Human Rights at the Crossroads (9780199376414)

Since the end of the Cold War, there has been a dramatic expansion in both the international human rights system and the transnational networks of activists, development organizations, and monitoring agencies that partially reinforce it. Yet despite or perhaps because of this explosive growth, the multiple statuses of human rights remain as unsettled as ever. Human Rights at the Crossroads brings together preeminent and emerging voices within human rights studies to think creatively about problems beyond their own disciplines, and to critically respond to what appear to be intractable problems within human rights theory and practice. This book includes essays that rethink the ideas surrounding human rights and dignity, human rights and state interests in citizenship and torture, the practice of human rights in politics, genocide, and historical re-writing, and the anthropological and medical approaches to human rights. Human Rights at the Crossroads provides an integrative and interdi...

Eat, Pray, Love : One Woman's Search for Everything (9780747585664)

It's 3 a.m. and Elizabeth Gilbert is sobbing on the bathroom floor. She's in her thirties, she has a husband, a house, they're trying for a baby - and she doesn't want any of it. A bitter divorce and a turbulent love affair later, she emerges battered and bewildered and realises it is time to pursue her own journey in search of three things she has been missing: pleasure, devotion and balance. So she travels to Rome, where she learns Italian from handsome, brown-eyed identical twins and gains twenty-five pounds, an ashram in India, where she finds that enlightenment entails getting up in the middle of the night to scrub the temple floor, and Bali where a toothless medicine man of indeterminate age offers her a new path to peace: simply sit still and smile. And slowly happiness begins to creep up on her. Product details Format ...

To Kill A Mockingbird (9781784752637)

'ONE OF THE GREATEST AMERICAN NOVELS EVER WRITTEN' 'Shoot all the bluejays you want, if you can hit 'em, but remember it's a sin to kill a mockingbird.' A lawyer's advice to his children as he defends the real mockingbird of Harper Lee's classic novel - a black man falsely charged with the rape of a white girl. Through the young eyes of Scout and Jem Finch, Harper Lee explores with exuberant humour the irrationality of adult attitudes to race and class in the Deep South of the 1930s. The conscience of a town steeped in prejudice, violence and hypocrisy is pricked by the stamina of one man's struggle for justice. But the weight of history will only tolerate so much. To Kill a Mockingbird is a coming-of-age story, an anti-racist novel, a historical drama of the Great Depression and a sublime example of the Southern writing tradition. Product details ...

Ach, Harmonistan : Deutsche Zustände (9783813503845)

Thea Dorn gehört zu den wenigen Publizistinnen in Deutschland, die gesellschaftliche Debatten auslösen und mitbestimmen. In ihren teils polemischen, teils nachdenklichen Einmischungen liest sie der ebenso verzagten wie ideenlosen Berliner Republik die Leviten. Ob Rauchverbot, Energiesparlampen oder Gesundheitsvorsorge wo bleiben Selbstverantwortung und eigenständiges Denken, fragt Thea Dorn. Ist unser Land auf dem Weg zum "Kindergarten State", wo Mutti Staat uns auch noch die Butterstulle schmiert? Die Liebe zur Freiheit, die Kraft und der Wille, das Individuum zu verteidigen, sind jedenfalls erlahmt. Die heute 40-Jährigen wissen nicht, wie sie jenseits der Spießigkeit "erwachsen" werden sollen und die Geschlechter können sich nicht entscheiden, ob sie zu neuen Ufern aufbrechen oder sich alten Rollenmustern hingeben sollen. Unsere Medien rufen jeden Monat den nächsten Weltuntergang aus, während der deutsche Michel auf seiner Dachterrasse Friedenstauben züchtet. Haup...

Teufels Tag (9783550050459)

"Eine beeindruckend ungemütliche Lektüre." Times Literary Supplement Viel hat sich nicht verändert, seit John das kleine Tal in den englischen Endlands verlassen hat, um als Lehrer in der Stadt zu leben. Noch immer werden jeden Herbst die Schafe aus dem Moorland zusammengetrieben und noch immer begeht man den Devil's Day. Für die Kinder sind die Rituale und Feierlichkeiten ein großer Spaß, die Älteren wissen noch, was im Jahre 1913 passiert ist, als man den Teufel einmal nicht davongejagt hat. Erst kam ein Blizzard, dann fuhr der Teufel in Mensch und Tier, ließ die Alten an blutigem Husten ersticken und Jüngere erfrieren. Zuletzt war Johns Großvater für die Einhaltung der Bräuche zuständig, doch jetzt ist er tot. Als John mit seiner schwangeren Ehefrau zur Beerdigung anreist, steht der Devil's Day kurz bevor und merkwürdige Vorfälle häufen sich. "Der neue Meister des Bedrohlichen. Dieser gruselige Nachfolger von Loney unterstreicht, dass sein Autor jemand ist, d...

Caruso and Tetrazzini on the Art of Singing (1511730749)

Caruso and Tetrazzini on the Art of Singing is a classic opera singing instruction text by Enrico Caruso and Luisa Tetrazzini.
