- Afghanistan's vast mineral deposits could lift it out of poverty | Eleanor Nichol
Afghanistan has rich seams of minerals, worth up to $3tn, but systems to ensure transparency and control of revenue flows must quickly be put in place in the extractive sectorFor all the column inches and hours of negotiations spent discussing Afghanistan's recent past, present and future, one of the most pressing parts of the puzzle remains largely overlooked and poorly understood. The country sits on top of vast mineral deposits, which, if properly managed, offer the best chance of lifting a generation out of poverty and weaning the country off international aid.Afghanistan houses rich seams of copper, iron, gold, lithium and rare earth deposits worth up to $3 trillion, according to the Afghan government. Unsurprisingly, the government and international community are eager to see these resources exploited. The plan is to sell off rights to access many of the country's mineral deposits over the next three years in the runup to transition in 2014 – potentially releasing a vast amount of revenue for the Afghan economy.What happens to that money will largely depend on the decisions taken by the Afghan government, its international allies and investing companies over the next three years. With the right systems in place to govern a fast-emerging extractive sector, these revenue streams could bridge the funding gap left by a cash-strapped OECD community that is looking to reduce Afghan dependence on its money post-2014.But it could just as easily go the other way. The billions of aid dollars invested over the past 10 years have not produced the intended results. As of this January, an estimated $286.4bn had been invested in Afghanistan since the invasion – that's $9,426 per head of population. Despite this spending, the country remains hugely dependent on aid, with many Afg _NULL_

- Letters: The long arm of corporate influence
Felicity Lawrence is right to highlight the enormous power of transnational companies (TNC) relative to that of many governments (A mere state can't restrain a corporation like Murdoch's, 29 July). She is also right to say that governments will find it increasingly difficult to get tax payments from such entities, many of which make extensive use of tax havens in order to reduce their tax bills in other countries – including the poorest.What makes the situation even more disturbing is the scale of world trade that now takes place within transnational companies – it is estimated at between 40 and 60% of all trade. This leaves huge scope for unscrupulous firms to manipulate the prices of deals between their subsidiaries in order to ensure their profits wind up in low-tax jurisdictions.While the OECD has rules meant to prevent such abuse, enforcing them is a challenge for even relatively well-resourced tax authorities such as the UK's. Developing countries have little hope against TNCs' armies of tax lawyers and accountants. This is why Christian Aid and others are calling for TNCs to be required to be more transparent about their finances, revealing the profits they have made and taxes paid in every country where they operate. We also want automatic, multilateral exchange of information between tax authorities to curtail the secrecy offered by tax havens.Both moves would make life harder for companies and individuals seeking to dodge the tax that governments everywhere need to fund public services.Dr David McNairSenior economic justice adviser, Christian Aid• Felicity Lawrence is correct to assert that governments are increasingly ineffectual in restraining the influence of corporate power on public policy.

- Poland streamlines its aid policy | Lucy Lamble
Since joining the EU in 2004, Poland has rapidly increased its foreign aid, but it is not on track to meet its commitment of 0.33% of GNI by 2015. Will a change of emphasis accelerate progress?As part of its EU presidency, Poland played host to last week's EU DevDays. Next month the country's new development co-operation act comes into force. What is Polish aid worth? Where does it go? And what makes Poland's approach different from its neighbours?Currently, none of the four central European Visegrád states (Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovak Republic and Poland) are on track to reach their EU commitment to donate 0.33% of gross national income (GNI) by 2015. The EU's 2011 accountability report (pdf) shows that to reach the 2015 target, Poland and the Slovak Republic would need to spend five times as much on aid over the next five years as they currently do, Hungary would have to give four times as much, and the Czech Republic would have to triple its aid.Poland's foreign aid spend in 2010 was $377m. That's 0.08% of GNI, considerably less than its international commitment to increase aid to 0.17% by 2010.Despite these figures, last month's Eurobarometer opinion poll on attitudes to development aid (pdf) showed Poles are some of the most supportive of development aid (92%). According to the EU-wide survey, 85% of Europeans find development aid very important or fairly important. This has decreased by four percentage points, from 89%, since the last survey in 2010. In the UK it's 81%. In Hungary support is weaker, at 75%.Since joining the EU in 2004, Poland has rapidly increased its foreign aid.

