Interethnic Relations Still A Hot Potato In Daghestan

Over the past six to 12 months, conferences, seminars and roundtable discussions on how to combat the perceived threat of Islamic terrorism have been held in one or another region of Daghestan almost every week. That emphasis created the impression that the North Caucasus resistance was the most serious, if not the sole threat to political stability in Daghestan. 

Last week, however, Daghestan's President Mukhu Aliyev argued that rivalry between the republic's numerous ethnic groups is a major threat, and he called for legislative amendments to allay it.

In 1993, faced by a fierce struggle for political and economic influence among the largest of its dozens of ethnic groups, Daghestan crafted a unique political framework intended to ensure the broadest possible representation of those ethnic groups in government, and to preclude the concentration of political power in the hands of one single ethnic ...

North Caucasus: A Threat To Daghestan

A threat to Daghestan


Makhachkala
Guria MURKLINSKAYA
Ethnic-clannish management system as a threat to national security 

Economic crisis, in the way it is now developing, gradually pulling into its downward spiral all the countries of the world, is advantageous for the United States. We are faced with the strategy of a controlled crisis in economy, worked out as far back as in the midst of the «cold war», and aiming at the exhaustion of the most dangerous geopolitical opponents. This can be understood by how aggressively and vigorously the U.S. is shifting the burden of the crisis on all other countries through the global financial system, and meanwhile is still possessed by imperial ambitions and continues to increase the military expenditure.
