Download or read book Switzerland and the International Protection of Refugees La Suisse et la protection internationale des refugi s written by Vera Gowlland-Debbas and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-10-18 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present volume highlights the new challenges of the international protection of refugees fifty years after the adoption of the 1951 Geneva Convention relating to the Status of Refugees. Focusing on the problems faced by Switzerland in the field of international protection of refugees as well as on the specificity of its asylum law and practice, this publication addresses the refugee problem from a national, European and international perspective. The Swiss experience serves to illustrate the wider problematic of on the one hand, the tensions between security, political and humanitarian concerns encountered by refugee-receiving states, and on the other, the need to preserve an international refugee protection regime which remains an essential component of international law and relations for so long as political solutions are not brought to the root causes of refugee exodus. This reflection on the international protection of refugees is organized around four main themes. The first examines Switzerland's response in the past to mass influx, in the light of historical case studies and the evolution of Swiss asylum law and practice. The second focuses on the question of access of refugees to asylum territories and refugee status determination procedures within the framework of the 1951 Convention on the Status of Refugees and the current Swiss asylum law. The third centres on the wider protection regime currently being forged in Europe to address a broader category of refugees, including solutions for temporary and subsidiary protection. The final theme revolves around return of refugees, including those under the Dayton and recent Kosovo agreements and covers reintegration of returnees, assistance and long-term development. This work is based on papers presented at a colloquium of the Graduate Institute of the International Studies in Geneva which was organised in collaboration with the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees as a contribution to the 50th anniversaries of the UNHCR and the Geneva Convention relating to the Status of Refugees.

Download or read book Political Responsibility for a Globalised World written by Ernst Wolff and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2014-04-30 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this book is to reflect on the complex practice of responsibility within the context of a globalised world and contemporary means of action. Levinas' exploration of the ethical serves as point of entry and is shown to be seeking inter-cultural political relevance through engagement with the issues of postcoloniality and humanism. Yet, Levinas fails to realise the ethical implications of the inevitable instrumental mediation between ethical meaning and political practice. With recourse to Weber, Apel and Ricoeur, Ernst Wolff proposes a theory of strategic co-responsibility for the uncertain global context of practice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La quatrième de couverture indique : "Beaucoup de penseurs revendiquent l'irréductibilité, l'opposition parfois, du judaïsme aux idéologies gréco-occidentales de l'Etat. Voici sans conteste possible le premier d'entre eux par la rigueur des formulations, Emmanuel Lévinas. Le plus silencieux aussi, sans doute parce qu'il connaît la cruauté et le caractère irrécusable de son unique pensée. Le seul capable de ranimer l'esprit de prophétie contre la Révolution même et, par la discrétion soutenue qu'il oppose à toute prise de position sensationnelle, de forcer le destin de la philosophie contemporaine : autre chose qui lui imprimer un "tournant" supplémentaire. L'homme moderne, cet être qui ne sait s'il habite sur un tas de ruines ou bien sur un volcan, trouvera chez ce penseur extrême et incommode la médecine un peu rude qui le réveillera de son sommeil politique, des songes et des conseils qu'il cherche d'ordinaire du côté des charlatans. Pour célébrer la PENSEE JALOUSE de ce philosophe qui dit que la paix est humiliation de l'Etat et qu'elle est plus sainte que la guerre, d'autres penseurs, ni élèves en mal de maître, ni anciens partisans en mal de bannière nouvelle, se réunissent ici pour lui offrir des écrits suscités par son oeuvres. Ce livre servira donc aussi d'introduction à celle-ci, une introduction libre et méditée. Ces textes ont été suscités et rassemblés dans le but de faire partager au plus large public de langue française, mais particulièrement aux universitaires, l'admiration que leurs auteurs portent à un philosophe qui est l'un des tout premiers de ce temps et dont les questions comme les réponses leur paraîtront, justement parce qu'elles sont dégagées de toute préoccupation de mode, particulièrement suggestives pour notre conjoncture".

Download or read book Ethics of Hospitality written by Daniel Innerarity and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-01-12 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The source of hospitality lies in the fundamental ethical experiences that make up the fabric of the social lives of people. Therein lies a primary form of humanity. Whether we are guests or hosts, this reveals our situation in a world made up of receiving and meeting, leaving room for the liberty to give and receive beyond the imperatives of reciprocity. This book proposes an ethic that promotes the possibility of stirring emotion before that of protecting ourselves from unexpected encounters. Fundamental ethical competence consists of opening up to the wholly other and to others, to be accessible to the world’s solicitations. There is moral superiority of vulnerable love over control and moderation, of generous passion over rational prudence and of excess over exchange. Constructing an ethic of hospitality is essential at a time when we are torn between the imperatives of modernization and growth and the demands of concern and protection. The experience we all have today, that of the fragility of the world, is giving rise to a powerful tendency toward solicitude. From such a perspective, the duty of individuals no longer consists of protecting themselves from society, but of defending it, taking care of a social fabric outside of which no identity can be formed.
