KALININGRAD AUTHORITIES STOPPED THE ACTION OF GREENS
August 19, 1994 (EDI) Kaliningrad, The authorities of
Kaliningrad/Koenigsberg stopped the non-violent international
environmental action of Baltic Greens. The bus with 36 people
from Lithuanian Green Movement,
Lithuanian Universities, ECODEFENSE! (Kaliningrad/Koenigsberg)
and other environmentalists was stopped before Russian-Polish
border (in Kaliningrad region). The bus went along the
Lithuanian and Kaliningrad coast of the Baltic Sea. The
participants of the action went out on the coast time-to-time
and collected coastal garbage. The plan of the action included
similar walk along the Lithuanian, Kaliningrad and Polish
coast. After it the plan included to bring the garbage and
give it to the authorities: Lithuanian garbage to the
lithuanian authorities, the Russian garbage to the Russian
authorities, the Polish garbage to the Polish authorities.
The authorities said the action organizers need pay about
1.300.000 Rub (about $650) for the trip in Poland where Polish
Greens waited the bus for the action continuation.
Participants don't had this money and the official faces of
the Kaliningrad administration don't helped (Before it
lithuanian authorities helped to the organizers, in the
similar case).
Action participants will present the packs with the coast
garbage to the administrations of the coastal regions.

STOCKHOLM IMTERNATIONAL PEACE RESEARCH INSTITUTE PRESENT
Ian Anthony (ed.) THE FUTURE OF THE DEFENCE INDUSTRIES IN
CENTRAL AND EASTERN EUROPE Sipri Research Report No.7
Oxford/Stockholm, University Press/SIPRI, 1994, 142 p.
The report examines the defence industries in Central and
Eastern Europe as they attempt to restructure in the wake of
changes brought about by the end of the cold war and downward
trends in both military expenditure and arms control exports.
Separate chapters examine the developing military doctrines in
Central and Eastern Europe, the trend in military expenditure,
the nature of the efforts to restructure the defence
industries, the international dimensions of industrial
restructuring and the role of arms exports. Finally, the book
attemps to relate the on-going process of defence industrial
restructuring into the context of an overall economic
structural adjustment that is now underway in the countries
under study. Just a personal matter of terminology: I believe
it is better to speak about 'military' industry instead of
'defence' industry, especially as a large part of this study
is devoted to Eastern European international arms exports and
the 'defence' priorities/intentions of the customers are not
always clear.

WISSENSCHAFTSLADEN HANNOVER e.V.
(continuation from N24) Therefore we give advice to all who
need scientific
support in dealing with environmental problems and conflicts.
We give literature references and help to build up information
networks for organizations. If the ones who ask our help are
private people, grass root organizations and citizens' action
groups or if the probelm is from outstanding public interest
we try to do the work for free - as far as possible.
Therefore we take part in research with our own projects
(see below). We try hard to work in fields that are of an
topical scientific interest and to use our work in a way that
is of interest for relevant groups of society and not only for
the scientific community itself. We support critical
scientists and academics and give students the chance to take
part in our projects to get to know something about existing
alternatives to the traditional scientific framework.
Following a selection of topical projects:
* Environmental consciousness of foreign people.
* Electromagnetic fields. Advices for the public and
strategies for mediation.
* History of nature and technics. Case studies and
comparisons in history and presence.
* Ecology and time-system.
* Saving energy.
* Waste avoidance. Conseptional reflections and case
studies.
* Food-stuffs and genetics.
* Climate change and its implications.
* Traffic and environment.
