 | | For example the Blantyre Declaration of the SADC Heads of State and Government of 1997 on ensuring that at least 30 percent of all political and decision making positions at all levels are held by women by the year 2005, is being implemented too slowly for the 30 percent goal to be realised by 2005. |  | | In the Southern Region of Malawi, a typical case of political intimidation and male domination in the run up to the local government elections was exemplified. |  | | The policy reaffirms Malawi’s commitment, as a member state of SADC, to the SADC Declaration of 1997 (to which Malawi is a signatory) to fulfil the 30 percent Affirmative Action of women in political and decision making positions by the year 2005. |

 | | Unfortunately, these distortions in participation are likely to perpetuate bias in politics and policymaking as representatives are besieged by voices of the affluent while the political concerns of non-voters remain unheard (Verba, Schlozman, & Brady, 1995). |  | | Since the 1960s, the number of citizens casting a vote in presidential elections has been declining steadily (Rosenstone & Hansen, 1993), and voter turnout in the 1996 election was lower than in any presidential contest since 1924 (Federal Election Commission, 1997; Teixeira, 1992). |  | | The Motor Voter Bill is viewed as a promising means of increasing political participation, particularly among disadvantaged Americans. |

Bertolucci's much-anticipated adaptation of Paul Bowles's cult favorite THE SHELTERING SKY (1990), starring John Malkovich and Debra Winger, proved a critical and financial disappointment. |  | | A later film, TRAGEDY OF A RIDICULOUS MAN (1981), reverses that narrative premise, following a father's search for his son. |
