Low fertility rates, high death rates, and emigration are the major factors that cause negative population growth in the Eastern European areas. HIV/AIDS has slowed the population growth in Southern Africa. Globally, population growth peaked in 1962, at the growth rate of 2.2%. By 2009 the 1.1% population growth rate had returned to a little less than the average since 1350 which was 1.8%. The Bubonic Plague, Great Famine and Hundred Years War in 1350 started a continuous population growth rate. 

Gender inequality is the measured difference in treatment between men and women. Generally, gender inequality refers to women being treated in a way that causes reduced financial gain, lower pay, positions with less status, more difficult to advance in employment, and sexual harassment.

When measuring gender inequality, the population growth rates amoung men and women may sometimes blurr reality. For example, the United States of America is now at war, which increases the death rate. As a result, more women are in higher positions. It then appears as though gender inequality has improved, and has not.

Population growth is measures by the number of people born minus the number of people that die plus the number of immigrants minus the number of people who move away (emigrants). (P=Population, B=Births, D=Deaths, I= Immigrants, and E=Emigrants).

ΔP=B-D+I-M

Annual Growth Rate

1989                    88.0 million

2003                    73.9 million

2006                    75.2 million

2009                    74.6 million

Projected 2050      41 million

War crimes, ethnic cleansing, and genocide are considered human rights violations or humanitarian aid violations and are major factors causing the projected decreases in population growth. Most countries experiencing a decrease in population growth, gender inequality is openly practiced. Women and children are still seen as property, there are little or no victim protection laws and living conditions are substandard.

In the Caribbean, sex tourism, the mistreatment of girls, women, boys and young men for prostitution increases the HIV/AIDS rates and decreases the population growth rates. These issues are also based on gender inequality. The women caring for the boys and young men are without a husband. Terrorism and para-terrorism also contribute to the population growth rate issues, an increase in terrorist activity in central America is being reported. The Genocide that affected Rwanda is now using medical means, government- backed sterilization. Some of the interviews and articles sound like women are used for reproduction without consent, a form of gender inequality.

TMSC International® Management & Leadership: Mounting Violence and the Taliban: Are We Getting an Accurate Picture?

Title endorsed in part by: Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting by Tres Mali Scott

No, and one reason the Taliban is winning in the public’s eye is because no one wants to tell what it really means to have a “Civilian Shield”. I am a missionary and understand that these groups are very specific in using religion as a part of their name. The Holy Bible tells about concepts that apply to modern day situations:

Those that say they are…but are not…

Whatever it may be. Some of these individuals use Satanism, Witchcraft, and Sorcery’s to attack people in a manner that is difficult to understand.

The word Taliban is a loan word from Arabic and is Pashtu meaning “students”. The Taliban or Taleban is a predominately Pashtun, fundamentalist, religious, pro-Wahhaabi, Sunni, Islamist, political movement, that governed Afghanistan from 1996-2001. The Taliban is fighting a guerrilla war against the Afghanistan government, Pakistan, allied NATO (Operation Enduring Freedom), and NATO-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF). Afghanistan and Pakistan are bordering countries and the Taliban operate out of both.

Human Rights Watch’s (2008) report on “Troops in Contact” Airstrikes and civilian death in Afghanistan, section VII Recommendations: To Taliban, Al-Qaeda, and other opposition armed groups are:

1. Cease using civilians as shields
2. Take all feasible precautions to protect civilians from the effects of attack…
3. Stop feigning civilian status during attacks…
4. Affirm commitments to follow international humanitarian law…

Amnesty International’s (2009)  report on Getting Away With Murder? The Impunity of International Forces in Afghanistan, states that the

International Military Forces in Afghanistan include:

1. Operation Enduring Freedom and
2. The NATO-led UN mandated International Security Assistance Force (ISAF)

There are other agencies present as well including United Nations Convention Against Torture and Afghanistan Independent Human Rights Commission…

TMSC International® Management & Leadership: What is Crisis Reporting?

Writer Tres Mali Scott on TMSC Consulting SVCS, LLC Management & Leadership Division

This topic is endorsed in part by the Writings of African-Americans and the International Library of Paranormal Psychology  by Tres Mali Scott

A crisis, according to the American Heritage Dictionary is a crucial or decisive point or situation, a turning point, an ustable condition, as in political, social, or economic affairs, involving and impending abrupt or decisive change. An emergency is a serious situation or occurrence that happens unexpectedly and demands immediate action, this implies that some crisis are forseen.

As an American, many freedoms are taken for granted. Living in a democracy is very different from socialist, communist, and dictators. In a democracy, individual citizens input, hold rallies, protest, and cause social action.

Individual citizens vote on who will represent them and America has the least amount of intra-country terrorism. Terrorism is violence and intimidation for political gain.

Many other countries terrorize for political gain. The topics of crisis reporting are not or under reported situations, issues, and incidents that occur throughout the world.

Crisis reporting is a part of the independent and free press. Most crisis reporters are freelance, individual or corporate philanthropist that become knowledgeable about international issues and report as accurately as possible about the situations occurring.

The United States of America passed laws for freedom of speech and freedom of the press, most of the other countries do not have these freedoms. There are also many international organizations that monitor, provide assistance, and report as accurately as possible international issues.

