Download or read book TWILIGHT Other Poems written by James Clark and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-08-07 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection covers many subjects - though the element of time might be considered its keystone - a sort of sequel to earlier collections entitled HOURGLASS & Other Poems, POTHOLES & Other Poems, and Time Alone? & Other Poems. Twilight is just another time-setting and can stand for a particular period in one's life or an institution or nation. In the writer's view, the nation, besides suffering under poor governance currently, is also suffering a psychological emergency, with the government aiding and abetting - if not causing - a moral decline. While sin is defined by God, morals are determined by the individual, so there's wild disagreement with that statement but to each his own, and each is entitled to his own soapbox, teleprompter, pulpit or poetry collection. Religion (including religious practices...or malpractices) is also an important subject handled in this offering.

Book excerpt: Baptist minister John Wesley Cain, an earthy, theologically unconventional Vietnam veteran, deals with the possible loss of his position; problems with his son; a troubled teen-aged musician and his drunken Vietnam-vet father; hypocritical church members, and his own shortcomings and ambitions. He tries to save the marriage of a man and wife, both of whom have been unfaithful. Present in this matter is the intrigue surrounding the man, a lawyer/legislator/bagman who is the operator in a kickback scheme perpetrated by casino operators interested in bringing riverboat gambling to the state.

Download or read book Democratic Citizenship and War written by Yoav Peled and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-03 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume explores the theoretical and practical implications of war and terror situations for citizenship in democratic states. Citizenship is a key concept in Western political thought for defining the individual’s relations with society. The specific nature of these rights, duties and contributions, as well the relations between them, are determined by the citizenship discourses that prevail in each society. In wartime, including low-intensity wars, democratic societies face different challenges than the ones facing them during peacetime, in areas such as human rights, the status of minorities, the state’s obligations to its citizens, and the meaning of social solidarity. War situations can affect not only the scope of citizenship as an institution, but also the relations between the prevailing discourses of citizenship and between different groups of citizens. Since 9/11 and the declaration of the 'war on terror', many democracies have been grappling with issues rising out of the interface between citizenship and war. This volume examines the effects of war on various aspects of citizenship practice, including: immigration and naturalization, the welfare state, individual liberties, gender relations, multiculturalism, social solidarity, and state – civil society relations. This book will be of great interest to students of military studies, political science, IR and security studies in general.

Download or read book Democratic Oversight and Reform of the Security Sector in Turkey written by Ümit Cizre and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2008 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book vividly describes the historical background, current issues, and remaining challenges of Turkey's security sector institutions and their democratic oversight. As Turkey proceeds on its path towards possible European Union membership, this book documents its progress on the touchstone issue of contemporary civil-military relations, the challenging issue of instituting civilian and democratic oversight and control mechanisms over a whole array of security institutions including the police, gendarmerie, army, intelligence services and many others. Military relations in Turkey have undergone great and constructive changes during the past few years, which, if continued, will also have a positive impact on the accession negotiations with the European Union. In this context it will be very important, building on the goodwill which the Turkish military possess in society, to develop an informed security community consisting of members of parliament, academicians, journalists underpinning of security policy.

Download or read book The International Criminal Court written by William Schabas and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2010 with total page 1331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Criminal Court has been operational since mid-2003, following the entry into force of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court on 1 July 2002. The Rome Statute is among the most complex international treaties, a combination of public international law, international humanitarian law and criminal law, both international and domestic. The Commentary provides an article-by-article analysis of the Statute. Each of the 128 articles is presented accompanied by a bibliography of academic literature relevant to that provision, an overview of the drafting history of the provision and an analysis of the text. The analytical portion of each chapter draws upon relevant case law from the Court itself, as well as from other international and national criminal tribunals, academic commentary, and the related instruments such as the Elements of Crimes, the Rules of Procedure and Evidence and the Relationship Agreement with the United Nations. Written by a single author, the Commentary avoids duplication and inconsistency, providing a comprehensive presentation to assist those who must understand, interpret and apply the complex provisions of the Rome Statute
