This book was released on 1986 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La 46ème réunion du Comité catholique pour les migrations intra-européennes (CCMIE) qui s'est déroulée au mois de mars 1986 à Lucerne, Suisse, a donné lieu à deux documents traitant de la situation juridique ainsi que des problèmes sociaux et humains des demandeurs d'asile en Europe. Le premier volume contient les réponses des comités catholiques de neuf pays à un questionnaire envoyé en vue d'établir une comparaison synoptique de la situation des demandeurs d'asile dans ces différents pays. Il porte, entre autres choses, sur le nombre annuel d'entrées des demandeurs d'asile, sur le pourcentage des demandes acceptées et rejetées, sur les procédures d'accueil et leurs disparités, sur la situation juridique et sociale du réfugié pendant la procédure pour l'obtention du droit d'asile, sur les réglementations du droit au travail, sur les possibilités de regroupement de famille, sur les relations entre la population autochtone et les demandeurs d'asile, ainsi que sur l'activité de l'Eglise catholique et des organisations ecclésiastiques, et sur les possibilités d'apporter une amélioration à la situation actuelle. Les pays concernés par ce questionnaire sont : la République fédérale d'Allemagne, l'Autriche, la France, l'Italie, le Portugal, la Suisse, la Belgique, et les Pays-Bas. Le deuxième volume fournit une synthèse des rapports nationaux et conclut sur la situation du demandeur d'asile aussi bien avant la décision de l'octroi de l'asile - où le permis de travail, l'aide sociale, le logement, l'assistance d'orientation et d'intégration sont mis en cause - qu'après la décision, et sur les réponses apportées par l'Eglise dans ces différents pays. Trois exposés prononcés par le président du CCMIE, du directeur adjoint de la protection internationale du HCR, et de la direction des affaires juridiques du Conseil de l'Europe précèdent les rapports des groupes de travail germanophone, francophone et mixte qui appellent à une amélioration de la coopération internationale et de l'action de l'Eglise. Le discours final prononcé par le président du CCMIE suggère que le Conseil de l'Europe, le Parlement européen et la Commission des communautés européennes réfléchissent ensemble à l'élaboration d'une charte du réfugié en Europe pour garantir à ce dernier une meilleure protection, et propose que chaque membre du CCMIE établisse un rapport mettant en évidence la situation du réfugié et soulignant l'importance de leur fournir un accueil convenable.

Book Lifestyle Migration

Download or read book Lifestyle Migration written by Michaela Benson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-06 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Relatively affluent individuals from various corners of the globe are increasingly choosing to migrate, spurred on by the promise of a better and more fulfilling way of life within their destination. Despite its increasing scale, migration academics have yet to consolidate and establish lifestyle migration as a subfield of theoretical enquiry, until now. This volume offers a dynamic and holistic analysis of contemporary lifestyle migrations, exploring the expectations and aspirations which inform and drive migration alongside the realities of life within the destination. It also recognizes the structural conditions (and constraints) which frame lifestyle migration, laying the groundwork for further intellectual enquiry. Through rich empirical case studies this volume addresses this important and increasingly common form of migration in a manner that will interest scholars of mobility, migration, lifestyle and culture across the social sciences.

Book Witchcraft  Intimacy  and Trust

Download or read book Witchcraft Intimacy and Trust written by Peter Geschiere and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2013-08-09 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Dante’s Inferno, the lowest circle of Hell is reserved for traitors, those who betrayed their closest companions. In a wide range of literatures and mythologies such intimate aggression is a source of ultimate terror, and in Witchcraft, Intimacy, and Trust, Peter Geschiere masterfully sketches it as a central ember at the core of human relationships, one brutally revealed in the practice of witchcraft. Examining witchcraft in its variety of forms throughout the globe, he shows how this often misunderstood practice is deeply structured by intimacy and the powers it affords. In doing so, he offers not only a comprehensive look at contemporary witchcraft but also a fresh—if troubling—new way to think about intimacy itself. Geschiere begins in the forests of southeast Cameroon with the Maka, who fear “witchcraft of the house” above all else. Drawing a variety of local conceptions of intimacy into a global arc, he tracks notions of the home and family—and witchcraft’s transgression of them—throughout Africa, Europe, Brazil, and Oceania, showing that witchcraft provides powerful ways of addressing issues that are crucial to social relationships. Indeed, by uncovering the link between intimacy and witchcraft in so many parts of the world, he paints a provocative picture of human sociality that scrutinizes some of the most prevalent views held by contemporary social science. One of the few books to situate witchcraft in a global context, Witchcraft, Intimacy, and Trust is at once a theoretical tour de force and an empirically rich and lucid take on a difficult-to-understand spiritual practice and the private spaces throughout the world it so greatly affects.

