Afghanistan has a long history with many foreign invasions and occupations over the centuries due to its strategic location. It gained independence in 1919 but experienced periods of instability and civil war. The biggest current security problems are the Taliban insurgency and Pakistan's support for the Taliban due to India's influence in Afghanistan. Afghanistan still struggles with weak governance, poverty, and infrastructure development despite international assistance.
This document discusses the leadership of the Soviet Union from Leonid Brezhnev to Mikhail Gorbachev, including the Afghan war and Gorbachev's policies of perestroika and glasnost that led to reforms and the collapse of the Soviet Union. It mentions amateur photos from Afghanistan, beggars in the streets, political activity, free markets and the new youth under Gorbachev's leadership without censorship.
This document provides an overview of the history and geopolitics of Afghanistan. It discusses that Afghanistan is a landlocked country located in Central Asia with a population of 29 million. It outlines Afghanistan's history of influence from the US and USSR after 1947 and the civil war between mujahideen and the Afghan government backed by the Soviets from 1979-1989. It then summarizes the rise of the Taliban in the 1990s and their establishment of an Islamic Emirate, as well as their violent oppression of women. The document discusses key events and leaders in Afghanistan's conflicts up until recent US involvement after 9/11 and the anticipated effects of NATO withdrawal in 2014.

Leda och driva utveckling i skolan distansutbildning med högskolepoängGabriel Montgomery
Information om en distansutbildning för ledare i skolan. En samverkan med Högskolan Dalarna. Kursen går under ett läsår och ger 7,5 högskolepoäng. Den är anpassad för att kunna genomföras utan nersättning i arbetstid.
Ökad kvalitet och ökat engagemang med digitala lärverktygFramtidens Lärande
Lars Åkerblom, vice VD på Gleerups, och Marcus Anders, konceptutvecklare interaktiva böcker på Gleerups, Per-Ola Jacobsson, skolchef vid Karl-Oskarsskolorna. Presentation på DIUs BETT-resa 2013
På hemmaplan ytter introduktion inför SKUAarbeteMalinspplugg
En Power Point för att inspirera och motivera kring utvecklingsarbetet som väntar under läsåret i Hultsfreds kommun. Tar bl.a. kooperativt lärande som hjälp för att inspirera till elevaktiva övningar.

The document discusses several issues around developing an effective program for schools, including how to link the program to the local context and address challenges like lack of energy and technological skills. It emphasizes that prevention is better than cure and how to help young people avoid past mistakes through spiritual connection with nature. It also touches on challenges of moving between stages of development and ensuring different forms of communication are supported, not just technology, to allow for reflection and connectedness. Finally, it discusses maximizing the impact of collaborative platforms and managing cultural differences through understanding each other.
The document discusses notes from a Swedish university on June 20, 2011. It notes that the transition period after the USSR was extreme, with initial euphoria turning to nostalgia for the past. A key lesson is that change can happen quickly. The document questions whether younger generations will be interested in a sustainable intercultural entrepreneurship course, as social learning is slow and painful, and old models are deeply embedded in cultural memory.

Marcus Bussey: The three ages and the futures triangleLivia Norström
The document describes a workshop where participants were divided into groups representing the past, present, and future. They discussed defining aspects of each time period.
For the past, groups identified things like community, natural childbirth, and nature as a resource. For the present, they focused on issues like pressure, opportunity, technology, and human relations. And for the future, ideas included science working with nature, conscious relationships, creativity, and cosmic consciousness.
The exercise evoked deep emotions in participants and mixed feelings of grief and optimism that shaped their understanding.

Marcus Bussey: Alignment for sustainable future actionLivia Norström
The document discusses aligning individual passions with actions taken for sustainable social change. It suggests that individuals should act based on their passions, which will allow a shared vision to emerge organically over time rather than being rigidly predefined. Reflection and consciousness are important to develop alongside passion to prevent potential negative outcomes and ensure personal growth. The key aspects of the proposed alignment model are passion informing individual action, an emergent group vision, and ongoing reflection and consciousness.
This document discusses political developments and modernization across Russia and Central Asia, mentioning topics like political competition in Russia, the Chechen war, leaders like Vladimir Putin and Alexander Lukashenko, monument building by Niazov in Turkmenistan, cities in Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan, economic issues like currency exchange in Russia and street markets, and aspects of urban and rural life in places like Moscow, Tashkent, and rural Asia.

Gennady Perviy: The reasons for the collapse of the soviet unionLivia Norström
The document summarizes several reasons for the collapse of the Soviet Union in 3 stages:
1) Political, economic, and social problems weakened the regime from within and Cold War defeat weakened it externally. Nationalist movements emerged.
2) Attempts at economic reform failed to address political issues and nationalist conflicts increased.
3) As nationalist republics gained sovereignty, political changes could not save the USSR and it ultimately collapsed.
The document discusses political modernization in post-Soviet countries. It identifies three paths: 1) establishing western democracy like the Baltic states, 2) rolling back reforms and strengthening authoritarianism like Russia and Central Asia, and 3) unstable "democratic regimes" fluctuating between democracy and authoritarianism like Ukraine and Moldova. Political transformation in Central Asia faces challenges like emigration of ethnic Russians, traditional clan structures influencing politics, and a disparity between democratic laws and the real mechanisms of political processes which inhibit modernization.

“[...] Kursen har samtidigt varit mycket tidskrävande (framförallt för de som
verkligen vill lära sig) eftersom man i princip ges möjlighet att förbättra sina arbeten och
utvecklas vidare i det oändliga.”
“Informationen och kommunikationen med studenterna (och studenterna emellan) har
varit mycket effektiv och tydlig.”
