Clare Daly: January 2023 | Abused Human Rights, China, Selective International Law, And More
The economics of development is going to change under a multipolar order. To discuss this I'm joined by Haider A. Khan, a Professor of International and Development Economics at the University of Denver. Professor Khan was born in Dhaka, East Pakistan, today’s Bangladesh. He became an academic and a policy adviser, being the chief international adviser to Arab Trade and Human Development in Cairo, and a senior economic adviser to the Secretary General of UNCTAD in Geneva, and several governments and International Organizations. He has  published twenty five books and over two hundred articles in professional journals. And he is a poet and art critic, too. Some of Professor Khan's Papers: "Towards a New Non-aligned Movement (NNAM) and a New International Economic Order" https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=4458650 "Consequences of Sanctions on the Russian Economy and the World" https://econpapers.repec.org/paper/pramprapa/116806.htm "Is Nonaligned Foreign Policy for a Small Country Possible? The case of Bangladesh from 1972 to 1975" https://econpapers.repec.org/paper/pramprapa/117087.htm Check out the homepage: www.neutralitystudies.com ------------------------------------------------------ Pascal’s academic articles about neutrality studies: “The Future of Neutrality”.

🌟Great news! An initiative committee in Switzerland is working on making a pro-neutrality referendum a reality. They started gathering signatures in November 2022 and have 18 months to collect 100,000 signatures. If they succeed, the national government has to hold a vote on weather or not to amend the constitution with a very clear definition of their neutrality, including the rejection of one-sided sanctions. This is going to be interesting. I'm talking about this with Dr. Stephan Rietiker, who is a Swiss/US dual national, a business leader, entrepreneur, and a licensed physician in the United Staes and Switzerland. He currently manages his own longevity and well-bing focused company called “EpiLunar Partners”. He is also the founder of “InsideCorona”, a platform that has been critically evaluating government measures and policies during the pandemic. Since Oct 2022 he has been serving as the president of Pro-Switzerland, a libertarian NGO and think-tank strongly advocating for independent national and business oriented policies. As such he is also a member of the initiative committee to create a public referendum on strengthening Switzerland’s neutrality. If you are Swiss, you can sign the initiative here: https://neutralitaet-ja.ch More official info on Switzerland’s neutrality initiative here: https://www.bk.admin.ch/ch/d/pore/vi/vis540t.html Dr. Rietiker’s “Homage to Swiss Neutrality”: https://proschweiz.ch/homage-to-swiss-neutrality ------------------------------------------------------ 🍁𝗔𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗡𝗲𝘂𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗦𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗶𝗲𝘀 🍁 Welcome to our channel dedicated to neutrality in international relations.
