Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Law doesn't need to be complicated. However, it is! In addition, ignorance of the law doesn't exempt from responsibility. So why is the law not included as part of the primary education process in this country?Friendly Law wants to change this dynamic as a means to break with the school to prison pipeline, and with many other social injustices and inequalities. And by buying this book, and integrating law as part of a kid's learning process, you can be part of the change too! The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) requires education to enhance the cultural identity, language, and values of the child from which community it emerges. UNESCO suggested in its recommendation on participation in cultural life in 1976 the following: "culture is not merely an accumulation of works and knowledge which an elite produces, collects and conserves in order to place it within the reach of all... [Rather], the concept of culture has been broadened to include all forms of creativity and expression of groups or individuals."Although the United States has signed the UNCRC, it is the only United Nations member state that is not a party to it. However, Friendly Law believes that as the leader of the free world, main driver of both democracy and globalization, and primary guarantor of the current global system, the United States should make a greater effort in making sure the people of the nation knows and understand their rights. Especially the children of the nation! And with this book, we can begin the process!*Proceeds from the book will be used to help Friendly Law to continue working on it's mission and vision.

The author and illustrator bring their personal experience with the UN at all levels to the concise, informative text and whimsical cartoons, describing how the organization is supposed to work, how it actually behaves, and why there s a difference! UNtold reveals the quirks and mysteries of international diplomacy and global decision-making.

Download or read book Would the World Be Better Without the UN written by Thomas G. Weiss and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2018-02-20 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do we need the United Nations? Where would the contemporary world be without its largest intergovernmental organization? And where could it be had the UN’s member states and staff performed better? These fundamental questions are explored by the leading analyst of UN history and politics, Thomas G. Weiss, in this hard-hitting, authoritative book. While counterfactuals are often dismissed as academic contrivances, they can serve to focus the mind; and here, Weiss uses them to ably demonstrate the pluses and minuses of multilateral cooperation. He is not shy about UN achievements and failures drawn from its ideas and operations in its three substantive pillars of activities: international peace and security; human rights and humanitarian action; and sustainable development. But, he argues, the inward-looking and populist movements in electoral politics worldwide make robust multilateralism more not less compelling. The selection of António Guterres as the ninth UN secretary-general should rekindle critical thinking about the potential for international cooperation. There is a desperate need to reinvigorate and update rather than jettison the United Nations in responding to threats from climate change to pandemics, from proliferation to terrorism. Weiss tells you why and how.
