This chapter contributed by Knut Gunnar Nustad discusses notions of 'property' and 'rights' in the context of South Africa's land reform programme. Both concepts carry with them a heavy ideological baggage. This is evident in the policies on land reform, which have sought to reach a compromise between different and often contradictory histories of both rights and property.

Akronymet REDD står for «Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and forest Degradation in developing countries». På norsk altså «Redusere utslipp fra avskoging og skogforringelse i utviklingsland».
REDD-arbeid skal bidra til å redusere klimaendringene ved å bygge opp et insentivsystem der rike land skal kompensere utviklingsland økonomisk for å redusere CO2-utslipp fra skogsektoren.

Recent ethnographies of clinical research in Africa have described the impotance of "relatedness" to the successful conduct of trials. They have also revealed the tensions between such relatedness and the scentific and ethical rules of clinical trial work, and at the risks of mixing professional and private, erasing the "ordered separartions upon which formal ethics and scientific evidence rest". Among other colleagues, Ruthe Prince and Paul Wenzel Geissler participate in this overviewarticle of HIV science in western Kenya.

De fleste har fortalt eller hørt historier om utskeielser i fylla. Likevel tenker de færreste over at fyllehistorier eller drikkehistorier er en egen sjanger, med relativt klart definert struktur, typiske tema og gjenkjennbart språk. I denne artikkelen viser Sébastien Tutenges og Sveinung Sandberg fram særtrekkene ved unges fyllehistorier. Forfatterne beskriver hvilke sammenhenger disse fortellingene ofte dukker opp i og diskuterer hvordan de brukes til å underholde, trekke moralske grenser og overkomme traumatiske opplevelser. Mange drikkepisoder har historienes gjenkjennelige struktur og tema, og kan ses som iscenesettelser av velkjente fyllehistorier. Forfatterne argumenter derfor for at historier ikke bare bearbeider opplevelser, men også motiverer og inspirerer atferd.

Sindre Bangstad gives an historical overview of political experiences which can be connected with attitudes of xenohphobia in Norway. One of his observations is that "it is not white Norwegians of working-class background in Oslo East who hold the most negative views of immigrants and minorities in Norway. Those white Norwegians who are most likely to hold the most negative views of immigrants and minorities are in fact those least likely to have everyday contact with people of immigrant and minority background"

International organisations are typically composed of representatives with affiliations to the national level. The European Commission, in contrast, is one of the few international institutions in which key actors owe their allegiances to the supranational level.
