Book Description

Concebidas para preservar a las generaciones venideras del flagelo de la guerra, las Naciones Unidas han comprendido la trascendental necesidad de participar en el fortalecimiento del Derecho Internacional Humanitario, razón por la que hoy, junto al clásico binomio Derecho de La Haya-Derecho de Ginebra, se añade un tercer elemento: el Derecho de Nueva York. Uno de sus principales impulsores ha sido el Consejo de Seguridad, que desde 1967 ha ido mostrando un gradual interés por el Derecho Internacional Humanitario hasta hacerlo converger tras el final de la guerra fría con el mantenimiento de la paz y la seguridad internacionales (el Capítulo VII de la Carta). En este libro se aborda la práctica del Consejo de Seguridad desde una perspectiva inusual -la del Derecho Internacional Humanitario- y se analiza de forma sistemática qué actividades han contribuido tanto al desarrollo progresivo como a la aplicación efectiva de este sector normativo. Junto a las "luces" de la acción del Consejo --los elementos de progreso- se examinan también los riesgos e incertidumbres que se derivan de su práctica. Ma Teresa Comellas Aguirrezábal es profesora de Derecho Internacional Público y Relaciones Internacionales en la Universidad de Sevilla. Premio Extraordinario de Doctorado en 2003, y Premio Rafael Martínez Emperador, es miembro del grupo de investigación "Derechos Humanos", dirigido por el Profesor Carrillo Salcedo.

Book Description

Shambhala: An Adventure to Find Mysteries by Joy Mondal In the hidden valleys of the Himalayas, tales whispered on the winds speak of the mythical city of Shambhala—a place of eternal peace and unparalleled beauty. For Om, a curious explorer with an insatiable appetite for the unknown, Shambhala becomes more than just a myth—it becomes an obsession. Accompanied by Boby, the love of his life and his guiding light, Om's journey takes them deep into treacherous terrains, through ancient monasteries and forgotten trails. As they unravel the clues leading to this lost city, they stumble upon a revelation far more incredible than either of them had ever imagined. But the journey to Shambhala is not without its challenges. When the skies darken and disaster strikes in the form of the devastating Kedarnath floods, Om and Boby must rely on each other and the strength of their love to survive the merciless wrath of nature. However, as they stand against the odds, the two realize that the search for Shambhala was never just about finding a city—it was about discovering the mysteries of the heart and soul, and the power of love to overcome all adversities. Hold your breath as you delve into this thrilling adventure where myth intertwines with reality, and destiny plays its cards in unpredictable ways. But remember, this story is far from over... Chapter 2 is on the horizon.

Book Description

From the Holocaust in Europe to the military dictatorships of Latin America to the enduring violence of settler colonialism around the world, genocide has been a defining experience of far too many societies. In many cases, the damaging legacies of genocide lead to continued violence and social divisions for decades. In others, however, creative responses to this identity-based violence emerge from the grassroots, contributing to widespread social and political transformation. Resonant Violence explores both the enduring impacts of genocidal violence and the varied ways in which states and grassroots collectives respond to and transform this violence through memory practices and grassroots activism. By calling upon lessons from Germany, Poland, Argentina, and the Indigenous United States, Resonant Violence demonstrates how ordinary individuals come together to engage with a violent past to pave the way for a less violent future.

Book Description

Critical Medical Anthropology presents inspiring work from scholars doing and engaging with ethnographic research in or from Latin America, addressing themes that are central to contemporary Critical Medical Anthropology (CMA). This includes issues of inequality, embodiment of history, indigeneity, non-communicable diseases, gendered violence, migration, substance abuse, reproductive politics and judicialisation, as these relate to health. The collection of ethnographically informed research, including original theoretical contributions, reconsiders the broader relevance of CMA perspectives for addressing current global healthcare challenges from and of Latin America. It includes work spanning four countries in Latin America (Mexico, Brazil, Guatemala and Peru) as well as the trans-migratory contexts they connect and are defined by. By drawing on diverse social practices, it addresses challenges of central relevance to medical anthropology and global health, including reproduction and maternal health, sex work, rare and chronic diseases, the pharmaceutical industry and questions of agency, political economy, identity, ethnicity, and human rights.

Book Description

There is long-standing debate on how population growth affects national economies. A new report from Population Matters examines the history of this debate and synthesizes current research on the topic. The authors, led by Harvard economist David Bloom, conclude that population age structure, more than size or growth per se, affects economic development, and that reducing high fertility can create opportunities for economic growth if the right kinds of educational, health, and labor-market policies are in place. The report also examines specific regions of the world and how their differing policy environments have affected the relationship between population change and economic development.