- An inspiring student protest that we won't let the violent undermine | Aaron Porter
The political message of our march against tuition fees remains clear – despite a very small minority's attempt to hijack itYesterday was a long day of mixed emotions for me and thousands of others who came from all corners of the country to join with us in London yesterday to defend education.More than 50,000 students, lecturers, teachers, brothers, sisters and parents took to London's streets for a jointly organised NUS and UCU march against brutal government cuts to our colleges and universities, proposals to triple fees and cuts to maintenance support for the poorest learners.I am proud that our hard work in building a public case to defend education brought together so many people for the biggest student demonstration in a generation. We had a clear message to send and together we sent it. I am proud of those who joined us.This was the first step in holding politicians to account and using the democratic powers in our control in order to win our case. There will be a vote on the lifting of the top-up fee cap, probably before the end of the month, and I urged all those present to go back to their constituencies, to organise and to hold politicians to account. This is the only way we will achieve our aims.Our membership rightly wanted and expected an opportunity to peacefully express their grievances and it was our responsibility to help deliver that.

Today, shareholders will be attending the AGM of Vedanta Resources, a UK-listed mining company whose operations in Orissa, India, have been the subject of international criticism. An existing alumina factory at the foot of the Niyamgiri hills is alleged to be polluting waterways and damaging crops, while plans to build a bauxite mine at the top of the hill threaten massive disruption to the lives of around 8,000 Dongria Kondh tribespeople. In October 2009, the UK OECD contact point upheld a complaint that Vedanta had failed to respect the rights of the indigenous community.The Royal Bank of Scotland and its subsidiaries have been involved in financing Vedanta Resources on a number of occasions, including after the bank had received billions of pounds of public money to stay afloat. As taxpayers, we are gravely concerned that public money through RBS could be used again in future to provide support for controversial companies like Vedanta that are alleged to be disregarding environmental and human rights concerns. In February, the Church of England announced that it was divesting from Vedanta. The Treasury should follow suit and impose social and environmental criteria on the recapitalised banks to ensure such destructive projects are not the recipients of public money.Kevin Smith Platform, Richard Solly London Mining Network, Johan Frijns BankTrack, Louise Hazan People & Planet, Duncan McLaren Friends of the Earth Scotland, Deborah Doane World Development Movement, Clayton Thomas-Muller Indigenous Environmental Network, Ramamurthi Sreedhar Environics Trust, Geoff Nettleton Indigenous People LinksVedanta ResourcesIndiaRoyal Bank of ScotlandAnglicanismguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2010 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | Mo 今日では、株主はヴェーダーンタの資源、その操作オリッサ州で、インドは、国際的な批判の対象とされている英国の上場鉱山会社の年次総会に参加されます

- G20 fails to curb fossil fuels
Subsidies rise to $470bn despite deal to phase them outFossil fuel subsidies worldwide rose to least $470bn in 2010, according to analysts at the OECD and the International Energy Agency.In 2009, G20 member countries agreed to cut fossil fuel subsidies, to foster green growth and to avoid encouraging overconsumption. But the subsidies instead rose last year by about $100bn on 2009, although they were about $150bn lower than in 2008, when oil prices peaked.Roughly half of these government subsidies target oil prices, with about a quarter benefiting gas.The IEA said that gradual phasing out of fossil fuel subsidies by 2020 would reduce global energy demand by 4.1%, cutting demand for oil by 3.7m barrels a day. Dropping subsidies could slow growth in CO2 emissions by 1.7bn tonnes a year, equivalent to the total emissions of the UK, Germany, Italy and France.The subsidies do not only concern fossil fuel producers but also consumers. Governments present them as a means of alleviating poverty and supporting economic activity, but the IEA analysts claim that such support misses its target. In 2010, only 8% of these subsidies reached the poorest 20% of the population, it said, while by lowering the price of fossil fuels the subsidies encouraged countries to import more, reducing their energy independence.The IEA does, however, see some sign of progress. Nearly half the countries where energy prices are artificially kept low have taken steps since the beginning of 2010 to rationalise the discrepancy, as a result of the pressing need for budget restraint.A version of this article first appeared in Le MondeFossil fuelsEnergy efficiencyG20guardian.co.uk © 2011 Guardian News and Media Limited or its affiliated companies.

