Constance seemingly had it all: born into a wealthy and influential
family; a career as a successful lawyer, love from her husband and
son. But behind this veneer was the stifling pressure to conform to
the boundaries of French society within which she could not be
herself and survive. Playboy traces one woman's transition from
straight lawyer, mother and wife to the buzz-cut and tattooed
lesbian taking the Parisian literary scene by storm. Constance is a
detached narrator as she leads us through the quiet boredom of her
life with her husband Laurent, the betrayal of his affair, the
arrival of her son, and the influence of drugs and alcohol on her
relationship with her family. Unburdened by marital and familial
obligations, a new Constance emerges, free to explore the
complexities of her love for women and herself. An affecting and
compelling chronicle of transgression and the balance of power,
Playboy is an unflinching account of Constance DebrĂŠ's discovery
of bachelorhood. Translated by Holly James
Building upon the growing body of scholarship on the factors and
actors that influence the extent to which states implement human
rights law, this cutting-edge Research Handbook takes an
interdisciplinary approach to exploring the roles of actors within
supranational human rights bodies, the decisions and judgements
they make, and the tools they use to facilitate human rights
implementation. Eminent scholars and practitioners in the field
reflect on why states implement, or fail to implement, obligations
and decisions from the supranational level. The Research Handbook
reviews the relevant terminology, recent trends, and the
theoretical and methodological perspectives and strategies, before
rethinking these explanations and offering original scholarship on
human rights implementation. Chapters then consider the roles and
interplay of various domestic and international actors involved in
human rights implementation, including parliaments, national
courts, civil society and treaty bodies. The Research Handbook
concludes by assessing tools of implementation, including
monitoring systems, the role of negotiations and diplomacy,
compliance hearings, and the use of IT for compliance. Exploring
the entire process of human rights law implementation from
recommendation to execution to follow up, this comprehensive
Research Handbook will be an invaluable resource to students,
scholars and practitioners interested in the decisions and
judgements behind the implementation of human rights law.
Transition and change are part of everyone's life. In the context
of higher education, there are multiple points where students will
undergo transition. This includes the move from secondary and
further education or elsewhere into higher education, where
students move from school or college to university. As students
near the completion of their studies, they must make decisions
about career or further study options, which again necessitates
transition. In addition, different cohorts of students such as
those from a low socio-economic background, international students,
and students facing additional barriers due to gender, ethnicity,
or disability will face further transitions. Many students look
forward to moving on and progressing with their studies and
careers; however, transitions can be challenging, and enhanced
support can ensure continued success for all. Perspectives on
Enhancing Student Transition Into Higher Education and Beyond
supports the various transitions that students entering higher
education face throughout the entire learner journey. This book
brings together best practice examples of how institutions have
enhanced the support offered to address the transition challenges
that students face throughout the learner journey before, through,
and beyond the university environment. Covering topics such as
collaborative teamwork, postgraduate education, and student
engagement, this premier reference source is an excellent resource
for faculty, administrators, professors, educational leaders,
academic advisors, researchers, academicians, and more.
