There are numerous drought indicators used by decision makers all around the globe which have been developed to fulfill specific needs. By far, risks associated with drought and related consequences have become a bold topic for scientists in which debates still taking place everywhere. No global drought indices could provide universally accepted results since almost all of these indices are based on observed data as key performance indicators. In this respect, researchers spend a lot of effort on this issue for a better understanding on the various indices which are proposed until now. It is crucial to get a better sense on how drought can develop and how it can be monitored. It is also important to understand that, recent global challenges like climate change also amplifies the obligation on continues effort toward developing better indicators and methods to monitor droughts. As climate patterns change or a seasonal shift occurs, predefined drought indicators become useless. In this review, the concepts of drought indices and indicators are revisited and evaluated. Pros and cons of frequently used indices are addressed and the major differences between them are bolded. It is concluded that each index is applicable to fulfill expectations of a specific drought type while pre-knowledge about each case is very crucial. However, there is a need to develop a composite drought index to integrate all relevant data and drought definitions, with respect to the dominant types of monthly droughts in time and space together with climate change scenarios.

LE CAMP D'INTERNEMENT T DE TROIS-RIVIÈRES L'escale involontaire d'un périple absurde Les soldats de l'Allemagne nazie marchent sur Paris le 14 juin 1940. Deux semaines plus tard, les Allemands débarquent à Québec. En moins de quinze jours, ils sont près de 1 000 à s'installer à Trois-Rivières. Voici l'improbable histoire de l'étonnante escale des internés allemands sur les terrains de l'Exposition entre juin et août 1940.

This study explores the possible scenarios of a regional conflict that may occur initially between Israel and Lebanon but may grow and extend to other regions involving more nations. It informs leaders of the consequences of such a conflict for all parties. By utilizing the scenarios matrix, it develops alternative scenarios according to the nature and combinations of four variables, including the Israel Defense Forces’ (I.D.F.) fighting power, Hezbollah’s response, the United States (U.S.) and allies’ intervention, Iran and the Axis of Resistance’s intervention. Analyzing the relationships of these variables also warns of wildcard scenarios that can impact the course of the conflict significantly and increase the risks as it may get out of control. If diplomatic efforts fail to de-escalate tensions between Israel and Lebanon’s Hezbollah, the potential consequences could be severe and multifaceted as identified by this inquiry. The study suggests that decision-makers and policymakers rethink the idea of pre-emptive wars as any miscalculations can impose severe humanitarian impacts and irrecoverable costs on nations involved directly or indirectly in the conflict.

Trabajos de Egiptología- Papers on Ancient Egypt 5/2 (2009)

Los relatos mitológicos, los textos literarios, los documentos legales y algunos estudios paleopatológicos demuestran que la violencia doméstica fue una constante de la vida en el Egipto antiguo. A pesar de que gozaba de igualdad legal con respecto al hombre y de que en los textos literarios siempre aparece como la generadora de la violencia doméstica, en realidad fue la mujer quien la sufrió con mayor asiduidad, como nos muestra la documentación existente. Domestic violence in the Ancient Egypt Mythological narratives, literary texts, legal documents, forensic testimonies and some paleopathological studies prove that gender violence was a constant in ancient Egyptian daily life. However, despite the fact that Egyptian women had legal equality with men and despite evidence in literary texts, where women always appears as the instigators of domestic gender violence, Egyptian women suffered that violence with more regularity than men, as proved by documentary evidence. Key words: women, gender violence, literature

Liberalism in Russia is one of the most complex, multifaced and, indeed, controversial phenomena in the history of political thought. Values and practices traditionally associated with Western liberalism—such as individual freedom, property rights, or the rule of law—have often emerged ambiguously in the Russian historical experience through different dimensions and combinations. Economic and political liberalism have often appeared disjointed, and liberal projects have been shaped by local circumstances, evolved in response to secular challenges and developed within often rapidly-changing institutional and international settings. This third volume of the Reset DOC “Russia Workshop” collects a selection of the Dimensions and Challenges of Russian Liberalism conference proceedings, providing a broad set of insights into the Russian liberal experience through a dialogue between past and present, and intellectual and empirical contextualization, involving historians, jurists, political scientists and theorists. The first part focuses on the Imperial period, analyzing the political philosophy and peculiarities of pre-revolutionary Russian liberalism, its relations with the rule of law (Pravovoe Gosudarstvo), and its institutionalization within the Constitutional Democratic Party (Kadets). The second part focuses on Soviet times, when liberal undercurrents emerged under the surface of the official Marxist-Leninist ideology. After Stalin’s death, the “thaw intelligentsia” of Soviet dissidents and human rights defenders represented a new liberal dimension in late Soviet history, while the reforms of Gorbachev’s “New Thinking” became a substitute for liberalism in the final decade of the USSR. The third part focuses on the “time of troubles” under the Yeltsin presidency, and assesses the impact of liberal values and ethics, the bureaucratic difficulties in adapting to change, and the paradoxes of liberal reforms during the transition to post-Soviet Russia. Despite Russian liberals having begun to draw lessons from previous failures, their project was severely challenged by the rise of Vladimir Putin. Hence, the fourth part focuses on the 2000s, when the liberal alternative in Russian politics confronted the ascendance of Putin, surviving in parts of Russian culture and in the mindset of technocrats and “system liberals”. Today, however, the Russian liberal project faces the limits of reform cycles of public administration, suffers from a lack of federalist attitude in politics and is externally challenged from an illiberal world order. All this asks us to consider: what is the likelihood of a “reboot” of Russian liberalism?