- Why the G8 should open its books | Karin Christiansen and Craig Fagan
Aid transparency is key to making the best of aid spending. It creates a vital mechanism for taxpayers, NGOs and donors to increase efficiency and reduce waste and corruptionThe controversy over the leaked G8 report measuring progress against 2005 aid commitments demonstrates yet again the need for greater aid transparency.The numbers used by the G8 to measure spending on development do not match other assessments, including those by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). Aid campaigners such as Oxfam have suggested the G8 is trying to hide its failure to stick to commitments.Lack of aid transparency means we are wasting time and energy arguing about what has and hasn't happened. Energy that should be spent on the shared goal of getting the most out of aid in the fight against poverty and social injustice.Increased aid transparency is key to making the best of aid spending. It creates a vital mechanism for taxpayers, citizens, journalists, NGOs and donors themselves to increase efficiency and reduce waste and corruption. When information is comparable and accessible, aid transparency helps citizens to follow the money – from the donor down to the textbooks, medicines and miles of road built.Citizens of developing countries want a picture of how much aid their governments are receiving, and whether that aid is fuelling development or corruption. A recent analysis of 95 countries found that greater transparency among donors leads to lower corruption levels in partner countries.In Liberia, perhaps the most highly aid-dependent country in the world, it is estimated that there is more than double the amount of aid being spent than is reported to the government. That makes Liberian citizens' own budget transparency and accountability efforts at bes 援助の透明性は、援助支出の最適化するための鍵です

Half of 15-year-old girls have been drunk at least twice, nearly double the average proportion in other developed countriesBritish girls are the biggest teenage binge drinkers in the western world, according to a report.Half of 15-year-olds have been drunk at least twice – almost double the 29% average of other developed countries, while 44% of 15-year-old British boys admitted to being intoxicated on two or more occasions.Girls also drink more alcohol in the UK than their male counterparts, with 44% of 15-year-old boys being intoxicated on two or more occasions.The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) figures were published in a Through the Looking Glass, a report commissioned by the thinktank Demos. They found that between 1998 and 2008 the proportion of girls who binge-drank – defined as consuming more than six drinks per session – increased from 17% to 27%.As part of the report, which offers recommendations for a policy to empower young women, Demos conducted a poll of 500 British females aged 16 to 19. It found 84% were anxious about being able to secure the job they wanted in the future, with 81% also worried about doing well in exams.Money fears also featured highly, with more than three-quarters (76%) saying they were worried about not having enough money, compared with 38% who were anxious about finding a partner and 57% who were worried about getting into university.Having more cash to spend was ranked as the top answer (27%), when girls were asked what would make them happiest, while in second place was a good or better relationship with their boyfriend, girlfriend or partner (26%).The poll also found teenage girls thought success in education (92%), having good friends (72%) and being kind (70%) would enable them to excel in life.Am 15歳の女の子の半分は、ほぼ西側世界で最大の十代のどんちゃん騒ぎ飲酒されている他の先進countriesBritish女の子の平均割合を2倍に少なくとも2回飲まれているされている15歳のreport.Halfに応じて酔って少なくとも2倍 - また、その男性よりも英国では以上のアルコールを飲んで入院15歳のイギリスの少年の44％は、2つ以上のoccasions.Girlsに酔っているしながら、ほとんど、他の先進国の29％の平均の2倍経済協力開発機構（OECD）の数字の中の15歳の少年二以上のoccasions.The組織に酔うの44％とルッキンググラス、シンクタンクデモ委託報告書を通じてで出版された

