International Humanitarian Law (IHL) is in a state of some turbulence, as a result of, among other things, non-international armed conflicts, terrorist threats and the rise of new technologies. This incisive book observes that while states appear to be reluctant to act as agents of change, informal methods of law-making are flourishing. Illustrating that not only courts, but various non-state actors, push for legal developments, this timely work offers an insight into the causes of this somewhat ambivalent state of IHL by focusing attention on both the legitimacy of law-making processes and the actors involved.
"Malda foi diagnosticada com esquizofrenia e logo foi tida como inapta à convivência social. O ostracismo se sustentou sobre o seu diagnóstico, compreendido como incapacitante. Em uma de suas várias internações, passou a ser atendida por Dante Portofino, um psiquiatra de práticas pouco ortodoxas. Recém-chegado ao Instituto Weingarten, Dante percebe que os pesquisadores dali buscam angariar reconhecimento por meio da escavação da psique humana ao invés de remediar as condições dos internos. Inserido em um contexto repleto de pessoas com objetivos egocêntricos, Dante encanta-se por Malda. Ele passa a dar voz e corpo à sua expressividade e encenar os delírios da paciente de forma irregular e contrária aos protocolos. A partir da percepção da sensibilidade e capacidade de Malda, descrevendo suas indignações acerca da realidade que se apresenta, surge uma chama vanguardista em prol da humanização. Eis a "loucura", sintoma da lucidez individual."
Alors que l'UE célèbre le 20e anniversaire de la "citoyenneté européenne", de nombreuses personnes dans le monde demeurent encore dans une situation de déni de droits de ce point de vue: les apatrides. Ce phénomène structurel et mondial est bien ancré dans le temps. Dépourvus de nationalité et de citoyenneté, ils ont le choix entre rester dans leur pays de naissance sans disposer d'aucune capacité juridique encore moins d'existence légale ou tenter de rejoindre d'autres horizons dans le but justement d'essayer d'y faire valoir des droits parmi les plus élémentaires. Quand une partie de l'humanité refuse soit d'accorder soit de reconnaître à une autre sa part humanité, l'on...
?Smallholder farming plays a central role for the livelihood security of rural families in most low- to middle income countries. Beyond that it contributes to sustain important ecological functions and services. Yet, world-wide, increasing economic pressure threatens its viability, while young and capable labour force is attracted away to urban centres. In the Mexican state of Yucatán - where foremost indigenous Mayan people are practicing traditional farming under adverse natural conditions, using a broad variety of agro-biodiversity - these predominant trends can be observed like in a burning lens. Farming is more and more just performed for subsistence while cash for daily expenses is ob...
