Oct 21, 2004 Angola: From War to Social Justice?
"Negative peace (cessation of hostilities) is far preferable to no
peace at all but it ... leaves deficits and injustices in the
social, political and economic structures, institutions and
cultures largely unresolved. It fails to promote political
negotiation and democratic processes." - Conciliation Resources
briefing paper
May 4, 2004 Angola: Humanitarian Update
Two years after the end to war in Angola, a UN analysis reports,
almost all the 3.8 million internally displaced people have
returned home. Nevertheless, "the transition [from war to recovery]
seems to be on hold," says the report, faulting both donors and the
Angolan government for failure to get resources to local
communities.
Jan 16, 2004 Angola: Oil and Accountability
A new report by Human Rights Watch on Angola is the most
detailed public examination to date of discrepancies in
accounting for revenue from oil, the product
that accounts for the lion's share of the country's exports
and government budget. Although Angolan government officials
complained about the unfair focus on their country, attributing
the problems primarily to insufficiencies
in financial systems, the issues raised go to
the heart of questions about political accountability not only
in Angola, but also around the world.
