The 13th Girl
Dee knows what it's like to be accused of something you didn't do. So when young women go missing in her English town, she resolves to prove the innocence of the man falsely accused and track down the real killer. After spending decades in a mental health hospital, Dee knows that people find her creepy. They tell her so. Once the reluctant star of an infamous documentary, she is trying to blend back into the outside world. But when a string of local girls disappear, only to be found dead days later, she becomes fixated on the case and decides to film her own true crime documentary. There is a serial killer on the loose—the Righteous Wraith. Girls are being found one by one, their bodies gruesomely staged in innocent public spaces. With the killer taunting the police and the public's fear mounting, the armchair detectives begin pointing fingers at one suspect. But for Dee, something isn't adding up. She knows what it's like to be accused of something that you didn't do. She resolves to prove his innocence, unmask the real killer, and save the 13th girl. But who will believe her?
Sirens: Collected Papers on Women in Fantasy 2012-2015
Sirens: Collected Papers on Women in Fantasy 2012-2015 combines written versions of presentations from four years of Sirens, a conference on women in fantasy literature. During those years, presenters were encouraged to analyze tales retold, hauntings, and rebels and revolutionaries, among other topics. Presentations for Sirens were chosen by vetting boards made up of scholars, professionals, and readers. Following each year's conference, presenters were invited to submit text versions of their presentations for the Sirens compendium, and a sample of each year's programming is represented.
Unilateral Sanctions in International Law
This is the first book that explores whether there are any rules in international law applicable to unilateral sanctions and if so, what they are. The book examines both the lawfulness of unilateral sanctions and the limitations within which they should operate. In doing so, it includes an analysis of State practice, the provisions of various international legal instruments dealing with such sanctions and their impact on other areas of international law such as freedom of navigation, aviation and transit, and the principles of international trade, investment, regional economic integration, and the protection of human rights and the environment. This study finds that unilateral sanctions by a...
Human Rights and the UN Universal Periodic Review Mechanism
The Universal Periodic Review (UPR) is a peer-review mechanism, reviewing all 193 UN Member States’ protection and promotion of human rights. After ten years of the existence of the UPR mechanism, this collection examines the effectiveness of the UPR, theoretical and conceptual debates about its modus operandi, and the lessons that can be drawn across different regions/states to identify possible improvements. The book argues that despite its limitations, the UPR mechanism with its inclusive, cooperative, and collaborative framework, is an important human rights mechanism with the potential to evolve over time into an effective cooperative tool for monitoring human rights implementation. D...
Translation and Decolonisation
Translation and Decolonisation: Interdisciplinary Approaches offers compelling explorations of the pivotal role that translation plays in the complex and necessarily incomplete process of decolonisation. In a world where translation has historically been a tool of empire and colonisation, this collection shines the spotlight on the potential for translation to be a driving force in decolonial resistance. The book bridges the divide between translation studies and the decolonial turn in the social sciences and humanities, revealing the ways in which translation can challenge colonial imaginaries, institutions, and practice, and how translation opens up South-to-South conversations. It brings ...
Union and Disunion in the Nineteenth Century
This volume examines the nineteenth century not only through episodes, institutions, sites and representations concerned with union, concord and bonds of sympathy, but also through moments of secession, separation, discord and disjunction. Its lens extends from the local and regional, through to national and international settings in Britain, Europe and the United States. The contributors come from the fields of cultural history, literary studies, American studies and legal history.
