The main purpose of the article is to present the key elements of Chinese policy in Xinjiang. This western province represents 1/6 of China’s landmass and plays a significant role in Chinese security and economic policy. This study tries to show the complexity of challenges that Chinese have to face in their attitude to Xinjiang. For years, Xinjiang was known as a primary front in Chinese war on terrorism. That is why, a question whether the government uses the threat of terrorism as an excuse to violate minority rights is raised. Recently, China has been implementing a new policy, which is more concerned on economic development and improvement of living standards and could be a first step in a long way to stabilize the situation in the province.

This chapter is divided into four sections. The first section seeks to provide a brief overview of the history of legal reforms in China, and underscore the changing attitude of the government to human rights. The second section identifies the groups considered minorities or ‘minority nationalities’ in China. The third section seeks to extrapolate principles of minority rights in Chinese law, drawing on the Chinese Constitution, the Law of the People's Republic of China on Regional National Autonomy, and from authoritative commentaries on the same. This is followed by various sub-sections focusing on policy and legislation over specific issues pertaining to minorities in China, such as education, religion, political participation, and economic development. The final section analyzes the remedies available and the challenges in making these effective.


Subject Short- and longer-term prospects for recovery in Russia. Significance In April, Russia's economic development minister, Alexey Ulyukaev, predicted that Russia's recession was about to end. The Central Bank of Russia (CBR), previously more sceptical, came to the same view in late May. Policymakers are focusing their attention on the longer-term issue of whether Russia can achieve more than very sluggish growth over the next few years. Impacts The prolonged dip in living standards will persist, although protests will not be serious enough to destabilise the government. The economic development ministry has a plan to increase funds available for investment, in part by prolonging caps on wages and pensions. Such a move would increase the risk of unrest and dampen consumer demand.

The contemporary Indian scene is exciting. Of immediate relevance to the present article are two basic aspects of the evolving situation in India. First is the fact that there is in process, for anyone to see, a deliberate effort to raise living standards. The government of independent India articulated a framework for economic expansion almost a decade ago, at about the time that President Truman dramatically injected the problems of economic development in the arena of international affairs. Since then India has been proceeding with development activity more or less within this framework.

A non-independent regulatory structure in the financial services sector had already conduced poor economic condition for some countries in the 1990s. Learned from that experience, the existence of OJK in Indonesia must be supported by the existence of an independent regulatory structure so that the purpose of OJK being formed in the first place can be materialized. The existence of the independent regulatory structure, can be measured by OJK’s independence in terms of regulation, supervision, institutional, and independence in terms of financing. In the context of OJK in Indonesia, the independent regulatory structure, is not intended to make OJK as a catalyst for economic development or a referee for a fair play. OJK’s independence must be played to balance the interests of the government, consumer, and financial services industry so that the direction of economic policy can go hand in hand. Though not in the perfect shape yet, the regulation of OJK has already adopted all aspects from that independent regulatory structure. It was said not in the perfect shape yet, because a harmonization is still needed on a number of laws and regulations relating, and establishment of implementing regulations at the technical level of operational. With these, OJK is expected to be more objective and also can run its authority adequately, transparently, and accountably. Furthermore, OJK is expected to have a sufficient legal authority to conduct an investigation into the financial services issues. Keywords: Regulatory structure, independence, OJK


Significance The new parliament could provide an opportunity for a review of Algeria’s economic policy options. The previous legislature was constrained by the fact that it had been elected during the time of former President Abdelaziz Bouteflika (in office 1999-2019), which tainted many of its leading members by association. Impacts Islamists are likely to make gains in the election, mainly because the two main establishment parties are discredited and in disarray. Extra spending on healthcare and settling arrears to public agencies will not stem protests against disenfranchisement and living standards. The election could provide an opportunity for the government to bring forward detailed proposals for reviving the car assembly industry.

ABSTRACTDifferent strategies have been used by the Rwandan government to promote capitalist accumulation. In some sectors, party and military owned enterprises are predominant. In others, the government has chosen to embrace market-led reforms. Ultimately, the vulnerability experienced by ruling elites contributes to the choice of how capital accumulation is promoted in different sectors. Ruling elites use party and military enterprises to centralise rents and establish control over the direction of economic policy. However, centralising rents is a political choice and excludes individuals from developing access to rents. The pyrethrum sector shows that the use of such groups has resulted in unequal outcomes despite increases in productivity. Reduced international prices have stunted further productivity. Conversely, the mining sector shows evidence of the pursuit of market-led reforms. These reforms have been accompanied by rapid growth in domestic production and exports. Foreign investment was necessary in order to bring capital and expertise to the sector. However, the government has struggled to retain the capacity to enforce legislation and discipline foreign investors in line with national priorities. Both sectors show evidence that ruling elites have been prompted by vulnerability to commit to economic development. Constraints that have accompanied strategies pursued in these sectors have forced the government to work ‘reactively’ to achieve strategic targets.

In the past decade or so there have been several critical revisions of the long-accepted view of the important role of the state in Japan's economic development and programme of modernization generally. Professor Harry Oshima has attempted to demolish the argument that the Meiji governments' policies were at all economically beneficial. On the contrary, he has said, those policies retarded growth, particularly through their neglect of agriculture. Professor Hugh Patrick has cautioned us against giving the Meiji governments too much credit for the development of the banking system. Private enterprise, he has insisted, was also important. Most recently, Professor Kozo Yamamura has delivered yet another broadside against what he considers the myths of Japanese economic history. This time he criticizes the view that the government, by intervening and pioneering model plants, played a significant role in Meiji Japan's industrial dcvelopment.
