Trained as a political economist, Dr. Roy has worked in the Gaza Strip and West Bank since 1985 conducting research primarily on the economic, social and political development of the Gaza Strip and on U.S. foreign aid to the region. Dr. Roy has written extensively on the Palestinian economy, particularly in Gaza, and has documented its development over the last three decades. Her current research, which was funded by a grant from the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, examines the social and economic sectors of the Palestinian Islamic movement and their relationship to Islamic political institutions, and the critical changes to the Islamic movement that have occurred over the last decade. Her primary findings point to a restructuring and de-radicalisation of the Islamist movement in the West Bank and Gaza Strip prior to the start of the second Palestinian uprising.</p> </div> <a href="/blog/66463-defending-hamas-sara-roy">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/57191-joseph-nye-hard-power-skills 2008-12-10T14:58:02Z Carnegie Council <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/bSZ6GfKGqFI&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/bSZ6GfKGqFI&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/57191-joseph-nye-hard-power-skills"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/69570" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>According to Joseph Nye, crucial hard-power skills are: organization--the ability to manage as well as lead--and Machiavellian political skills.</p> </div> <a href="/blog/57191-joseph-nye-hard-power-skills">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/56170-peter-poschen-green-jobs 2008-12-02T00:54:22Z Carnegie Council <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/4etD7gSyHes&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/4etD7gSyHes&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/56170-peter-poschen-green-jobs"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/68329" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>The world doesn't have to choose between protecting the environment and development, says Peter Poschen.

That's up from 7,000 just a couple years ago. Most of that money is "on the sidelines." The poor and the middle class are far more generous in their philanthropy, proportionally, than the very wealthy.</p> <p>Philanthropy across the board is in the midst of intense, potentially revolutionary, transition, she said. There's new money, new leaders, new rules, new technology, and new needs. Where great wealth used to come mainly from inheritance and oil, now it comes from success in high technology and finance - and ideas and expectations from those business experiences inform (and sometimes over-simplify) the new philanthropy. Some of the great older institutions like the Rockefeller Foundation are radically reorganizing around new ideas and opportunities. But still the greatest amount comes from individuals, many of whom are now "giving while living" instead of handing over the task to heirs. - The Long Now Foundation</p> </div> <a href="/blog/5683-katherine-fulton-the-new-philanthropy">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/5547-leaving-zimbabwe 2008-11-28T01:28:10Z Gallup <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/CKLYgznVhJM&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/CKLYgznVhJM&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/5547-leaving-zimbabwe"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/4820" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>Attempts at keeping Zimbabweans from leaving their country are futile if the economic situation is not dealt with.</p> </div> <a href="/blog/5547-leaving-zimbabwe">Watch the video</a>
