Food is a window into other cultures, and some would argue, a means of promoting diplomacy between nations. Food can connect people, and its power should not be underestimated.
Crimea has historically been part of various empires and was part of Ukraine from 1954 until its annexation by Russia in 2014. Russia had been promoting a "Russian world" idea in Crimea for years prior to annexation through various civil organizations and influencing authorities. In early 2014, Russian forces seized control of the Crimean parliament and blockaded Ukrainian military units in Crimea. A referendum was held and Crimea was annexed by Russia in March 2014, demonstrating a new era of hybrid warfare involving information and psychological operations.

Why Do States Build Nuclear Weapons? Three Models in Search of a Bomb by Scot...Syed Fakhar Ul Hassan
The article explains three (The Security Model, The Domestic Politics Model and The Norms Model) models to understand the actions and behavior of states in international political arena. The invention of nuclear weapons altered the world politics, practices, and global norms and set new ones.
The UN is an international organization founded in 1945 to replace the League of Nations and promote peace between nations. It aims to stop wars, provide a platform for dialogue, and carry out missions through subsidiary organizations. The UN headquarters is in New York and has six official languages. Member states fund the UN through contributions based on their national income. The UN is divided into bodies like the General Assembly, Security Council, and others that work on maintaining peace, developing relations, and solving global issues.
Afghanistan has a population of 32 million and has faced decades of conflict and instability. It has been conquered by various empires throughout history and gained independence from Britain in 1919. In the late 1970s, it experienced a civil war and Soviet invasion, which led to a rise in Taliban control and harboring of Al-Qaeda in the late 1990s. After the September 11, 2001 attacks on the US, which were planned by Al-Qaeda leaders Osama bin Laden and Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the US launched Operation Enduring Freedom to remove the Taliban regime for protecting Al-Qaeda and capture bin Laden. While the Taliban was removed from power, conflict has continued as the Taliban has regained strength and the country remains politically
The document summarizes key events in the 1980s that led to the collapse of the Soviet Union and the emergence of the United States as the sole superpower. It discusses President Reagan's confrontational stance towards the Soviet Union, the USSR's economic struggles and failed war in Afghanistan. Mikhail Gorbachev's reforms of perestroika and glasnost are described as unleashing forces that weakened the Soviet system. By 1991, revolutions in Eastern Europe and independence movements within the USSR led to its collapse, leaving the US as the world's dominant power.
The Warsaw Pact was a post-World War II military alliance between the Soviet Union and Eastern European communist countries that was established in 1955 in Warsaw, Poland. It required member states to defend each other in response to an attack and recognized Soviet dominance over Eastern Europe. The Pact integrated the armed forces of Eastern Bloc countries under unified Soviet command and provided a counterbalance to NATO during the Cold War.
The document discusses China's One Belt One Road initiative from Bangladesh's perspective. It defines the initiative as China's plan to connect over 60 countries through infrastructure and trade links along both land-based and maritime routes. It outlines the main routes, goals of promoting connectivity, trade, and relations among countries. It discusses opportunities for Bangladesh in infrastructure, trade, and private sector development, but also challenges in managing relations with India and having strong bargaining power. The conclusion emphasizes the need for Bangladesh to engage in strong diplomacy and extensive research around the initiative.
The document provides an overview of United Nations peacekeeping operations and Bangladesh's involvement. It begins by outlining the purpose of UN peacekeeping as maintaining international peace and security. It then discusses how Bangladesh first deployed peacekeepers in 1988 and has since contributed troops to over 30 operations in 25 countries. As of 2014, Bangladesh contributed the highest number of total peacekeeping personnel with over 8,700 deployed worldwide, though 88 Bangladeshi peacekeepers have been killed. Bangladesh's peacekeeping forces have been praised for their performance and professionalism.
Refugees around the world constitute millions of people. Migrant and refugee communities need helping hand from your community to prevent and resolve conflicts, and to help achieve security and peace.
The goal of Pick-Up Sticks is to remove sticks from a pile one at a time without disturbing the other sticks. Players take turns carefully picking up a single stick until all sticks have been removed. If a stick is moved in the process, the player's turn ends. The last player with sticks left wins.
This document summarizes the history of conflict in Afghanistan and Pakistan since the US invasion in 2001 following 9/11. It outlines the key players in the Afghan government and anti-government forces like the Taliban. It also discusses Pakistan's role and how the war has spilled over the border. The international response and goals of allies like the US and NATO are examined.
