Schildzeichen/ Digmata

1.

In Russland sei das Unerwartete jederzeit möglich, dank der Helden, heißt es neben dem Schild, das einem rät, in Anbetracht solcher dollen Phantasien sich erst einmal auf der Krim zu erholen. Manche, wie der Vater der Wald- und Inselfee von der Krim, haben damals die Gelegenheit ergriffen und ihre private Landnahme betrieben. Sie haben dann aber auch das gemacht, was man mittels Ferienwohnungskauf, Erwerb einer 'Finca' macht, damit prinzipiell jeder früher oder später seinen infinity pool bekommt und sich die Bürger aller Länder an den Küstenstreifen in privaten Wohnananlagen gut isoliert vereinigen. Dann erzählen sie sich, dass sie einen Flecken erwischt haben, der bisher noch nicht so überlaufen und nicht so zerstört ist. Am Abend laufen dann ab und zu Nachrichten über Sportler, die sich nach dem Ende ihrer Karriere in solchen Häusern totsaufen und man sagt dazu huch.

2015 lief der Krieg mit der Ukraine bereits ein Jahr in der lauheißen Mischung, Russen und Ukrainer hatten nicht nur angefangen, sich zu schlachten, aber was tut man nicht alles für was noch mal genau, sie konnten auch schon Jahrestag feiern. Die Schildzeichen, die sogenannten digmata, verhäkelten fröhlich die zivile Sphäre und die Militärverwaltung, die Kunst und den Krieg. dafür sind sie da. Sie beschirmen society.

Das Portrait des weder fremden noch ausländischen, sondern durch und durch heimischen Agenten Vladimir Pushkin stammt von Sergey Bermeniev. Das ist ein bekannter Abstrichphotograph. Abstrichphotographen werden berühmt, indem sie Berühmtheiten photographieren, manchmal machen sie dazu sogar gute Photos, aber wenn die durchgehend oder anhaltend, auffällig gut sind, sind sie keine Abstrichphotographen mehr. In seinem Projekt Immersion sammelt Bemeniev amerikanische Stars aus dem Filmgeschäft, also dort her, woher die Stars kamen. Zwei Ausnahmen: Arnold Newman und Vladimir Pushkin tauchen unter den Stars auf. Das ist schon wieder witzig, was für Linien Bermeniev da zieht, ausgerechnet zu Arnold Newman und am anderen Ende zu Vladimir Pushkin. Sein Kopf ist keine Petrischale und worin er genau seinen Kopf getunkt hat, um von Immersion zu sprechen, das müsste ich mal überlegen.

Non-Self-Governing Territories: A Sacred Trust

In the UN Charter, a Non-Self-Governing Territory is defined as a Territory “whose people have not yet attained a full measure of self-government.”

In 1946, several UN Member States identified a number of Territories under their administration that were not self-governing and placed them on a UN list. Countries administering Non-Self-Governing Territories are called administering Powers. As a result of the decolonization process over the years, most of the Territories were removed from the list.

Chapter XI of the UN Charter - the Declaration regarding Non-Self-Governing Territories - provides that Member States administering Territories, which have not attained self-government recognize "that the interests of the inhabitants of these Territories are paramount" and accept as a "sacred trust" the obligation to promote their well-being.

Chapter IX urged the administering Powers concerned to take effective measures to safeguard and guarantee the inalienable rights of the peoples of the Non-Self-Governing Territories to their natural resources, including land, and to establish and maintain control over the future development of those resources, and requested the Administering Powers to take all necessary steps to protect the property rights of the peoples of those Territories.

Administering Powers, in addition to ensuring the political, economic, social and educational advancement of the peoples, undertake to assist them in developing self-government and democratic political institutions. Administering Powers have an obligation to transmit regularly to the Secretary-General information on the economic, social and educational conditions in the Territories under their administration.

Chapter IX also urged all States, directly and through their action in the specialized agencies and other organizations of the United Nations system, to provide moral and material assistance to the peoples of the Non-Self-Governing Territories.

History

In 1946, eight Member States - Australia, Belgium, Denmark, France, the Netherlands, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States - listed 72 Territories under their administration, which they considered to be non-self governing. Eight became independent before 1959.

Transmission of information by the administering Power was discontinued for 21 Non-Self-Governing Territories for various reasons. In some cases, such as Greenland, Alaska and Hawaii, the General Assembly accepted the cessation of information; in others, the decision was taken unilaterally by the administering Power.

In 1963, the Assembly approved a revised list of 64 Territories to which the 1960 Declaration on Decolonization applied. The list included the two remaining Trust Territories at that time (Nauru and the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands); the Non-Self-Governing Territories for which information was transmitted under Chapter XI of the Charter (article 73e), including the Territories administered by Spain; Namibia (then referred to as South West Africa); and those Non-Self-Governing Territories about which no information had been transmitted, but which the Assembly had deemed to be Non-Self-Governing - namely the Territories under Portuguese administration and Southern Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe). The list was further expanded in 1965 to include French Somaliland (now Djibouti) and Oman. The Comoro Islands were included in 1972 and New Caledonia in 1986.

From 1960 to 2002, 54 Territories attained self-government. At present, there are 17 Non-Self-Governing Territories remaining.

The UN General Assembly, by its resolution 54/91 of 6 December 1999, requested the annual observance of the Week of Solidarity with the Peoples of Non-Self-Governing Territories.

Decolonization

This educational video focuses on the process of decolonization and how the United Nations has contributed to development of the principle and practice of "self-determination��� for people living in non-self-governing territories.
