The purpose of this short handbook is to prepare God's people for
the spiritual battles that are facing all of us, and the world
itself, in these Last Days. Using Psalm 101, the author shows
readers that God, both in David's time as well as our own day,
intends Christians to be spiritually involved, in their daily
circumstances, through intercessory prayer against evil spiritual
forces. However, the author draws his message from every corner of
the Bible, demonstrating that the precepts for successful spiritual
warfare are pervasive throughout the Word, timeless.
Across Europe, millions of immigrants, refugees, and asylum-seekers
have often had difficulties fitting into their new societies. Most
analysts have laid the blame on a clash of cultures. Becoming
Europe provides evidence that institutions matter more than culture
in determining the shape of ethnic relations. Patrick Ireland
argues that it is incorrect blithely to anticipate unavoidable
conflict between Muslim immigrants and European host societies.
Noting similarities in the structure of the welfare states in
Germany, the Netherlands, and Belgium - as well as in their
respective North African and Turkish immigrant communities - he
compares national- and city-level developments to show how
approaches toward immigrant settlement have diverged widely and
evolved over time. Becoming Europe demonstrates how policymakers
have worked hard to balance immigrants' claims to distinct
traditions with demands for equal treatment. Ultimately, it reveals
a picture of people learning by doing, in the day-to-day activities
that shape how communities come together and break apart.
Dialogues on Migration Policy brings together leading American and
European scholars of immigration politics to address migration
policy. Editors Marco Giugni and Florence Passy's aim to present a
number of informed "dialogues" addressing three main theoretical
concerns in this field: the role of the national state in a
globalizing world, the determinants of policy change, and the role
of collective interests in migration policy. Adopting an
unconventional format, the novelty of Dialogues on Migration Policy
lies in the fact that it is structured around a series of debates
among authors. In each debate, expert contributors working in
different theoretical traditions and with divergent views on the
subject matter confront each other followed by a commentary from a
leading scholar based on her/his reading of these authors' views.
These lively debates are certain to engage scholars of migration,
political science, and sociology.
