Abstract: For Aristotle, man is an animal having additional capacity for politics. But for Foucault, biological life itself became the object and target of political power. There were two historical events for marking a sort of shift in this. One was focused on disciplining the techniques of power on the individual body and second on managing the life of a new political subject on the population or the biopolitics. These two led to a technology of power on life called Biopower. For Foucault, it operates according to the 'maxim, 'fostering life or disallowing it. It also brought a new form of government and social regulation and also new forms of subjectivtity. Thus power was not something which operates through violence and not imposed upon the subjects from above. But it gradually shifted through normalizing regulation

Abstract: The future is not beyond, it has already begun and what global leaders should do is to carry out appropriate leadership styles to fit well in the competitive and turbulent environment. Some leaders fail due to the inappropriate leadership styles. A true picture of leadership style should always be practiced in global leadership to promote ethics and integrity hence leading to effective global governance. This then results in prosperity and continuity of the world. A new era of leadership has emerged which is leadership that stretches beyond the nations. This article gives a critique of global leadership, explaining what it entails and giving practical examples.

Abstract: In the context of the quest for a New International Economic Order (NIEO), the so called South found itself in a disadvantaged position hence, the initiation of the North-South dialogue. At long last the countries of the world are coming seriously to grips with the growing material inequalities between a handful of affluent nations of the North America, Western Europe and Industrialized Asia and the scores of poor countries in Less developed Asia, Africa and Latin America which constitute the bulk of humanity but enjoy very little of the earth's bounty.

Abstract: Today's approach to democracy in Africa is very far from what is desired and the consequence is that good governance had been sacrificed on the altar of mediocrity. This has led to the collapsed of some democracies in Africa making development in Africa looks like an impossible task. We had rather seen underdevelopment enthroned almost everywhere in the continent thereby strengthening dependency in Africa. This has become worrisome. The paper adopts as its methodology historical/descriptive and prescriptive approaches. The paper therefore attempts to operationalize the concepts: Democracy, Good governance, development and underdevelopment to give the reader a leeway to understand the main trust of the paper. The thrust of this paper therefore is to examine Democracy and Good governance in relation to Development and Underdevelopment: Africa's experience. Finally, the prognoses.

Abstract: Palestine men constantly face social pressures as well as violence,Males in Palestine have to take major family responsibilities at a very young age as they are taught to take care of their sisters, mothers and female members of their community. As they were raised to be tough and resilient, this social upbringing makes them less tolerant to even petty issues at homes. There have been cases reported on violence against women in Palestine.However, to what extend it has an impact on the Palestinians women and its community is remained to be explored. The issue of violence against women is not given sufficient amount of attention.............

Abstract: Would a [sic] time come when we would be freed from being humiliated thus? (Revathi, 109)The environment which plays a crucial role in our physical, mental and social well-being is out of reach for the Transgenders. The transgenders' life is always at stake because of the hostile surroundings in which they live. Invariably they are buffeted by the traumatic conditions; forever they live on the precipice of fear and anxiety in their struggle even to admit to themselves who they are let alone to realize who they are. This 'moment to moment' stress and depression curtail them from insisting on the two 'I's (their eyes).............

Abstract: Communication is about accessing information which can lead to behavioural change. The kind of communication can be between the healthcare worker and the tuberculosis patient or it can also be between the healthcare worker and the tuberculosis kin. This communication can lead to information sharing which can influence the health-seeking behavior of the TB patient. The kind of messages received by the patient apart from influencing behavior change they can also encourage public discourse on TB leading to self disclosure..This paper discusses the role of communication in the management of tuberculosis disease.

Abstract: -This paper aimed to decipher the political agreements of October 18 and December 31, 2016 so as to finally screen their impact on democracy consolidation and on peace construction in Congo-Kinshasa. It demonstrates that those agreements have reversed the foundation of democracy and therefore consacrated its failure in favour of the satisfaction of the political actors and families' greed for power. Furthermore any attempt to construct peace through those political agreements has been illusive as long as citizens have been kept away from the political game where a new political regime devoid of strong popular support is setting in a tense political and social climate. Yet, we have to note from official speeches that we are living in a "democrativorous state"..

Abstract: L'ambition de ce papiera consisté à remonter à la surface le fermant de la revitalisation de la violence dans le jeu politique congolais. Il démontre combien l'Etat congolais, laminé par des malaises sociaux, des contestations de légitimité et verrouillage des voies de lutte démocratique,a été un tremplin à l'explosion de la violence sous la bannière des mouvements politico-militaires AFDL, RCD, MLC, Maï-maïpour désavouer les institutions politiques, et les substituer par un autre régimesouhaité démocratique,dont la mission est d'établir un système social juste et équilibré, où la distribution des ressources collectives est fonction du mérite, de besoin et du statut des membres. Cependant, les attentes populaires quant à ce, sont restées déçues par le remplacement d'une dictature par une autre, dans un continuum d'oppressions aussi rédhibitoires que la crise démocratique des régimes répressifs précédents.
