Download or read book Retours d URSS written by Catherine Klein-Gousseff and published by CNRS. This book was released on 2001 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 313 000 Français, dont les " Malgré-Nous "--Ces Alsaciens-Lorrains enrôlés de force dans la Wehrmacht -, furent libérés par l'Armée rouge et emmenés en URSS avant leur rapatriement, parfois tardif, vers la France. Cet ouvrage, présentant la traduction de documents d'archives de l'administration soviétique - instructions, décrets, rapports secrets, correspondance apporte des éléments nouveaux sur tous les aspects de la vie des prisonniers et internés : des conditions générales de détention à l'organisation du système sanitaire, de l'utilisation des prisonniers comme main-d'œuvre à la liquidation des camps de prisonniers de guerre. On voit ici de l'intérieur les difficultés de la Mission française de rapatriement à Moscou pour faire libérer les prisonniers de guerre et les internés dans les camps du NKVD comme pour faire comprendre aux autorités soviétiques que les Alsaciens-Lorrains étaient des Français de plein droit. Le début de la Guerre froide accentua encore les difficultés, les Soviétiques pratiquant alors l'échange des rares survivants contre des citoyens soviétiques déportés en Allemagne et se trouvant en France ou dans les zones d'occupation française en Allemagne et en Autriche. L'accès rendu possible à des fonds d'archives essentiels et une étroite collaboration entre chercheurs russes et français contribuent à préciser les contours d'une histoire qui n'est encore connue qu'en pointillé. Ce volume, dans l'esprit de la collection, participe ainsi au renouveau historiographique. --

Download or read book Detention in Non International Armed Conflict written by Lawrence Hill-Cawthorne and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-03-24 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International law has long differentiated between international and non-international armed conflicts, traditionally regulating the former far more comprehensively than the latter. This is particularly stark in the case of detention, where the law of non-international armed conflict contains no rules on who may be detained, what processes must be provided to review their detention, and when they must be released. Given that non-international armed conflicts are now the most common form of conflict, this is especially worrying, and the consequences of this have been seen in the detention practices of states such as the US and UK in Iraq and Afghanistan. This book provides a comprehensive examination of the procedural rules that apply to detention in non-international armed conflict, with the focus on preventive security detention, or 'internment'. All relevant areas of international law, most notably international humanitarian law and international human rights law, are analysed in detail and the interaction between them explored. The book gives an original account of the relationship between the relevant rules of IHL and IHRL, which is firmly grounded in general international law scholarship, treating the issue as a matter of treaty interpretation. With that in mind, and with reference to State practice in specific non-international armed conflicts - including those in Sri Lanka, Colombia, Nepal, Afghanistan, and Iraq - it is demonstrated that the customary and treaty obligations of States under human rights law continue, absent derogation, to apply to detention in non-international armed conflicts. The practical operation of those rules is then explored in detail. The volume ends with a set of concrete proposals for developing the law in this area, in a manner that builds upon, rather than replaces, the existing obligations of States and non-State armed groups.

Download or read book Living War Thinking Peace 1914 1924 written by Bruna Bianchi and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is the result of a long commitment of the online journal DEP: Deportate, esuli, profughe to the themes of women pacifistsâ (TM) thought and activism in the 1900s. The volume is a collection of contributions centred around three main themes. The first part, â oeLiving War: Womenâ (TM)s Experiences during the Warâ , brings together first-hand accounts from womenâ (TM)s lives as they face the horrors of war, drawn mainly from original sources such as diaries, letters, memoirs and writings. The second, â oeThinking Peace: Feminist Thought and Activismâ , explores the lives and thought of several key women activists who challenged inequalities and sought to create new opportunities for women, contributing to the definition of a transnational culture of peace. The final section, â oeInternational Relations: Toward Future World Peaceâ , examines the work of a group of women who saw the outbreak of the First World War and the emergence of an international womenâ (TM)s movement for peace as an opportunity to act for their personal emancipation, and, in some cases, for a different idea of politics. The volume fills a notable gap in international history studies, providing a selection of contributions from little-known European contexts such as Italy, Poland, and Austria. The presence and contribution of African-American women, which has been neglected in the history of womenâ (TM)s pacifism, is also explored. Particular attention is given to the Womenâ (TM)s International League for Peace and Freedom and to the International Congress of Women, held in The Hague in 1915.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are efforts to protect workers' rights compatible with the forces of globalization? How can minimum standards designed to protect labor rights be implemented in a world in which national labor law is more and more at the mercy of international forces beyond its control? The contributors to this volume argue that international agreements and institutions are of central importance if labor rights are to be protected in a globalized economy, exploring some of the options that are open to governments, civil society, and the labor movement in the years ahead.

Download or read book Africa from the Sixteenth to the Eighteenth Century written by Bethwell A. Ogot and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1992 with total page 1088 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The result of years of work by scholars from all over the world, The UNESCO General History of Africa reflects how the different peoples of Africa view their civilizations and shows the historical relationships between the various parts of the continent. Historical connections with other continents demonstrate Africa's contribution to the development of human civilization. Each volume is lavishly illustrated and contains a comprehensive bibliography. This fifth volume of the acclaimed series covers the history of the continent from the beginning of the sixteenth century to the close of the eighteenth century in which two themes emerge: first, the continuing internal evolution of the states and cultures of Africa during this period second, the increasing involvement of Africa in external trade--with major but unforeseen consequences for the whole world. In North Africa, we see the Ottomans conquer Egypt. South of the Sahara, some of the larger, older states collapse, and new power bases emerge. Traditional religions continue to coexist with both Christianity (suffering setbacks) and Islam (in the ascendancy). Along the coast, particularly of West Africa, Europeans establish a trading network which, with the development of New World plantation agriculture, becomes the focus of the international slave trade. The immediate consequences of this trade for Africa are explored, and it is argued that the long-term global consequences include the foundation of the present world-economy with all its built-in inequalities.
