Child Law: Children's Rights and Collective Obligations
ISBN: 9783319381909 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 178 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Child Law starts with the question "Who is the Child?" In direct contrast to the CRC, which calls for putting the interests of the child first in all policies dealing with children, it appears that the interests of others are the major consideration de facto. In law, children's right to protection is severely limited by the presence of a maximum age limit, with no consideration of the starting point: current and ongoing scientific research has demonstrated the effects of this non-consideration in a number of abnormalities and diseases, not only in children, but in adults and the elderly. The...

Revolt Against Authority
ISBN: 9789004268203 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 278 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Protesters and mass demonstrations by citizens of many democratic countries are increasingly daily occurrences reported in today's news media. These protests are often considered to be illegal or are charged with disrupting the peace, and even when they are non-violent assemblies they are attacked by police and riot squads called in to disperse the protesters. Through a careful review of opposition to injustice, this book demonstrates that most often these protests and demonstrations are in support of and defend moral and legal principles that their democratic governments have forgotten to...

Environmental Justice and the Rights of Ecological Refugees
ISBN: 9780415703666 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Climate change and other environmental problems are increasingly leading to the displacement of populations from their homelands, whether through drought, flooding, famine or other causes. Worse, there is currently no protection in international law for people made refugees by such means. Following on from her previous explorations of environmental justice as it relates to future generations and indigenous peoples, Laura Westra now turns her attention to the plight of ecological refugees. In Part I, Westra provides an overview of what defines an ecological refugee and their present...

The Role of Integrity in the Governance of the Commons: Governance, Ecology, Law, Ethics
ISBN: 9783319543918 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This book explores the impact of disintegrity on various aspects of governance, as the disregard of ecological conditions produce grave direct effects to human rights (to water or food) and, indirectly, also to human security in several ways. International legal regimes need to be reconsidered and perhaps re-interpreted, in order to correct these situations that affect the commons today.
Some believe that our starting point should acknowledge the impact we already have on the natural world, and accept that we now live in the "anthropocene." Others think that the present emphasis on... This book explores the impact of disintegrity on various aspects of governance, as the disregard of ecological conditions produce grave direct effects...

The Greeks and the Environment
ISBN: 9780847684465 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Environmental ethicists have frequently criticized ancient Greek philosophy as anti-environmental for a view of philosophy that is counterproductive to environmental ethics and a view of the world that puts nature at the disposal of people. This provocative collection of original essays reexamines the views of nature and ecology found in the thought of Plato, Aristotle, the Stoics, and Plotinus. Recognizing that these thinkers were not confronted with the environmental degradation that threatens contemporary philosophers, the contributors to this book find that the Greeks nevertheless provide...

The Supranatural Corporation: Beyond the Multinationals
ISBN: 9781608463824 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 210 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This work lays bare corporate actions both domestic and international, under the guise of legal -personhood, - and shows how corporations flaunt laws and act as controlling powers beyond the constraints imposed on legal state citizens. Using international vehicles like the WTO and NAFTA, corporate collective power effectively supersedes the constitutional mandate of nation states.

Human Rights: The Commons and the Collective
ISBN: 9780774821186 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. International law evolved to protect human rights. But what are human rights? Does the term have the same meaning in a world being transformed by climate change and globalized trade? Are existing laws sufficient to ensure humanity's survival? Westra argues that international law privileges individual over collective rights, permitting multinational corporations to overlook the collectivity and the environment in their quest for wealth. Unless policy makers redefine human rights and reformulate environmental law to protect the preconditions for life itself - water, food, clean air, and...

This innovative book takes a new look at environmental ethics and the need for ecological and biological integrity. Laura Westra explores the necessity for radical alteration not only of interpersonal ethics, but also of social institutions and public policy. In the process, Westra denies the validity of majority rule in environmentally ethical concerns. Issues discussed in the book include the link between ecological integrity and human health; an environmental evaluation of business and technology; biotechnology and transgenics in agriculture and aquaculture; and the environmental ethics of...

On Hunger: Science, Ethics and Law
ISBN: 9781627346825 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 282 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. On Hunger focuses on the interface between food and public health and on the flawed regulations intended to protect us. Food not only represents nourishment for the body; it also possesses other valuable aspects that are protected by international legal instruments. Westra argues for the importance of effecting radical changes: to protect and improve the present system of food production and distribution. Starting from several reports produced by the FAO and the WHO, Westra argues for the need of a complete and radical re-evaluatio of current practices and systems in order to meet the...

From the first appearance of the term in law in the Clean Water Act of 1972 (US), ecological integrity has been debated by a wide range of researchers, including biologists, ecologists, philosophers, legal scholars, doctors and epidemiologists, whose joint interest was the study and understanding of ecological/biological integrity from various standpoints and disciplines. This volume discusses the need for ecological integrity as a major guiding principle in a variety of policy areas, to counter the present ecological and economic crises with their multiple effects on human rights. ...From the first appearance of the term in law in the Clean Water Act of 1972 (US), ecological integrity has been debated by a wide range of research... |

Globalization, Violence and World Governance
ISBN: 9789004201330 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In this work Laura Westra draws our attention to the failure of international law to promote and protect the rights of society in the face of the ravages of neoliberal agendas in an era of globalization. This book outlines how international law is perhaps a misnomer, and at its core there is a great distance between laws as they are written and laws as they are implemented. Each chapter in this volume peels back the illusions of laws as instruments designed to protect the public welfare, and shows how the intersection of globalization and neoliberal democracy has stripped people of their...