TMSC International® Management & Leadership: India’s Foreseeable Future and Resolution of These Conflicts

This Title is endorsed in part by: Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting by Tres Mali Scott

When reading about and researching India, the traffic, language, social, and economic problems sound like Mexico. The  U. S. Department of  State on Travel to India’s report says travel by road in India is dangerous and reckless driving without consideration for the rules of the road. Like Mexico, because of tribes and rural living there are huge variations in language, social and economic conditions, as noted by the International Herald Tribune about India.

When I worked with “at risk” youth, another employee was from India, he told me that in India he was a Medical Doctor and his education did not have reciprocity with U.S. Medical School, Boards, or Licensure. Mr. Thomas also informed me that in order to obtain higher education in India you had to be able to speak English. India’s National literacy average is 65 percent.

The greatest points of conflict in India are political, military, and terrorist. This version on the topic looks at Religious and Cultural Terrorism. The U.S. Department of State on Travel specifically includes violence against Christians, called Anti-Christian violence, that occurs in Orissa, Gujarat, Kerala, and Karnataka, India, against Indian and American Missionaries and Social Workers. Conversion of Hindus is illegal in some states due to the violent clashes it caused. Fourteen terror attacks have occurred in major cities that have killed over 600 people between Oct. 2005 and Nov. 2008.

Political officials and laws are determined by voting, India is the world’s largest democracy (12/5/2010 correction [multi-party system that can be mistaken for a democracy. Due to the two Communist parties, this is not a democracy]), and has a very diverse and second most populous, population. Communicating with Maoist leaders would increase understanding of the direction the political voting, coalitions, and alliances are going toward, the Maoist are becoming a political factor.

The world should care about all countries when the environment is involved. The consequences on the world is great. About 20 years ago, part of the rain forest was cut down, this caused an increase in global warmer. Many specials on TV have discussed the OZONE, global warming, and pollution. On Earth, we use photosynthesis to breathe. If we do not have enough plant life, we will die. The plants can live in the environment without us, but we can not live without the plants.

The deforestation in Zimbabwe means reduced plant life, reduced natural resources, and at the National Parks reduced jobs. Exploiting the natural resources has also been reported as environmental problem in Zimbabwe. The series about environmental consequences of human conflict is important, it brings attention to the civil wars of other countries, like Mozambique and the genocide in Rwanda. These issues may require International Governmental Aid, tax dollars!

All I ever learned in science class 101 tells me that the ecosystem is balanced. The human conflict can cause premature death of animals and plant life that disturbs this balance.

In conclusion, the civil war in Mozambique, the deforestation in Zimbabwe, and the human catastrophe in Rwanda may require global financial assistance and research to look at the effects on the global environment.

Rwanda’s population is 18 million and in 2004, as a result of the past genocide, Rwanda passed new legislation that forbids political parties from making any reference to ethnic, religious, regional, or clan differences in their names or operations.

Rwanda is known for some of the worst violence o the 20th century, following independence in 1962, two countries emerging that had been Rwanda- Urundi or Belgian East Africa. During this violence Hutu seized power. The people of Rwanda are made up od Hutu, Tutsi, & Twa

Update March 5, 2011

BBC NEWS AFRICA 3 February 2011,  states that Rwanda is in a vasectomy drive to stem the population growth. Rwanda’s government has said it wants to encourage men to have vasectomies in a bid to stem the small landloced country’s growing population and been encouraging male circumcision since 2008,  as the UN World Health Organization says it reduces the risk of heterosexual HIV infection (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-12354464).

On Feburary 25, 2008 TMSC International® Management & Leadership published an article, “Mozambique, Zimbabwe, and Rwanda-Civil War, Deforestation, and Genocide”.The article was first published by The Pulitzer Center through Helium.com Where Knowldege Rules, this article states:

On Earth, we use photosynthesis to breathe. If we do not have enough plant life, we will die. The plants can live in the environment without us, but we can not live without the plants. The deforestation in Zimbabwe means reduced plant life, reduced natural resources, and at the National Parks reduced jobs.

Craig Simons writes, “As China Grows Rich, Rainforests Fall” on January 2, 2012:

“…logs…rising demands has come at a steep environmental cost…China’s shoppers have taken up the slack driving unsustainable logging and leading to the rapid loss of some of the world’s last stands of pristine rainforests”.

Again, “The plants can live in the environment without us, but we can not live without plants.”

TMSC International® Management & Leadership: Ethiopia: Is The Prime Minister’s “Work Progressing?”

Title emdorsed in part by Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting by Tres Mali Scott

The reports on Prime Minister Meles Zenawi’s comment that “human rights are a work in progress”, the removal of Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch, as well as the Republican-controlled House of Representatives decision not to support limited assistance to Ethiopia, leads me to say that the United States Government should limit Ethiopia’s input into US Affairs until their “Human Rights” record improves.

The Prime Misinster Meles Zenawi has commented on improving the offenses. The United States of America State Department has noted Ethiopia’s offenses. The rebels that are attacking the oil cargoes, cause a concern. Some of the offenses are as a result of these “rebel forces”. What is the world standard? And how close is Ethiopia to meeting this standard?

The removal of Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch will make it difficult to note improvements. Prime Minister Meles Zenawi will have a problem proving that the “work in progress” is really progressing. A jailed known Islamic Militant Terrorist reported that the Ethiopian Prison was nice. How does a terrorist live and what types of jail systems has he been in. Other countries are known for human rights offenses and are not working to improve the conditions.
