This book brings together several scholars to examine the relationship between guerrilla insurgencies and state building. In essays covering such societies as Mozambique, Algeria, Peru, Malaysia and Sri Lanka the authors show that the rise of guerrilla insurgency can lead states to develop far-reaching programmes of social and economic modernisation or else in some cases to disintegrate from within if the challenge of modernisation proves to be beyond their capacities. The book argues that as the last phase of colonial modernisation of developing states has finished insurgencies increasingly threaten the cohesion of less developed states in a global order in which superpower patronage has largely ended.
Latin America: Its Future in the Global Economy is a timely contribution to the effort to meet the complex challenges of Latin America's increasing participation in world markets. Taking into account the recent changes in the region, twelve economists and two international trade lawyers provide a framework for the analysis of trade negotiations by identifying key points of disagreement among trading partners, and discusses controversial issues such as the environment, labor and agriculture, exceptional protection, investment, services, e-commerce and the efficiency of the dispute settlement mechanism.
"Praise for" "The "Second Edition of Understanding, Assessing, and
Rehabilitating Juvenile Sexual Offenders" showcases Phil Rich's
experience and mastery of the research and clinical literature. In
my view, this is an excellent therapy book and, like its
predecessor, will help practitioners to work effectively and
ethically with juvenile offenders. It is destined to become a
classic." "Phil Rich is considered one of the world's leading authorities
on how best to understand, assess, and treat juvenile sexual
offenders, and this "Second Edition" of his excellent text shows
why he is held in such high regard. All theoreticians, researchers,
and practitioners whose work brings them in contact with juvenile
sexual offenders should definitely read this remarkable
book." "Phil Rich's book, "Understanding, Assessing, and Rehabilitating
Juvenile Sexual Offenders, Second Edition" offers new and
thought-provoking ideas, updates, and information, especially on
developmental pathways. This book is one of the few publications on
juvenile sexual offending that offers something new and revealing
to the field." "Phil Rich masterfully fills the gap in the juvenile sexual
offender treatment literature with a book that is neither
introductory nor narrowly specialized. Seasoned veterans will
appreciate his thoughtful and studied approach. Newcomers will find
this book a vital go-to resource." "Mind-blowingly brilliant--Rich by name and rich in depth,
detail, description, and debate. An instant classic,
"Understanding, Assessing, and Rehabilitating Juvenile Sexual
Offenders, Second Edition" is both comprehensive and challenging
with its material and messages, yet reassuringly accessible and
practical." THE LANDMARK TEXT FOR WORKING WITH JUVENILE SEXUAL OFFENDERS AND UNDERSTANDING SEXUALLY ABUSIVE BEHAVIOR IN CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS--NOW FULLY REVISED Thoroughly revised, the "Second Edition" of "Understanding, Assessing, and Rehabilitating Juvenile Sexual Offenders" guides mental health professionals through the breadth of assessment and intervention methods available for working with this special population, providing a succinct yet complete survey of the field, the etiological development of sexually abusive behavior in juveniles, and a reliable resource for assessment, treatment, and rehabilitation.
Latin America: It's Future in the Global Economy is a timely contribution to the effort to meet the complex challenges entailed in Latin America's increasing participation in world markets. Taking into account the recent changes in the region and a future WTO conference, twelve economists and two international trade lawyers provide a framework for the analysis of trade negotiations by identifying key points of disagreement among trading partners, and discuss controversial issues such as the environment, labour and agriculture, exceptional protection, investment, services, e-commerce and the efficiency of the dispute settlement mechanism. The contributors identify the optimum approach for Latin America to take in protecting its interests and enhancing its advantages in global trade, and assess the various tools that negotiators might use during the forthcoming round of multilateral negotiations. They make concrete recommendations concerning trade strategy, policy, implementation and management together with suggestions as to how Latin America and other developing countries can increase their bargaining power in order to deal with new circumstances as they arise.
In work with juvenile sexual offenders, it has become increasingly common to link disturbed or under-developed early attachment relationships to the later development of pathology. Beginning with a detailed and critical overview of attachment theory, "Attachment and Sexual Offending" provides an analysis of research that links attachment theory to sexually abusive behavior in children and adolescents. This complete guide also extensively covers literature that relates attachment to adult sexual offending. A comprehensive framework for applying attachment theory to the treatment of juvenile sexual offenders is also included, providing steps for developing and implementing attachment treatment. This important text will appeal to anyone interested in attachment theory and its application to clinical and forensic psychology. It is a valuable resource for professionals working with sexually abusive juveniles in a range of clinical settings, and will also be of interest to those working with adult sexual offenders. "This is a fascinating and important book" ""Attachment and Sexual Offending" is a thought provoking book
that challenges the traditional ways in which we have thought
about, assessed and treated juvenile sexual abusers. Phil Rich's
book is brilliant and should be read by any professional who works
with, and/or comes in contact with, juveniles who sexually
abuse." ""Attachment and Sexual Offending" is a must for anybody working
in the field, as well as for those who want to know more about this
area."
