Buku ini berusaha mengungkapkan berbagai sudut pandang terhadap kasus atau peristiwa seputar HAM, yang terkait aneka aspek di berbagai belahan dunia. Dewasa ini, masih banyak ditemukan kasus mengenai pelanggaran HAM (Hak Asasi Manusia). Baik dalam lingkup nasional maupun internasional. Hak-hak dasar seperti hak untuk hidup, keamanan, kebebasan masih belum sepenuhnya didapatkan oleh sebagian masyarakat secara layak.

Sebagai buah karya tulis ilmiah besar harapan kami bahwa buku ini dapat menambah wawasan bagi para pembaca di berbagai kalangan, akademisi maupun umum, terkait eksistensi isu-isu HAM di dunia. Terlepas dari itu semua, kami meyadari sepenuhnya bahwa masih ada keterbatasan dalam buku ini. Sehingga kami terbuka untuk segala diskusi lebih lanjut mengenai buku ini. Semoga buku ini dapat bermanfaat untuk khalayak ramai, dan dapat dinikmati oleh mereka yang peduli dengan eksistensi penegakan HAM di berbagai ranah kehidupan manusia, di berbagai belahan dunia.
A New York Times Bestseller! Amal has big dreams, until a nightmarish encounter . . . Twelve-year-old Amal's dream of becoming a teacher one day is dashed in an instant when she accidentally insults a member of her Pakistani village's ruling family. As punishment for her behavior, she is forced to leave her heartbroken family behind and go work at their estate. Amal is distraught but has faced setbacks before. So she summons her courage and begins navigating the complex rules of life as a servant, with all its attendant jealousies and pecking-order woes. Most troubling, though, is Amal's increasing awareness of the deadly measures the Khan family will go to in order to stay in control. It's clear that their hold over her village will never loosen as long as everyone is too afraid to challenge them--so if Amal is to have any chance of ensuring her loved ones' safety and winning back her freedom, she must find a way to work with the other servants to make it happen.

Gender equality and environmental goals are mutually reinforcing, with slow progress on environmental actions affecting the achievement of gender equality, and vice versa. Progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) requires targeted and coherent actions. However, complementarities and trade-offs between gender equality and environmental sustainability are scarcely documented within the SDG framework. Based on the SDG framework, this report provides an overview of the gender-environment nexus, looking into data and evidence gaps, economic and well-being benefits, and governance and justice aspects. It examines nine environment-related SDGs (2, 6, 7, 9, 11, 12 and 15) through a ...
Integrating literature in education, especially in language learning, is indispensable. Not only that literature enables students to gain competence in a particular area of knowledge, it also nurtures their compassion and conscience, developing them into whole human beings.

This open access book applies for the first time emerging concepts of socioeconomics to analyse an economic sector, namely agriculture. It considers the rational choices of all actors in the system (just as agricultural economists do) and their cultural preferences and constraints (just as rural sociologists do). Socioeconomic concepts are subsequently used to structure agricultural issues with regard to the three governance mechanisms (hierarchy, markets, and cooperation), and different agricultural systems are presented and compared. The book will be of interest to social scientists with various backgrounds, and seeks to break down the barriers of single-disciplinary thinking.
