developments and progress in SSR. Security is addressed under Pillar 3 of the Afghan

Development Framework. The synergy between security and sustainable development is well

understood by the Government of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan; and security sector reform

is seen as being central to sustainable security.

1.02 As stated in the Berlin Declaration of 01 April 2004, overall responsibility for the

coordination of Afghan National Security Policy lies with the National Security Council (NSC)

and the National Security Advisor (NSA), supported by Office of the National Security Council

(ONSC).

The Afghan Government has articulated its overarching goals for the well-being of its

people in the Afghanistan Millennium Development Goals Country Report 2005 – Vision

2020. Consistent with those goals, this Compact identifies three critical and interdependent

areas or pillars of activity for the five years from the adoption of this Compact:

1. Security;

2. Governance, Rule of Law and Human Rights; and

3. Economic and Social Development.

A further vital and cross-cutting area of work is eliminating the narcotics industry,

which remains a formidable threat to the people and state of Afghanistan, the region and

beyond.

The Afghan Government hereby commits itself to realising this shared vision of the

future; the international community, in turn, commits itself to provide resources and support

to realise that vision. Annex I of this Compact sets out detailed outcomes, benchmarks and

timelines for delivery, consistent with the high-level goals set by the Afghanistan National

Development Strategy (ANDS). The Government and international community also commit

themselves to improve the effectiveness and accountability of international assistance as set

forth in Annex

Since the Taliban’s fall in 2001, the European Union (EU) has been a major contributor to Afghanistan. A substantial European Commission (EC) delegation oversees an annual budget of some €200 million in development aid, and a Special Representative (EUSR) is in residence. Altogether the EC and member states pledged nearly a third of the money at the 2002 Tokyo and 2004 Berlin donor conferences and the latter contribute over two thirds of the peacekeeping troops as well as Coalition forces battling anti-government insurgents. However EU influence is less than it should be. As a new agenda is drawn up to succeed the Bonn process, the EU needs more internal coordination if it is to gain greater leverage and hold the Afghan government to higher standards of governance and democratic development.

We are grateful to all the Afghans and international aid workers who consented to be interviewed for this report. It is clear that the main reason for optimism about...

جرايم ضد بشري يكي از شنيع ترين جنايات بين المللي به شمار مي‌رود. قانون اساسي افغانستان نيز اين جرايم را به طور ضمني تقبيح نموده و صريحاً محكومان به ارتكاب اين جرايم را از راهيابي به مناصب مهم دولتي محروم نموده است.
 علي رغم آنكه از اين جرايم در قانون اساسي جديد افغانستان نام برده شده است، ولي در مورد تحولات مربوط به آن در حقوق بين الملل و تحليل و بررسي عناصر آن، در داخل كشور منبعي به نظر نمي‌رسد. اين نوشتار به اين مهم مي‌پردازد و آنگاه موارد ذكر اين جرايم را در قانون اساسي بر مي‌شمارد و در پايان راجع به موانع و مقتضيات محاكمه متهمان به اين جرايم در محاكم افغانستان، روشني مي اندازد. نگارنده اميد وار است كه اين مقاله براي حقوق دانان هموطن، دانشجويان رشته حقوق، قضات محترم و كلاي عزيز و جامعه علمي، جهت آشنايي با اين جرايم، مفيد باشد.

حقوق بشر امروز هم به عنوان يك آرزو و آرمان بشري مطرح است و هم از شاخصه هاي توسعه يافتگي جوامع و كشورها محسوب مي شود . با اين حال اين آرزو و آرمان نيك متاسفانه در بسياري از كشورها به دلايل مختلف نهادينه نشده و گاه حتي به طور آشكار و نظام مند نقض مي شود . جوامع مسلمان كه اكثرا در حال توسعه يا توسعه نيافته هستند از اين جمله اند كه در بسياري از آنان حقوق بشر نهادينه نشده و دولتها خود را ملزم به اجراي آن نمي دانند.