- Israel and Turkey: sailing into choppy waters | Editorial
Once again Israel has chosen a tactical victory over a strategic relationshipWhat happened when Israeli commandos boarded the Mavi Marmara, the largest ship in a flotilla aimed at breaking the Gaza siege, cannot be undone. But the diplomatic consequences of the assault that killed nine Turks were far from predetermined. Negotiations took place over the next 15 months between Turkey and Israel. Suggested phrases went back and forward, but each time the two sides came close to an agreement, it was leaked. The talks were considered so important that the publication of the UN investigation, chaired by Geoffrey Palmer, a former New Zealand prime minister, was delayed for three months.In the end, that report, which criticised Israel for using excessive force but upheld its right to blockade Gaza, was itself leaked. In offering regret and compensation but refusing to apologise, Binyamin Netanyahu's government made a conscious decision: once again Israel chose a tactical victory over a strategic relationship. At stake was more than an important military association, more than trade and tourism. It was Turkey's decision to waive its veto that allowed Israel to join the OECD. Turkey is an increasingly important interlocutor in an Arab world that has lost the certainties of its dictators, the Mubaraks, Gaddafis and Ben Alis. You may disagree with the line Turkey takes, but there is not a country in the region, including Iran and Syria, that has not used its services.Israel will be able to do so no longer. Where the Mavi Marmara went, Turkey will follow by challenging the Gaza blockade in the international court of justice. And rightly so. The Palmer panel's finding went against every statement the UN secretary general has made about Gaza, the Goldstone report and a report by the U _NULL_
- Moral Hazard, Government Style In Estonia
In 2009, when the U.S. authorities bailed out some of the key participants in the sub-prime mortgage debacle, it became clear (to paraphrase George Orwell) that “all are equal, but some are more equal than others.” Regardless of its political hue, the government was going to offer a helping hand to such giants as AIG or Citigroup, creating, in economists’ parlance, a problem of moral hazard.
At its core, moral hazard is about an absence of responsibility for one’s risky or incompetent behavior. Companies deemed “too big to fail” can engage in risky investment ventures or delay painful restructuring, knowing that the economy-wide ramifications of a potential collapse will force governments to dole out generous bailout packages.
Not surprisingly, the recent crisis has cast the moral hazard problem almost exclusively as a hallmark of large corporations, thus creating a legitimate opportunity for government interference. The government itself, however, is by far the most likely and dangerous source of the problem. If being too big to fail is a tell-tale sign of moral hazard situations, then the government apparatus and the politicians who service it become natural suspects.
Even in free-market economies, however, governments can still be susceptible to moral hazard situations. Consider Estonia, known until recently as one of the most business-friendly economies in Europe, a country that joined the OECD in December 2010 and adopted the Euro in January 2011.
In 2001, the government of Tallinn, the Estonian capital city, sold a majority of its share in Tallinna Vesi, a Soviet-era water utility, to U.K.-based United Utilities Group PLC (UU.L). As a part of the deal, the investor agreed to upgrade the quality of the drinking water, to bu 2009年に、米国の当局は、サブプライムローンの崩壊で重要な参加者の一部を救済するときに、明らかになった（言い換えジョージオーウェルに）。。u0026quot;すべては同じですが、一部は他よりも等しいです