The United Nations (UN) is an international organization with 193 member states. It was established in 1945 to replace the League of Nations and maintain peace and security between countries. The UN aims to promote cooperation in areas like international law, human rights, economic development, and social progress. It has six main organs that carry out its functions: the General Assembly, Security Council, Economic and Social Council, International Court of Justice, Secretariat, and Trusteeship Council (now suspended). The UN works to prevent wars, protect human rights, and provide humanitarian aid worldwide.
This document compares the theories of neorealism and neoliberalism in international relations. It defines neorealism as focusing on the structure of the international system and how it shapes outcomes, while neoliberalism believes states pursue absolute gains rather than relative gains over other states. The document outlines some key similarities and differences between the two theories, such as their views on international cooperation and priorities of states. It concludes that while the theories have differences in focus, they share underlying assumptions about the international system and nation states.
The document provides an overview of Pakistan-US relations from 1947 to 2020 across 11 sections. Some key points:
- Relations began positively in 1947 but cooled during the Cold War as Pakistan aligned more with China. The US supported Pakistan against the Soviet Union from the 1980s.
- Tensions emerged in the 1990s as the US imposed sanctions over Pakistan's nuclear program. Relations oscillated as different governments came in and out of power in both countries.
- After 9/11, Pakistan became a key US ally in the War on Terror but trust eroded as the US grew skeptical of Pakistan's role. Relations remain complex under recent administrations.
CAMBRIDGE A2 HISTORY: TRUMAN DOCTRINE 1947. Content: assistance to democratic nations, Truman doctrine, supporting Greece, aid for Greece and Turkey, strategic importance, against Soviet totalitarianism.
This document provides an abstract for a study on developing a theory of public diplomacy. It aims to test different explanations for why states practice public diplomacy, including rational, idealistic, and social trend motivations, using a novel quantitative method and statistical analysis. The study finds that rational explanations related to factors like wealth and prestige best explain public diplomacy activities. However, it also finds evidence that a social trend or norm is emerging as more states participate in public diplomacy beyond rational calculations. Idealistic motivations are found to have limited explanatory power despite concepts of "credible diplomacy." The document outlines the theoretical background and emergence of public diplomacy as a field of study.
The document provides background information and analysis of the Six Day War between Israel and neighboring Arab states. It describes the historical context leading up to the war, including the 1947 UN partition of Palestine and previous Arab-Israeli conflicts. Key events and decisions in 1967 that precipitated the war are outlined, such as military deployments, incidents along the Israel-Jordan border, and Egyptian orders that closed Israel's port of Eilat. The document also profiles important stakeholders and discusses the course of the war from June 5-10, when Israel gained control of the Sinai Peninsula, Gaza Strip, West Bank, and Golan Heights. Casualty figures for both sides are presented.
The UN began reforms in 2000 to strengthen its capacity for peacekeeping operations in response to increasing demands and complex challenges. Peacekeeping faced deploying large, expensive, and complex operations; transitioning stable operations; and building local capacity for long-term peace. The Secretary-General established an independent panel in 2014 to assess and advise on evolving needs and improving UN peace operations, including changing conflict nature, mandates, partnerships, and protection of civilians.
Central Asia is an important geopolitical region for several reasons:
1) It is rich in natural resources like natural gas and located along key trade routes like the Silk Road, making it strategically important.
2) Major powers like the US, Russia, China, and European states have economic and security interests in the region due to its resources and location bordering Afghanistan and Pakistan.
3) Central Asia experienced growing attention after the 9/11 attacks as countries sought to curb terrorist groups operating in the region and secure strategic transportation routes for trade and energy pipelines.

Lecture Overview
Increasing Your Cultural Competency
In this interactive media application, you will be exposed to five different
cultural groups and their perceptions regarding health and illness. Each is
very unique. As you go through each one, you will be able to connect some of
the theories and worldview perceptions outlined in your readings to each
population. Increasing your cultural competence is critical to understanding
how different communities experience public health.
What is Cultural Competency?
The term cultural competence can loosely be defined as a public health
practitioner’s knowledge, awareness, and practice with other individuals and
populations with diverse cultural backgrounds. The assessment at the end of
the media application is a good place to begin evaluating your cultural
competency as a current or future health professional.
Steps to Becoming More Cultural Competent
The first step to becoming culturally competent is realizing that you bring
your own beliefs and worldview to your profession. Acknowledging this will
help you minimize the interference that these beliefs may have as you work
with others (i.e. patients, clients, colleagues, community, and public). The
most important steps you can take as public health professionals to be coming
more cultural competent is to listen, have patience, and practice humility
when you have limited knowledge regarding something or when you have
done something wrong.

