Contemporary Human Rights Challenges - The Universal Declaration of Human Rights and its Continuing Relevance (Paperback):... Contemporary Human Rights Challenges - The Universal Declaration of Human Rights and its Continuing Relevance (Paperback)
Carla Ferstman, Tony Gray
R1,287 Discovery Miles 12 870 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) was drafted by the UN Commission on Human Rights in the aftermath of the World War II in an attempt to address the wrongs of the past and plan for a better future for all. With contributions from President Jimmy Carter, UNESCO Secretary General Audrey Azoulay and the former Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams, this collection of essays, Contemporary Human Rights Challenges: The Universal Declaration of Human Rights and its Continuing Relevance, by leading international experts offers a timely contemporary view on the UDHR and its continuing relevance to today's issues. Reflecting the structure of the UDHR, the chapters, written by 28 academics, practitioners and activists, bring a contemporary perspective to the original principles proclaimed in the Declaration's 30 Articles. It will be a stimulating accessible read, with real world examples, for anyone involved in thinking about, designing or applying public policy, particularly government officials, politicians, lawyers, journalists and academics and those engaged in promoting social justice. Examined through these universal principles, which have enduring relevance, the authors grapple with some of today's most pressing challenges, some of which, for example equality and gender related rights, would not have been foreseen by the original drafters of the Declaration, who included Eleanor Roosevelt, Rene Cassin and John Humphrey. The essays cover a wide range of topics such as an individual's right to privacy in a digital age, freedom to practise one's religion and the right to redress, and make a compelling and detailed argument for the on-going importance and significance of the Declaration and human rights in our rapidly changing world.

After a daring escape, Marcus has many adventures working with the Hun army as a mercenary. Throughout this harrowing journey, Marcus learns about Chinese philosophies, uncovering the startling similarities between these philosophies and those of Greece.

Deputy Chief Constable sam Dillon - disillusioned by the politics of policing and drawing towards the end of his career - is appointed Commissioner of Police of the small Caribeean island of Avariss. When he and his wife, Annie, leave England and arrive on the island they soon experience some of the problems and peculiarities of working in a different environment and having to deal with - as he sees it - strange behaviours, attitudes and customs. Meanwhile a dark character in the shadows is stalking his victims.
Whilst Dillon is coping with his new job a series of violent rapes takes place but, despite all the police enquiries, the investigation proves fruitless and the officers are baffled. Dillon and his detectives grow more concerned and frustrated.
Even though the island suffers other dramatic events - a hurricane and a major fraud, leading to the collapse of one of the island's banks - the rapist continues to stalk and claim his victims.
When a suspect is arrested it seems that the case is solved, but when the mysterious rapist strikes again the hunt has to begin anew and the island's women become more fearful.
On a night in November the rapist strikes yet again and, this time, the police are close enough to surprise and pursue him. After a dramatic chase over land and sea he is arrested and his identity surprisingly revealed.
