Human Security

Refugee is an urgent call to action. It is a book to help Christian's untangle themselves from arguments on topics, such as politics and immigration, and truly release the Kingdom of God which is within every believer. Born out of a personal frustration of apathetic Christianity, the book will help guide people into a better understanding of their refugee assignment from heaven for immediate impact.

Affermati nel 1945 dalla Dichiarazione universale e difesi dalla Comunità internazionale i diritti umani sono proclamati e violati, celebrati e calpestati ogni giorno. Questo audiolibro offre una guida per districarsi tra i meccanismi di garanzia - dall'Onu alla Corte europea, alla Commissione africana - segnalandone i punti di forza e le debolezze.

Was wäre, wenn jeder von uns Monat für Monat 1200 Euro überwiesen bekäme? Vom Staat. Einfach so. 1200 Euro, mit denen jeder von uns seine existenziellen Grundbedürfnisse wie Nahrung, Wohnen, Wärme - abdecken könnte. Ohne jegliche Bedingung. Zu schön, um wahr zu sein? War das eben Ihr erster Gedanke? Ist es nicht erschreckend, dass man sich nicht einmal in Gedanken dem Traum eines bedingungslosen Grundeinkommens hingeben kann, ohne sich selbst einen Fantasten zu schimpfen? Wie aber soll dieses "Menschenrecht" jemals Wirklichkeit werden, wenn wir uns schon den Gedanken an dieses Grundrecht verwehren?

En janvier 1789, bravant l'interdit qui leur est fait d'exprimer leurs doléances, les femmes osent faire entendre leur voix. De Normandie, Madame B. B. écrit : "Étant démontré, avec raison, qu'un noble ne peut représenter un roturier ni celui-ci un noble, de même les femmes ne pourraient être représentées que par des femmes." Après 1791 et la Déclaration des droits de la femme et de la citoyenne, d'Olympe de Gouges, les femmes, toujours exclues de la citoyenneté, exigent leurs droits et les fondent sur les principes mêmes de la Révolution.

Cameras that can see through your clothes at 80 paces; council tax rising to cover increased CCTV needs; suggestions that Internet Service Providers should monitor customer usage in the comfort of their own homes; plus ID cards, fingerprint and eyeball recognition on the horizon. In the 21st century is there anywhere to hide? And if not, should there be? Big Brother: Who is watching you? twitches the curtain and takes a hard look at our increasingly hi-tech, zero privacy society.

I primissimi articoli della Dichiarazione Universale dei Diritti Umani e della Convenzione Europea per la salvaguardia dei diritti dell'uomo e delle libertà fondamentali sono chiarissimi: nessuno può essere ridotto in schiavitù, nessuno può essere sottoposto a tortura, a trattamenti inumani e degradanti. Nessuno. Abbiamo creato un sistema di garanzia dei diritti umani per evitare che l'orrore si ripetesse e l'abbiamo fatto dopo averlo visto con i nostri occhi di occidentali, l'orrore. Abbiamo però evitato di dire che i diritti, come gli occhi, erano occidentali.

Sie war eine prominente deutsche Geisel der türkischen Regierung: Als angebliche Terrorunterstützerin saß die Journalistin und Übersetzerin Meşale Tolu mit ihrem kleinen Sohn in Haft; danach wurde ihr die Ausreise aus der Türkei verweigert. Jetzt, wieder in Deutschland, berichtet sie über diese Zeit: über die Brutalität von Polizei und Justiz, das Alltagsleben in der politischen Gefangenschaft zwischen Hoffnung und Verzweiflung, ihren Kampf um Freiheit für ihre Familie und ihren Einsatz für die Pressefreiheit.

A lot of people are not happy with politics. In many family gatherings, politics (and religion) are often frowned upon during conversation, and is usually the cause of much heated debate, incensed arguments, and possible disfellowshiping. But even if the topic of politics is taboo, we all agree that it's an important part of our every day lives. Everything we do, everything we buy, everything we wish to avoid has to do with politics.

In 1789, the people of France decided to overtake the monarchy of their country in favor of a republic. The French Revolution played out like an echo of the American Revolution of the decade prior, with people rising against their governing bodies. Like the American Revolution, the French Revolution had its dissidents and supporters. Thomas Paine was one such supporter, and Rights of Man was his manifesto in support of people fighting for liberty.

Habiburahman was born in 1979 and raised in a small village in western Burma. When he was 3 years old, the country's military leader declared that his people, the Rohingya, were not one of the 135 recognized ethnic groups that formed the eight national races. He was left stateless in his own country. Since 1982, millions of Rohingya have had to flee their homes as a result of extreme prejudice and persecution. In 2016 and 2017, the government intensified the process of ethnic cleansing, and over 600,000 Rohingya people were forced to cross the border into Bangladesh.

Finding herself embroiled in a Cold War drama on the Island of Cuba, where Soviet and American military forces were vying for supremacy during a secret nuclear confrontation, Paulina decided on a dangerous escape to freedom with her two small children rather than become an obedient slave and an informant for a cruel and rogue tyrannical state.

One of the most ambitious legacies of the 20th century was the universal commitment to ensure freedom from want as a human right. But to what extent are countries across the world living up to this commitment? This path-breaking book develops an innovative, evidence-based index for comparing performance on education, food, health, work, and housing across very differently situated countries and over time. It explores the factors influencing performance and provides empirical evidence to resolve some long standing controversies over the principle of "progressive realization".

This book was published in 1894. It deals with untold accounts of the Underground Railroad. From various states in the South to the Abolitionist Progressives and Quakers in the Northeastern part of the United States. Riots, lynchings, torture, escapes, triumphs, and tragedy are included in this work. Most of these accounts were from primary sources, newspapers, and interviews by former slaves years after their heroic and arduous journeys. It is hard as a Caucasian to understand what it was life to be an African American slave before the American Civil War.

In this diary, the author has penned the various experiences of the people she met during her visit to Croatia. The main theme of this diary is the situation of the citizens, especially women, displaced from the disintegration of the country after the war and clashes in the United Yugoslavia of Eastern Europe in the '90s. The diary talks about if and how women deal with the aftereffects of physical and mental abuse. This is the first true account of the fragmentation of Yugoslavia in Hindi.

In the long history of warfare and cultural and ethnic violence, the 20th century was exceptional for producing institutions charged with seeking accountability or redress for violent offenses and human rights abuses across the globe, often forcing nations to confront the consequences of past atrocities. The Holocaust ended with trials at Nuremberg, apartheid in South Africa concluded with the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, and the Gacaca courts continue to strive for closure in the wake of the Rwandan genocide.

Columbine and Virginia Tech were not good omens. The victims there were unarmed sheep, who hid beneath desks and chairs, simply cowering as they died. They said "Baa" as they were being slaughtered. Something basic to our society has to change. It's time to stand and fight while we still can. And if our politicians tell us we can't protect our children in a daycare center, a post office, or a church, then we show them the door. We vote them out. We recall them. We take out the trash!
