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...

ISBN: 9780415703703 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 364 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. More than 300 million people in over 70 countries make up the world s indigenous populations. Yet despite ever-growing pressures on their lands, environment and way of life through outside factors such as climate change and globalization, their rights in these and other respects are still not fully recognized in international law. In this incisive book, Laura Westra deftly reveals the lethal effects that damage to ecological integrity can have on communities. Using examples in national and international case law, she demonstrates how their lack of sufficient legal rights leaves indigenous...

Faces of State Terrorism
ISBN: 9789004224568 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 18 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Terrorism, a widespread global phenomenon, manifests itself in the actions and the policies of individuals and groups, but also and primarily in the actions and policies of states. Delving into the seldom-discussed question of the motivation for most episodes of terrorism, this book studies terrorism's effects based on the economic and geopolitical imbalances that frame today's global governance. The main goal of terrorism is to induce terror, and perhaps to influence public opinion for political change. Many states hide their terrorist activities under the "faces" they show the world, masks...

Westra asks the questions, 'What does 'integrity' mean?' and 'Is there a moral doctrine that would support both the ideal and the obligation that integrity engenders?'

The Supranational Corporation: Beyond the Multinationals
ISBN: 9789004249103 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 206 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The growth of corporate power has kept pace with and even exceeded the rapid rise of globalization in the past two decades. With it has come the weakening of a nation's ability to hold corporate power in check, and the increasing inability of states to protect the rights of individuals within their national boundaries as a result of the growing number of international legal instruments. 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...

Child Law: Children's Rights and Collective Obligations
ISBN: 9783319381909 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 178 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 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...
