TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the intra-regional conflict management activities of the Organization of African Unity (OAU) and provided three traditional regionalist claims and suggestions concerning the future role of such organizations are provided.
Abstract: This article examines the intraregional conflict management activities of the Organization of African Unity (OAU). Three traditional regionalist claims are tested and suggestions concerning the future role of such organizations are provided. The findings indicate that in a number of cases the OAU was not an effective agent for conflict management; its limitations were clearest in internal disputes and those international conflicts involving allegations of subversion. Evidence from this study does not convincingly support the proposition that similarities of interests, problems, and loyalties found at the regional level make it more likely that attempts at settlement will be forthcoming and successful. Other findings indicate that the organization was able to isolate intra-regional conflicts from entanglement in more complex global disputes; this ability was, however, highly dependent on the desire of the great powers to remain uninvolved. The OAU was able to relieve the UN of the potential burden of numerous local conflicts, but this too sometimes proved dependent on policy decisions made by the United States or the Soviet Union. It is suggested that regional organizations may assist the superpowers in avoiding unwanted involvement in local disputes, but that unless the conflict management capacity of such organizations is increased, the result may be that many conflicts will remain unsettled.

TL;DR: Debla is the name of a long east-west ridge forming one of the first foothills of the White Mountains of western Crete, above the great plain west of Khania.
Abstract: Debla is the name of a long east-west ridge forming one of the first foothills of the White Mountains of western Crete, above the great plain west of Khania (Plate 48a). The ridge attains a height of 542 m. and the Minoan settlement lies on the summit area (Figs. 1–2, Plate 48b). The site was first investigated in 1968 by Messrs. E. Vardhinoyannis and J. Tsiphetakis during excavations of the Hellenistic and Roman town on the Kastellos, a hill north of and well below the Debla ridge. In 1968 the site was also explored by Professor P. Faure, who published a description and illustrations. P. Warren, Mrs. Warren, and Mr. Tsiphetakis subsequently made a visit on 19 May 1970.

TL;DR: The adherence of the African States to the principle of the peaceful settlement of disputes as a logical corollary to the prohibition of the threat or use of force in international relations as embodied in the Charter of the United Nations can be traced back long before the Organization of African Unity came into existence.
Abstract: The adherence of the African States to the principle of the peaceful settlement of disputes as a logical corollary to the prohibition of the threat or use of force in international relations as embodied in the Charter of the United Nations can be traced back long before the Organization of African Unity ca me into existence. The League of Arab States of which 6 of the I4 members are African States (Algeria, Egypt, Libya, Morocco, Sudan, Tunisia), provides in artic1e 5 of its constitutive instrument, called the Pact of the Arab League, for the prohibition of force in the resolution of disputes among the members of the League.1 One of the most important documents which re-affirmed the principle of peaceful settlement of disputes is the Bandung Dec1aration of I955.2

TL;DR: In Colombia, government agencies are implementing experimental programs to integrate the residents of these barrios into the urban society as mentioned in this paper, in doing so they are seeking to tap the desire of these populations to become full participants in the urban milieu.
Abstract: T HERE HAS BEEN much research on squatter settlements in Latin America but few studies have dealt with government programs aimed at renovating invasion barrios. Historically most studies have discussed the "marginal" or "adaptive" nature of these settlements.' Regardless of the merit of this controversy, Colombian governmental agencies are implementing experimental programs to integrate the residents of these barrios into the urban society. In doing so they are seeking to tap the desire of these populations to become full participants in the urban milieu. Colombian renovation programs combine public resources with the labor and capital and the organizational resources of local inhabitants in "self-help" programs. Given the resistance of the settlers to be moved

TL;DR: The last attempt to establish African homelands for freed slaves from the Americas was made by the American Colonization Society in late 1821, and with the gradual purchase of more and more land in the Mesurado River area, the colony grew as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: Liberia is situated on the Pepper Coast of West Africa, some six degrees north of the equator opposite the northeastern coast of South America, and represents the last of four attempts to establish African homelands for freed slaves from the Americas.2 The first three, in 1811, 1815 and 1820-21, were unsuccessful because of ill health among the colonists and lack of adequate funds. The attempt at settlement made by the American Colonization Society in late 1821, however, proved to be successful, and with the gradual purchase of more and more land in the Mesurado River area, the colony grew. By the time of the Confederate War in this country, over 1 1,000 Afro-Americans had been established in Liberia.
