The Individualization of War Rights, Liability, and Accountability in Contemporary Armed Conflict [Audiobook]
Free Download Jennifer Welsh - editor, Dapo Akande - editor, David Rodin - editor, Rick Adamson (Narrator), "The Individualization of War: Rights, Liability, and Accountability in Contemporary Armed Conflict"
English | ASIN: B0CWLW3ZS9 | 2024 | MP3@64 kbps | ~11:17:00 | 320 MB
The rights and responsibilities of the individual are at the center of today's armed conflicts in a way that they have never been before. This process of "individualization," which challenges the primacy of the sovereign state, is driven by normative developments related to human rights that have elevated human-centric conceptions of security and created a new class of international crimes, as well as by technological and strategic developments that can both empower individuals as military actors and enable either the targeting or protection of particular individuals.
The Individualization of War examines the status of individuals in contemporary armed conflict in three main capacities: as subject to violence but deserving of protection; as liable to harm because of their responsibility for attacks on others; and as agents who can be held accountable for the perpetration of crimes. This book presents a novel conceptualization of the phenomenon of individualization, including how it is both practiced and contested. It then convenes a set of leading thinkers from the fields of moral philosophy, international law, and international relations to further our understanding of not only how individualization is manifest in armed conflict-in theory and in practice-but also how it generates tensions and challenges for today's scholars and practitioners.

Young People's Human Rights and the Politics of Voting Age (2024)
Free Download Sonja C. Grover, "Young People's Human Rights and the Politics of Voting Age"
English | 2010 | pages: 267 | ISBN: 9048189624, 9400733712 | PDF | 2,6 mb
Young People's Human Rights and The Politics of Voting Age explores the broader societal implications of voting age eligibility requirements and the legislative bar against youth voting in North America and in Commonwealth countries (where 'youth' is defined as persons 16 and over but under age 18). The issue is raised as to whether the denial of the youth vote undermines democratic principles and values and ultimately the human dignity of youth. This is the first book to address the topic of the youth vote in-depth as a fundamental human rights concern relating to the entitlement in a democracy to societal participation and inclusion in influencing policy and law which profoundly affects one's life. Also examined are international perspectives on the issue of voting age eligibility. The book would be extremely valuable for instructional purposes as one of the primary texts in undergraduate or graduate courses on children's human rights, political psychology, political science , sociology of law or society and as a supplementary text for courses on human rights or constitutional law and would be of interest also to members of the general public concerned with children's human rights issues.

Transgender Rights and Politics Groups, Issue Framing, and Policy Adoption
Free Download Transgender Rights and Politics: Groups, Issue Framing, and Policy Adoption By Jami K. Taylor; Donald P. Haider-Markel (eds.)
2014 | 303 Pages | ISBN: 0472052357 | PDF | 11 MB
To date, media and scholarly attention to gay politics and policy has focused on the morality debates over sexual orientation and the legal aspects of rights for non-heterosexuals. However, transgender concerns as such have received little attention. As transgender activism has become more visible, policymakers, both in the United States and around the world, have begun to respond to demands for more equitable treatment.Jami K. Taylor and Donald P. Haider-Markel bring together new research employing the concepts and tools of political science to explore the politics of transgender rights. Volume contributors address the framing of transgender rights in the U.S. and in Latin America. They discuss transgender interest groups, the inclusion of transgender activists in advocacy coalitions, policy diffusion at the state and local levels, and, importantly, the implementation of transgender public policy. This volume sets the standard for empirical research on transgender politics and demonstrates that the study of this topic can contribute to the understanding of larger questions in the field of political science.

English | ISBN: 1529231000 | 2023 | 202 pages | PDF | 8 MB
The French version of this book was the winner of the 2022 Grand Prix de la Protection Sociale. Over the years many disability-related rights have been legally recognized, but how has this changed the everyday lives of people with disabilities? Drawing on biographical interviews collected from individuals with mobility or visual impairments in France, this book analyses the reception of disability policies in the fields of education, employment, social rights and accessibility. It examines to what extent these policies contribute to the realization of associated rights among disabled people. The book demonstrates that the rights associated with disability suffer from major implementation flaws, while shedding light on the very active role of disabled citizens in the realization of their rights.
