Download or read book A Man of Honor the Life and Death of Yuba Kasai written by Muzaffar A. Isani and published by Partridge Publishing. This book was released on 2016-05-20 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yuba, a lowly butcher from the backwaters of society, leaves his village in the boondocks and moves to the big city. However, the move is not of his free will. He has committed an uncommon act that creates the compulsion to relocate, an act precipitated by inherent flaws of character. In any event, the move proves to be auspicious as he reaches the pinnacle of success, acquiring great wealth and a position of high respect in society. In the meantime, his past has remained concealed through his long ascent, during which period he has also managed to suppress the more vulgar traits of his character. Both, the uncommon act of his past and the vulgar traits of his character, surface at an inopportune time in his life with catastrophic results. The tragic story of a powerful man ruined by innate flaws of character is not only a fascinating indictment of the frailty of human disposition, it also lays bare the extreme ambiguity of communal values in certain societies. The premise is simple but thought-provoking.

Download or read book Taxation of Foreign Business Income Within the European Internal Market written by Jérôme Monsenego and published by IBFD. This book was released on 2012 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rules of the Member States on the taxation of the foreign business income of companies, whether such rules are based on the fiscal principle of territoriality or on the principle of worldwide taxation, are in conflict with the objective of achievement of the internal market. This objective is indeed difficult to reach when it comes to the taxation of foreign income, given that the Member States are far from taxing companies doing business cross-border as if their operations were purely domestic. Areas of conflict include particularly the taxation of foreign profits, the deduction of foreign losses, the elimination of international double taxation and the attribution of profits to permanent establishments. This dissertation analyses this conflict on the basis of a study of the case law of the European Court of Justice as well as some of the key provisions of the European treaties. It appears that both the fiscal principle of territoriality and the principle of worldwide taxation give rise to complex issues of compatibility with the law of the European Union. Although the analysis conducted throughout the dissertation provides some guidance for the taxation of the foreign business income of companies, it is concluded that the Court cannot, by itself, efficiently resolve the conflict between such taxation and the objective of achievement of the internal market.

Download or read book In Pursuit of Orphan Excellence written by Philip Darke and published by . This book was released on 2014-04 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can we love with excellence the millions of orphaned and vulnerable children in our world who have lost their parents, have no relatives to love them well, and likely will not be adopted? In Pursuit of Orphan Excellence frames a conversation around this question through a collaborative effort involving fifteen authors from orphan care organizations around the world, bringing to the table an often-neglected component of orphan care. After discussing why everyone in the world, Christian and non-Christian alike, should care to the core about caring for orphans, In Pursuit examines a framework-from family to spiritual formation (and a whole lot in between)-of what excellent, best-practice orphan care looks like in situations where kinship care, legal adoption, quality foster care, or reunification with biological family is not possible, feasible, or likely to occur. As you read this book, you will be invited to learn from others seeking best-practice orphan care, engage in the conversation, and advocate for orphans around the world . . . and in your own backyard.

Download or read book Yankee Samurai written by Joseph Daniel Harrington and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author Joseph D. Harrington has written an informative and insightful history of the Nisei (Second-generation Japanese Americans), working for the U.S. armed forces in the Pacific during World War II. This is no whitewashed narrative, as it exposes U.S. internment camps, prejudices, and the frustrations of patriotic Japanese-Americans who wanted to fight for their country, but were initially rebuffed. As the book relates, not all Nisei were in favor of fighting, and even those that did encountered another kind of prejudice at first, from Hawaiian-born Nisei who more than occasionally felt that continental Japanese-Americans just didn't measure up, linguistically-speaking. Like other children of immigrants, the Nisei were, to a large extent, caught between Japanese tradition and U.S. culture. The concept of honor, an essential element in Japanese-American family life, ended up serving U.S. military interests well. The author has done an outstanding job of uncovering names and telling little-known stories. Especially fascinating are the ones that describe the analytical acumen of Nisei translators.

Download or read book Deporting our Souls written by Bill Ong Hing and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013-05-20 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past three decades, images of undocumented immigrants pouring across the southern border have driven the immigration debate and policies have been implemented in response to those images. The Oklahoma City bombings and the tragic events of September 11, both of questionable relevance to immigration policy have provided further impetus to implement strategies that are anti-immigration in design and effect. This book discusses the major immigration policy areas - undocumented workers, the immigration selection system, deportation of aggravated felons, national security and immigration policy, and the integration of new Americans - and the author suggests his own proposals on how to address the policy challenges from a perspective that encourages us to consider the moral consequences of our decisions. The author also reviews some of the policies that have been put forth and ignored and suggests new policies that would be good for the country economically and socially.
