http://www.unescap.org/wid/04widresources/05pubreport/

Extractions: This paper looks at recent macro-economic changes in the Asian and Pacific region, in terms of their effects on women in the region. The focus is on the processes typically associated with "globalization" and economic liberalization, which involve greater trade dependence, greater capital mobility and so on. The paper also highlights the observed effects on female employment, unemployment, general material conditions, and other social effects, especially in some of the countries that have experienced the most rapid economic changes over the past decade. This paper provides a review of the changing status of women in the Asian and Pacific region in the context of migration brought about through the extension of global influences in the region. It ends with a consideration of policy intervention in the region arguing that, for policies to be effective, they will need to be tailored to specific needs in specific areas. It is unlikely that any regionwide, blanket policies can truly address the very real needs of women in the region. Certain specific areas are identified for urgent attention, particularly those where the trafficking of women and the intensification of abuse may result owing to the current economic crisis in Asia.

Extractions: Acknowledgements This paper is most appropriately considered as a draft in progress. There are several gaps. Nonetheless we hope that these are compensated, at least in part , by the main purpose of the paper which is to raise awareness of this critical but neglected issue. The paper has been continually revised in light of the comments and insights provided by numerous individuals. It is not possible to name them all but particular thanks are owed to Ewan Armstrong, and to colleagues in the UNDP HIV and Development Programme who read and commented on various earlier versions of this paper. "I was not badly wounded, but I was hurt and could not walk properly. I still wonder, even today, if I have been given AIDS. I have never seen a doctor because I have no money." "It is as if we are now beginning a new life. Our past is so sad. We are not understood by society…We are not protected against anything. Widows are without families, without houses, without money. We become crazy. We aggravate people with our problems. We are the living dead.

In the run-up to today's meeting, the European Roma Rights Center (ERRC) submitted written comments to the Committee for considerations during its review. Today in Geneva, representatives of the ERRC, as well as the Budapest-based non-governmental organisations Hungarian Helsinki Committee and Roma Press Center are holding a joint briefing on Hungary's record on discrimination before Committee members in Geneva. The ERRC submission documents patterns of systematic racial discrimination against Roma in Hungary, as well as the failure of national and local authorities to protect Roma from violence and discrimination and to offer Romani victims of human rights abuse access to effective remedies. Discrimination pervades all aspects of life for Roma in Hungary, most egregiously in the fields of education, housing, and access to public services. On the occasion of the review, ERRC Executive Director Dimitrina Petrova said, "The UN CERD review could not be more timely. The international organ charged with assessing race discrimination issues will have the unique opportunity to set the agenda on Roma rights for Hungary's new government."

Extractions: Class Notes by David Williams Professor Williams made the following remarks at a dinner for the IU School of Law's Alumni Board this fall. The dinner and talk took place at the Eiteljorg Museum of American Indians and Western Art in Indianapolis. It is certainly true that individuals make important choices. To ignore the cultural context in which those choices occur, however, can lead to very unfortunate results. These days, most of us have exposure to more than one culture, or at least to a richly discordant culture, so we can choose between various cultural options. And that's one of the reasons that cultural diversity is such a good thing: Without it, we risk becoming cultural monoliths, endlessly repeating what we've been taught to repeat. All that might seem unbearably abstract, so to illustrate the point, let me tell you a personal story about cowboys and Indians and Indiana. I grew up in the southern Indiana gun culture. At one time or another, some of the men in my mother's family were sheriffs of Morgan County. And one of my cousins owned Lewis Wetzel's flintlock rifle. Wetzel was an early Indiana settler. His brother Jacob is buried in Morgan County. And after the Indians butchered some of his family, Wetzel became an Indian fighter. Now as you may know, people in southern Indiana like to tell stories, and I grew up on stories about this great ancestor. In the stock of this rifle were carved 21 notches, one for every Indian killed with that weapon. Gazing at this gun, night after night, I imagined great deeds of masculine derring-do, killing Indians. Indians were props in my games. At the time, these were the only thoughts that my culture enabled me to think.
