Though wages and salaries nominally rose 550 per cent for the period 1990 1993, it barely covered half of the inflation rise for the same period.

Vichy France embraced Catholic Corporatism, as did German protectorates over Belgium and the Czech lands, as well as nominally independent Slovakia under Monsignor Jozef Tiso. By the 1960 s, most Latin American countries were avowedly corporatist dictatorships.

UNHCR underlined that the cumulative deficit from 2000 to 2004 amounted to 160 million, but that, after prior year adjustments, its reserves and fund balance at year's end had nominally increased from 128 million to 142.4 million.

Despite the government s crisis of legitimacy and endemic mismanagement, the Green Movement nominally led by opposition presidential candidates Mir Hossein Mousavi and Mehdi Karroubi faces major obstacles. Their brain trust is either in prison, under virtual house arrest, or unable to communicate freely.

This figure is made up of the nominally registered population (22,048,356), the population omitted from the register (531,543) and the population of the Native Communities of the Peruvian Amazon, which it is impossible to register on account of difficulties of access and isolation.

Although nominally governed by ethnic federalism, where this threatened secession, as in Oromia or the Ogaden, Meles was quick to ignore the constitutional set up. Although he strengthened religious freedom and peaceful coexistence between Muslims and Christians, the human rights situation in Ethiopia remained poor.

No sooner did one intergovernmental conference produce a settlement than the wheels started turning to prepare for a successor conference and a successor settlement. This mechanism for the deliberately progressive construction of a unified polity out of nominally sovereign states is unprecedented in human history.

Because China continues to favor state capitalism and discriminates against the private sector, it lacks strong private firms that can take on Western multinational giants. Except for Huawei, Lenovo, and perhaps Haier (which is nominally collectively owned), there are no private Chinese firms with a global footprint.

Meanwhile, political factors played an important role in allowing debt to build up creating vulnerabilities that could quickly become an economic crisis once investors became nervous. Even though South Korean state owned banks nominally controlled the flow of capital, tight relationships between the private sector and the government meant that the chaebol felt they had little to fear.

By promoting Islamic revival as a solution to the region s ills, Islamism led to the marginalization of non Muslims, including groups that had played outsize roles in the region s economic, cultural, and political life for centuries. As a result, in places like Egypt, Christians have faced harsh social discrimination and violence, sometimes at the hands of the nominally secular state.

In today s Poland, it is harder to accept wages nominally about a third of those in Germany that had seemed perfectly adequate in 2007, when they were only a quarter of the German level. But, unsurprisingly, Kopacz s campaign slogan, A strong economy higher wages, and her implicit promise to address the issue in one parliamentary term, did not appear credible.

Like the eight year civil war (in what was then known as Zaire) that nominally ended in 2002, the current fighting involves many different local groups not only the Congolese government forces, which oppose the insurgents loyal to the Tutsi General Laurent Nkunda, but also the Rwandan Hutu rebels who were responsible for the genocide in Rwanda in the 1990 s and a jungle force known as the Mai Mai militias. It is a basket of crabs, one Congolese friend told me.