- German stereotypes: über-efficiency
They do work less and get more done than the British – but this productivity comes at the cost of rigid bureaucracyThey do seem to faff about rather less than we do. According to statistics from the OECD, your average German works 256 fewer hours a year than their British counterpart and yet gets a lot more done.Plus while pretty much every other country in the western world was just trying not to go bust last year in the aftermath of the financial crisis, German labour productivity actually increased. Annoying, isn't it?Well actually, it sometimes is. The downside of this efficiency is the bureaucracy that underpins it. Germans only manage to produce so much because they have a set of rigid, unbendable rules and they stick to them.Everything has to be done exactly as prescribed – und keine Ausfülle (no exceptions)! There is no point waving madly at the bus driver to let you on after he has closed the doors: the timetable leaves no time for compassion.Of course the upsides are numerous: the streets are clean, houses are properly insulated and if a German Bauarbeiter (builder) says he will be there by 8am, you know he means it.Just don't expect him to work a minute after five.GermanyEuropeHelen Piddguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2011 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More Feeds

- Letters: Broken promises on aid for Africa
There are sound reasons for agreeing with Timothy Garton Ash's assessment of this week's G8 meeting in Deauville (If Obama really wants to lead us to a free world, he should abolish the G8, 26 May). We already know, for instance, that the G8's analysis of their own development spending conflicts with that of the OECD, and conveniently presents figures which have not been adjusted to account for inflation. Also, the agenda apparently does not identify any time for a discussion about where they are on meeting the 2005 Gleneagles pledges. Several G8 members are seriously off track and many donors, including the UK, are increasingly focusing resources on migration, security and commercial interests. If the G8 members had all kept their promises, every child would now be going to school. Instead, for Africa, only $11bn of the $25bn promised has arrived. It is right that there are discussions planned with the prime ministers of Egypt and Tunisia – who will make their case for substantial aid and other support. However, if the G8 continue to let down the world's poorest and most needy people, we can only hope that the G20 will do better.Glenys KinnockOpposition spokesperson on international development in the House of Lords• The G20 does indeed represent a wider group of economic powers than the outdated G8. But the real challenge is that neither effectively represents the priorities of the poorest countries. Neither, it seems, does the WTO, given the US's failure to comply with its ruling that their cotton subsidies skew the market and make it impossible for millions of farmers across Africa to make a decent living.Paul SprayDirector of policy, TraidcraftG8AfricaBarack ObamaWTOAidG20guardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2011 | Use of this content is subject to o ドーヴィルの今週のG8サミットのティモシーガートンアッシュの評価に同意のサウンドの理由があります（オバマ氏は本当に無料なの世界に私たちをリードして欲しいなら、彼は5月26日にG8を廃止すべきである）

- UK and US fall in Forbes's best countries for business ranking
Forbes study shows Denmark remains best country to do business in while Ireland takes sixth place from UKDenmark is still the best country in the world to do business, according to a Forbes report, but the US has dropped from second to ninth place, while Hong Kong has gone the other way. The UK has fallen from sixth to tenth place, replaced by Ireland, in Forbes's fifth annual ranking of the Best Countries for Business.The report noted that after Britain enjoyed the longest period of expansion on record – during which time growth outpaced most of western Europe – the global financial crisis hit the economy particularly hard in 2008, due to the importance of its financial sector. Services, particularly banking, insurance, and business services, account, by far, for the largest proportion of GDP while industry continues to decline in importance.A high tax burden and a poor showing on trade and monetary freedom compared to many other developed nations were blamed for the drop in the US's ranking. Another major issue is that the business climate for entrepreneurs and investors in the world's largest economy, which is teetering on the edge of a double-dip recession, has fallen behind other countries. The 35% federal corporate tax rate is the highest of any OECD country, according to the Tax Foundation. One bright spot for America is that it still ranks first when it comes to innovation.By contrast, Hong Kong scored in the top three for taxes, investor protection and both trade and monetary freedom. Its economy has bounced back more quickly than others after it forged closer ties to China through tourism, trade and finance.