Food Forward Trends Report 2015 - Asia Pacificwsaustralia
The document summarizes key findings from the Weber Shandwick Asia Pacific Food Forward Trends Report II, which examined consumer sentiment and food culture trends across Australia, China, South Korea, and Singapore. Four main trends emerged: 1) the preference gap between eating at home versus away is narrowing; 2) social media is profoundly influencing culinary knowledge and recipe inspiration; 3) online shopping for food is growing steadily, especially in China and South Korea; and 4) celebrity endorsements face increasing scrutiny. Social media was found to be a primary driver of new recipe discovery and food experience sharing across the region.
The document summarizes key findings from the Weber Shandwick Asia Pacific Food Forward Trends Report II, which examined consumer sentiment and food culture trends across Australia, China, South Korea, and Singapore. Four main trends emerged: 1) the preference gap between eating at home versus away is narrowing; 2) social media is profoundly influencing food knowledge, inspiration, and habits; 3) online grocery shopping is growing slowly but steadily, though supermarkets remain popular; and 4) celebrity endorsements face increasing scrutiny. Social media was found to be a primary source for recipe finding and inspiration for food experiences shared online. Online grocery purchasing was most common in China and South Korea, while Australians preferred supermarkets.
The locavore movement promoting locally grown food has expanded to focus more broadly on local food culture and building community. This "socialvore" trend combines concerns for health, the environment, and social issues with making local, sustainable food accessible to all communities. Various initiatives illustrate this approach, such as restaurants serving local, affordable fast food or cooking classes held in neighborhoods. The socialvore movement aims to democratize the food movement and address diverse community needs through education, engagement, and local pride.
The locavore movement aims to consume only locally grown foods, but close examination reveals issues. While supporting local farmers and reducing
food miles benefits the environment and economy, transportation accounts for a small portion of food's carbon footprint. Additionally, nutrition
arguments are not scientifically supported, as transportation does not significantly impact nutrients. The locavore lifestyle is not necessary to be
healthy but can connect consumers to community farmers and encourage healthier choices if its limitations are acknowledged.
While we cannot stop the planet's evolution, we have a moral duty to suggest ways to interact with it responsibly. The document discusses how sustainability has become an obligatory approach and how the Barilla Center for Food & Nutrition was founded to collect knowledge on food/nutrition issues and propose solutions to challenges regarding these issues for current and future generations.
Ethnographic Comparison of Two Urban FarmsAnais Dodson
This document summarizes an ethnographic study comparing two urban farms in Oakland, California. The study examined the roles and community impacts of Acta Non Verba, a youth education farm, and People's Grocery, which aims to improve health and the local economy. Key findings include that the farms empower their communities through education, health, diet, and a shared public space. However, their participants value different aspects, with most at People's Grocery prioritizing community and most at Acta Non Verba prioritizing fresh produce. Overall, the farms provide a way for community members to connect with their culture and each other.
The document discusses food culture in the Mexican culture. It explains that food is an important part of cultural identity, as each culture is associated with certain foods. Growing up in a Mexican family, the author was accustomed to eating foods like salsa and spicy peppers with most meals. Over time, the author grew to appreciate these strong flavors that were common in their city due to the Hispanic population. The author can now not imagine meals without the spicy and flavorful components of Mexican cuisine.
This document discusses the rise of vegetarianism as a trend in the United States. It traces the origins and history of vegetarianism from early humans to its growing popularity today. The document also examines how the vegetarian trend is impacting businesses, providing the example of Veggie Grill which has seen increased sales serving vegetarian options to non-vegetarians. The chef at Rush Creek Golf Course discusses how adding a vegetarian section increased their lunch business. The document argues the vegetarian trend will continue growing and more restaurants should adapt by expanding their vegetarian offerings.
An Overview Of The State Of Native American Health Challenges And OpportunitiesMary Calkins
The document provides an overview of the challenges facing Native American populations, particularly related to health issues. It notes that Native Americans face high rates of poverty, lower educational attainment, and higher unemployment than national averages. These socioeconomic factors contribute significantly to poor health outcomes, including high rates of obesity and diabetes. While issues are serious, the document emphasizes that consumption patterns are modifiable and interventions focused on improving nutrition and access to healthy foods could help address health problems.
This thesis examines hierarchies of culinary prestige at Expo Milano 2015 and in the Michelin Guide. Ethnographic fieldwork at Expo revealed advantages that supported Western European cuisines while limiting representation from developing nations. Statistical analysis of Michelin data from NYC explored relationships between culinary recognition, economic factors, and demographics but failed to produce significant results.
