Cote d'Ivoire. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001-05 In the October elections Laurent Gbagbo of the socialist Ivorian Popular Front (FPI) won the presidency amid a low turnout—Ouattara was banned from running and his supporters boycotted the vote—but the army halted the vote count and Gueï claimed victory. A new constitution approved in July, 2000, limited the presidency to citizens whose parents were both Ivorian citizens; the measure was regarded as an attempt to prevent the candidacy of Ouattara, who had returned to the country after Bédié’s ouster. Bédié retained the post after a 1995 election that was marred by violence and boycotted by the major opposition groups; former prime minister Alassane Ouattara was barred from running by changes in the election laws. www.bartleby.com /65/co/CotedIvo.html   (1764 words)

Untitled Document We would also like to remind your government that the government of Nagaland - the Nagaland Peoples Front (NPF) led Democratic Alliance of Nagaland (DAN) has also recommended the lifting of the “Disturbed Area Act,” which, we believe, is under review by your government at the moment. We regret to inform you that since the imposition of the armed forces (special powers) act, 1958 (AFSPA) on our people and our areas, many Nagas, both young and old, have had been mercilessly killed, harassed, tortured, and tortured to death, which is also an understatement of war ethics. It is with the best of our motivation that we would like to impress upon you and your people that so long as repressive or appeasement measures are continually inflicted on us, it will only deepen the mistrust and conflict between Indians and Nagas. www.nscnonline.org /webpage/letter_to_pm_by_nsf.htm   (1764 words)

India. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001 Although the constitution forbids the practice of “untouchability,” and legislation has been used to reserve quotas for former untouchables (and also for tribal peoples) in the legislatures, in education, and in the public services, the caste system continues to be influential. Agriculture (about 55% of the land is arable) makes up some 25% of the gross domestic product (GDP) and employs almost 70% of the Indian people.

Cote d'Ivoire: Government opponents are the target of systematic repression Moreover, several dozens of people belonging to the Bete ethnic group, of which Laurent Gbagbo is a member, were arrested as FPI sympathisers in the region of Gagnoa (250 km north west of Abidjan), and have been in detention since October 1995. Detaining people incommunicado for prolonged periods, which enables the use of torture and ill-treatment, is not a new phenomenon in the Côte d'Ivoire. At another trial, on 12 October 1995, nine people were convicted under the same Law, even when the prosecution had called for their release in the absence of any evidence of their having participated in a demonstration. www.amnestyusa.org /countries/cote_d_ivoire/document.do?id=4176B3B9E83BA65E80256900006932D9   (4570 words)

The broad party, the revolutionary party and the united front Electoral success is not the be-all and end-all of socialist politics, but it is a key component of a general strategy of winning the support of the majority of working people. It enables working class people to show their support, not just for this or that campaign, which is necessary, but for the general program of the party and the ideas of socialism. I was dealing with the united front as a tactic, with what John Rees himself calls "an agreement for action between reformists and revolutionaries, the definition of a united front". www.dsp.org.au /links/back/issue23/Smith_2.htm   (10885 words)

The broad party, the revolutionary party and the united front The need for a united front approach, even during the insurrection itself, stems from the fact that reformism and reformist organisation cannot be simply declared null and void because of the reactionary politics of reformist leaders. While conceding that united front campaigns may still be necessary over certain issues, he insists that "the historical role for Marxists today is to form new unified pluralist socialist parties which will act as a beacon to the working class and youth politicised by the anti-globalisation movement". This is why, for all the genuinely admirable electoral success that the SSP has achieved, its record of mobilising for Genoa and other anti-capitalist events, and against the war in Afghanistan and now the war drive on Iraq, is much weaker than that of the SWP and the united fronts it has initiated in Britain. www.dsp.org.au /links/back/issue23/Rees.htm   (10885 words)

(DV) Mann: The United Front to Defeat George W. Bush This is a broad united front including civil libertarians, activists and organizers facing increased scrutiny and repression, Blacks (the primary victims of all intensified police activities), all people of color, increasingly, Arab and Muslim peoples, and women fighting to protect the remnants of their constitutional and civil rights. Millions of people will be knocking on doors, participating in phone banks, holding house parties, and doing all the simultaneously active and passive things necessary to “get out the vote.” The already operative electoral united front to defeat Bush is composed of many forces in both alliance to and significant contradiction with each other. This broad electoral united front to defeat Bush is in need of an organized force inside of it to prioritize the fight for democratic rights, and against U.S. imperialism’s corporate and racist ruling circles. www.dissidentvoice.org /Sept04/Mann0908.htm   (10885 words)

As could be expected, this did not impact well on voters, who voted the Left Front back to power despite a state-wide anti-incumbency wave as a result of the earlier regimes failure to curb insurgency and rising unemployment. This was why Left Front leaders, including Chief Mnister Manik Sarkar had frantically pressed the Union Home Ministry and Election Commission for additional forces to ensure that the tribals could cast their votes. www.satp.org /satporgtp/sair/Archives/1_33.htm   (782 words)