While it's all doom and gloom in the UK and US, other countries are finding newspaper readership at healthy levelsThis is the crunching age of international league tables, with their crunchy imperatives to buck up, cut back and consume large doses of the purgative of the day (as prescribed by the IMF, the ECB, the OECD or whoever). Greece, Spain, Portugal, Britain… we're all sinking ships, according to legions of newspaper pundits, the People Who Know. But what happens when one of these global monitors – the OECD – swivels round and looks at the state of journalism itself? Prepare to sit rather uncomfortably.An OECD working party produced a thumping report on newspaper futures last week that made big headlines in America. US circulations falling like a stone (only 30% saying they read a paper the previous day). Sales and advertising revenue down a walloping 30% in two years. Cue much familiar transatlantic wailing. So cue contrapuntal UK grins, plus smug lectures on the competitive wonders of our own fantastic press?Forget it. Cue white-faced gloom. In virtually every category, Britain fared second worst among all the OECD's 31 member countries. Our publishing market – turnover via sales and ads – had slipped 21% between 2007 and 2009, worse than Greece. Projected print advertising falls, at 26%, were the steepest in Europe. Only 33 British citizens out of 100 claimed to have read a paper recently – as opposed to 94% in Japan and 82% in Norway. There's no hiding the harsh truth, then.

- I'm too busy staring into space for leisure | Tim Dowling
So British men have 32 more minutes of leisure time a day than women do – I'd better ask the dog what to do with itA survey by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) has found that British men have, on average, more leisure time in their day than women – 32 minutes more, to be precise. This is a lot compared with Germany, where men get just 22 minutes extra, but still not really enough to be of much use. If you have to drive to your leisure activity and back, for example, you may as well not bother; better to stay home and fret quietly.There are, of course, some grey areas in this leisure gap. Shopping can be a hobby or a chore, depending on what you're buying and how much you've got to spend. Grooming can be business or pleasure, depending on your point of view. Enjoying your job in any way would probably be considered cheating.I'm not the busiest person in the world, or even in my marriage, but officially, none of my time is free time. Every minute of every day is spoken for. All my leisure activities, therefore, take place in hours robbed from non-leisure categories. I watch telly when I should be sleeping. I teach myself the banjo off the internet when I should be working. I read when I should be playing with my children.Because I work from home, most of my hobbies – and don't get me wrong, I have many – must be reclassified for accounting purposes. The average 20 minutes per day spent talking to the dog as if it were my therapist, for example, counts as admin. Picking small objects off the ground in the park gets filed under research and development.

- OECD is ushering Israel in too easily | Seth Freedman
Economic pressure is a powerful tool when it comes to Israel, and the OECD is undermining the EU's firm stanceDespite all the diplomatic disquiet over Israeli policy towards the Palestinians, actions speak far louder than words when it comes to Israel's international status. In May, the country seems set to be ushered into the OECD, following years of campaigning from successive Israeli governments. Such a move would be another step in welcoming Israel in from the cold, and demonstrates certain states' willingness to overlook Israel's questionable behaviour as an occupier in favour of enhanced fiscal and political ties.In January the OECD's incumbent secretary general implied that Israel's admission is all but guaranteed, and there seems little objection to the decision from the organisation's 30 member states. For Israel's part, accession to the OECD is of great advantage, both in terms of global prestige and practical economic benefits. Israel's credit rating will be upgraded as a result, and Israeli firms will find it much easier to raise capital on the back of the vote of confidence issued by the OECD's leadership.The only fly in the ointment is a dispute over information submitted by Israel to the OECD as part of its application for membership. Data provided by Israeli officials included figures related to Israel's settler population, which contravenes OECD policy not to take account of a state's economic activity beyond its recognised borders. A leaked report reveals discord among OECD statisticians, who maintain that the data should either include everyone residing in the West Bank – Palestinians as well as settlers – or no one at all.The row has the potential to derail Israel's acceptance to the OECD because revamped numbers could leave Israel short of the organ パレスチナ人に対するイスラエルの政策をめぐるEUの企業stanceDespiteすべての外交的不安に低下させて経済的圧力を、イスラエルに来るの強力なツールであり、OECD諸国は、アクションを話すまでの言葉よりもときに、イスラエルの国際的な状態にしています
