    Extractions: ASSOCIATED PRESS August 4, 2005 The junta promised to yield to democratic rule within two years, but African leaders and the United States were quick to condemn the coup, declaring that the days of authoritarianism and military rule must end across the continent. Vall, 55, was considered a confidant of Taya and developed a reputation of calmness and reserve while serving as chief since 1987. The junta statement identified Vall as "president" of the military council that seized power. It named 16 other army officers, nearly all colonels, who would rule the country. The U.S. State Department joined the African Union in calling for the restoration of the government. "We call for a peaceful return for order under the constitution and the established government of President Taya," State Department spokesman Tom Casey said in Washington. Casey added that the United States was reaching out and talking to officials from the government.

    Extractions: Origin and Mandate insertion in French). The government continues to constrain and harass the political opposition and human rights NGO community, including through the denial of official registration. In 1998, three prominent human rights activists were held incommunicado for four days for allegedly collaborating in the making of a French television network program to document allegations that slavery persists in Mauritania. Two of the three arrested were charged with acting on behalf of organizations not officially recognized by the government and convicted to thirteen months imprisonment. One of the defense lawyers, another leading human rights activist, was also arrested. Following widespread criticism of the sentences, the human rights activists were pardoned by President Taya. The creation of the Commission on Human Rights, the Fight Against Poverty and Social Inclusion seems to have been motivated by the wish to address broad societal inequalities, including economic disparities. When asked to situate the creation of the commission in the Mauritanian context, Koita Bamariem, the director of human rights promotion in the commission, pointed to the country's social and economic inequities as the key motivation in this decision. He also cited the absence of any other economic and social body in the government as a reason for the creation of the commission: "because it was necessary to adopt a more consolidated approach to economic and social issues, such as water policy or the need for universal education, in order to resolve the problems of poverty which is the most egregious of human rights violations."

    Extractions: Assessment The Commission on Human Rights, the Fight Against Poverty and Social Inclusion's most notable feature is the stress that its mandate places on economic and social rights. Economic and social rights issues are, for the most part, not accorded sufficient attention by national human rights commissions, nor African and international human rights NGOs, although the African Commission on Human and Peoples' Rights has made it a stated priority. National human rights commissions rarely address poverty alleviation and social inequities from a human rights perspective, and the Mauritanian commission is breaking new ground in formally expanding the traditional activities taken up by state human rights commissions. This risk is also felt by the Mauritanian NGOs. The Association Mauritanienne des Droits de l'Homme (AMDH) warned at the twenty-fourth session of the African Commission on Human and People's Rights in October 1998 that "the creation of a human rights commission [in Mauritania] will not be a magic wand that will result in the disappearance of human rights violations."

    Extractions: Government Prior to independence, Mauritania served as a bridge between the Maghrib and West Africa, with strong cultural links to the former and equally strong economic and administrative ties to the latter. Like Sudan and Chad, which also link Arab North Africa with black Africa, Mauritania suffered internal social and political problems as cultures collided. The potential for conflict was strengthened by the proliferation of particularist-regional political parties before independence. These parties, composed exclusively of either ArabBerbers (Maures) or one of several black ethnic groups and advocating union with Arab Morocco or with black Mali, tended to aggravate existing cleavages. To overcome the structural problems intrinsic to the Mauritanian polity, its first president, Moktar Ould Daddah, resorted to one-party rule with a strong executive branch. Although the Constitution of 1961 called for some power-sharing between the president and the legislature, the National Assembly, in practice, routinely supported presidential initiatives, and government remained highly centralized. Daddah's ill-fated participation in the Western Sahara conflict and the resulting ruin of the Mauritanian economy led to a military coup in July 1978. Daddah was detained and later exiled, and his government was replaced by the eighteen-member Military Committee for National Recovery (Comité Militaire de Redressement NationalCMRN) with Lieutenant Colonel Mustapha Salek as president.