Book Along the Archival Grain

Download or read book Along the Archival Grain written by Ann Laura Stoler and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2010-01-25 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Along the Archival Grain offers a unique methodological and analytic opening to the affective registers of imperial governance and the political content of archival forms. In a series of nuanced mediations on the nature of colonial documents from the nineteenth-century Netherlands Indies, Ann Laura Stoler identifies the social epistemologies that guided perception and practice, revealing the problematic racial ontologies of that confused epistemic space. Navigating familiar and extraordinary paths through the lettered lives of those who ruled, she seizes on moments when common sense failed and prevailing categories no longer seemed to work. She asks not what colonial agents knew, but what happened when what they thought they knew they found they did not. Rejecting the notion that archival labor be approached as an extractive enterprise, Stoler sets her sights on archival production as a consequential act of governance, as a field of force with violent effect, and not least as a vivid space to do ethnography.

Book Revisiting Moroccan Migrations

Download or read book Revisiting Moroccan Migrations written by Mohammed Berriane and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the 20th century, Morocco has become one of the world’s major emigration countries. But since 2000, growing immigration and settlement of migrants from sub-Saharan Africa, the Middle East, and Europe confronts Morocco with an entirely new set of social, cultural, political and legal issues. This book explores how continued emigration and increasing immigration is transforming contemporary Moroccan society, with a particular emphasis on the way the Moroccan state is dealing with shifting migratory realities. The authors of this collective volume embark on a dialogue between theory and empirical research, showcasing how contemporary migration theories help understanding recent trends in Moroccan migration, and, vice-versa, how the specific Moroccan case enriches migration theory. This perspective helps to overcome the still predominant Western-centric research view that artificially divide the world into ‘receiving’ and ‘sending’ countries and largely disregards the dynamics of and experiences with migration in countries in the Global South. This book was previously published as a special issue of The Journal of North African Studies.

  • ISBN : 0820338907
  • Pages : 310 pages

Download or read book Stuck written by Marc Sommers and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Young people are transforming the global landscape. As the human popu­lation today is younger and more urban than ever before, prospects for achieving adulthood dwindle while urban migration soars. Devastated by genocide, hailed as a spectacular success, and critiqued for its human rights record, the Central African nation of Rwanda provides a compelling setting for grasping new challenges to the world's youth. Spotlighting failed masculinity, urban desperation, and forceful governance, Marc Sommers tells the dramatic story of young Rwandans who are “stuck,” striving against near-impossible odds to become adults. In Rwandan culture, female youth must wait, often in vain, for male youth to build a house before they can marry. Only then can male and female youth gain acceptance as adults. However, Rwanda's severe housing crisis means that most male youth are on a treadmill toward failure, unable to build their house yet having no choice but to try. What follows is too often tragic. Rural youth face a future as failed adults, while many who migrate to the capital fail to secure a stable life and turn fatalistic about contracting HIV/AIDS. Featuring insightful interviews with youth, adults, and government officials, Stuck tells the story of an ambitious, controlling government trying to gov­ern an exceptionally young and poor population in a densely populated and rapidly urbanizing country. This pioneering book sheds new light on the struggle to come of age and suggests new pathways toward the attainment of security, development, and coexistence in Africa and beyond.

Book Insurgent Love

Download or read book Insurgent Love written by Ardath Whynacht and published by Fernwood Publishing. This book was released on 2021-10-31T00:00:00Z with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Domestic homicide is violence that strikes within our most intimate relations. The most common strategy for addressing this kind of transgression relies on policing and prisons. But through examining commonly accepted typologies of high-risk intimate partner violence, Ardath Whynacht shows that policing can be understood as part of the same root problem as the violence it seeks to mend and provides an abolitionist frame for the most dangerous forms of intimate partner violence. This book illustrates that the origins of both the carceral state and toxic masculinity are situated in settler colonialism and racial capitalism and sees police homicide and domestic homicide as akin. Describing an experience of domestic homicide in her community and providing a deeply personal analysis of some of the most recent cases of homicide in Canada, the author inhabits the complexity of seeking abolitionist justice. Insurgent Love traces the major risk factors for domestic homicide within the structures of racial capitalism and suggests transformative, anti-capitalist, anti-racist, feminist approaches for safety, prevention and justice.
