ABSTRAK
Kemiskinan dan keterbelakangan telah menjadi bagian yang tidak terpisahkan dari kelompok negara-negara Afrika, Karibia, dan Pasifik (ACP, Segala bantuan dan keistimewaan yang diberikan UE sejak tahun 1975 -bahkan beberapa negara lebih lama lagi- tidak mampu secara signifikan melepaskan diri dari lingkaran keterpurukan. Alih-¬alih mengalami kemajuan pesat, Negara-negara ACP terutama di Sub Sahara Afrika, terus-menerus didera pertikaian, politik, etnis, dan agama yang tidak berkesudahan. Tahun 2000, Konvensi Lome antara ACP-UE yang telah empat kali diperbaharui berakhir. Negosiasi baru yang telah dimulai sejak 1998 akhirnya menyepakati Perjanjian Cotonou yang berlaku efektif 1 April 2003. Perjanjian Cotonou merupakan babak baru hubungan ACP-UE karena di dalamnya beberapa hal baru diperkenalkan dan beberapa hal yang menjadi chi Konvensi Lorne seperti Stabex dan Sysmin dihapuskan. Tesis ini bermaksud melihat dimensi-dimensi baru dalam Perjanjian Cotonou. Setelah menganalisa dapat disimpulkan bahwa Perjanjian Cotonou tidak lebih menguntungkan dibandingkan dengan Konvensi Lorne. ACP menerima Perjanjian Cotonou karena posisi tawarnya lemah terhadap UE. ACP masih mengharapkan bantuan teknis dan finansial dari UE sedangkan UE dengan perkembangan internal dan eksternal melihat posisi ACP tidak lagi sepenting sebelumnya. Tujuan UE terhadap ACP sekarang lebih eksplisit yaitu secepatnya mengintegrasikan ACP ke dalam perdagangan dunia yang bagi ACP tentu tidak mudah dan akan banyak mengorbankan kepentingan nasionalnya.

The Caribbean before Columbus is a new synthesis of the regions insular history on multiple scales: temporal, spatial, local, regional, environmental, social, and political. It combines the results of the authors 55 years of archaeological research with that of their colleagues. For the first time the complete histories of the major islands and island groups are elucidated, and new insights are gained through inter-island comparisons. The concepts of series and ages provide structure, but historical names, such as Taíno and Lucayan, are avoided. The authors challenge the conventional wisdom concerning island colonization, societal organization, interaction and transculturation, and other basic elements of cultural development and change. The emphasis is on elements that unite the Bahamas, Lesser Antilles, and Greater Antilles as a culture area, and also on their divergent pathways. Colonization is presented as a multifaceted wave-like process. Continuing ties to the surrounding mainland are highlighted. Interactions between residents and new colonists are recognized. New solutions are offered to the Huecoid problem, the Carib problem, the Taíno problem, and the evolution of social complexity, especially in Puerto Rico. These solutions required a rethinking of social organization and its expression on the landscape.

This new book is fully Marxist and is composed of the third generation of scholars in our field who are freed from the history of how the field began, but who have done good field work with lots of data behind them. They are active internationally. The first edition of this book was limited to North America. This book includes archaeology from the North Atlantic, Scandinavia, Ireland, West Africa, the Caribbean, and Latin America. Historical archaeology has broadened out and this volume is intended to report how that expansion shows the impact of capitalism’s processes.

In the popular imagination, Caribbean islands represent tropical paradise. This image underlies the efforts of many environmentalists to protect Caribbean coral reefs, mangroves, and rainforests. Much less attention is given to environmental conditions in urban areas, where the islands poorer citizens suffer from exposure to garbage, untreated sewage, and air pollution. Concrete Jungles explores why these issues tend to be ignored, demonstrating how mainstream environmentalism reflects and reproduces class and race inequalities. Based on over a decade of research in Kingston, Jamaica, and Willemstad, Curaçao, the book contrasts the uptown environmentalism of largely middle-class professionals with the downtown environmentalism of inner-city residents. It combines an original and sophisticated theoretical discussion of the politics of difference with rich ethnographic detail, including vivid depictions of Caribbean ghettos and elite enclaves. The book presents a novel approach to environmental injustice, combining a political economy perspective with attention to the cultural politics that naturalize socio-ecological inequalities. One of the first works to extend environmental anthropological theory to explicitly include the study of cities, the book shows how divergent forms of environmentalism articulate class, race, and urban space. Forms of environmentalism that implicitly or explicitly understand cities as opposed to nature, and poor people as a threat to environmental purity, contribute to urban naturalisms that naturalize social hierarchies and the unequal distribution of environmental problems.

Skripsi ini membahas mengenai pengaturan terhadap laut tertutup dan laut semi tertutup dalam hukum laut. Penelitian dalam skripsi ini adalah penelitian yuridis normatif dan bersifat diskriptif. Pembahasan dalam tulisan ini membahas mengenai pengaturan hukum internasional terhadap laut tertutup dan semi tertutup pada UNCLOS 1982. Akan dibahas pula mengenai kerjasama regional atas laut tertutup dan semi tertutup serta disertai contoh-contoh pengaturan pada Laut Mediterania, Laut Karibia, Laut Kuning, Laut Hitam, dan Laut Arafura dan Timor. Akan dibandingkan pula ketentuan dari kerangka pengaturan yang ada di kelima contoh tersebut, yaitu Barcelona Convention di Laut Mediterania, Cartagena Convention di Laut Karibia, Bucharest Convention di Laut Hitam, dan ATSEF MoU di Laut Arafura dan Laut Timor. Serta akan disebutkan pelajaran apa yang dapat diambil untuk pengaturan pada Laut Arafura dan Laut Timor sebagai salah satu laut semi-tertutup dimana Indonesia memiliki kepentingan atas pengelolaannya. Hasil dari penelitian ini menyarankan agar didorongnya pembentukan pengaturan regional atas laut tertutup dan semi tertutup, serta harus segera dibentuknya kerangka pengaturan yang mengikat di Laut Arafura dan Laut Timor, dan perlu dibuat National Action Plan yang solutif untuk menghadapi Priority Environmental Concern dari Laut Arafura dan Laut Timor. ......This thesis is will describe the existing law of the sea arrangement on the enclosed sea and semi enclosed sea.
