political ally – ...

Introduction

The situation related to Russia and Ukraine is constantly evolving, and in order to understand the current circumstances, it is essential to go back to the roots for a better understanding. The conflict between Russia and Ukraine began when the Ukrainian administration decided not to sign the European Union in 2013, which was a political and trade agreement that would bind Ukraine to European values and principles. The crises moved on very fast, leading to demonstrations and regime change. Ukraine has always had a history of political and cultural divide. The East always cooperated more toward Russia while the ...

Introduction

A few decades long conflict between Russia and Ukraine has reached its culminating point recently when Russia made a military invasion into the Republic of Crimea and the city of Sevastopol and forcefully annexed them to the Russian Federation in the early 2014. This event has raised a huge controversy in the world. Several world leaders, including NATO, have vehemently criticized and opposed to this illegal annexation of the Ukrainian territory, by which the Russian Federation completely violated the assurance it had extended to Ukraine in the 1994 Budapest Memorandum. The President of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin cited ...

I chose as the client the person that has received media attention from American as well as international media for the same issue. This is the president of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko, whose actions on the settlement of the Ukrainian crisis are in the center of attention of the world mass media. As examples of coverage I chose the American CNN and the Russian RT. The difference of the Ukrainian president's activity coverage is certainly huge. In the American media in general, and in CNN in particular, there is a neutral showing of information about Poroshenko with the focus on ...

In 2013 Russia acquired international recognition for beating back US threats of air strikes in Syria by convincing its Middle East ally to agree to terms to destroy its chemical weapons stockpile.

Abstract:

After the Russian takeover of the Ukraine- controlled Crimea on March 14, 2014, sanctions were immediately imposed by the Americans as an attempt to control Russia’s continuous attempts to destabilize Ukraine.

Belarus would be the non-democratic country I would recommend for the location of a spy thriller. Alexander Lukashenko rules Belarus as a ruthless dictator. Part of the USSR for years, Belarus declared its independence in 1990 when the USSR fell apart, and operates as an independent country. In truth, it is anything but independent. As with all dictatorships, the economy is a disaster. They are totally dependent on Russia for trade and have received over $3.5 billion in loans from Russia to prevent total disintegration. In reality, Lukashenko is a puppet of Vladimir Putin. With the reduction of the ...

Governance has always played an important role in the development of nations and societies. Who should hold power and how the societies should be governed? There are no set definitions of governance. The policies, laws, regulations that decide the kind of governance, as well as the cultural and ideological setting, decide the fundamental aspects of the governance policy. Ancient scriptures shed light on the different disciplines in governance in social societies, and how they impacted the communities and nations,

Introduction

Genocide was born out of the whims of political leaders whose powers met no restraints in the form of any formal convention. Political leaders gain motivation to commit genocide from their sheer dislike towards differences, often defined through nationality, religion and race, among others. Genocidal events have imbued a lasting negative impression throughout generations that have succeeded, especially on groups of people whose ancestors have gone through the plight of mass killings. With that kind of awareness in mind, contemporary politics has become more sensitive in limiting the powers of political leaders. Notions on human ...

Resources are, by far, the sinews or the driving force of the economy. For centuries, countries have waged wars over lucrative resources that would give them a competitive advantage, improve the economy, trade, and help amass national wealth. Following that logic, resources should normally benefit whatever country has them at its disposal. However, it so happens that countries rich in oil, gas, and other mineral resources struggle to maintain economic stability. Their abundance attracts separatist groups or foreign intruders and produces poor and corrupt administrations that use resources as a means of building their own welfare. The conjuncture now ...
