Download or read book Mirjan written by Kiara Windrider and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2023-08-19 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is magic at the heart of the universe. We live our lives consciously or unconsciously searching for this magic even when it seems to forever elude us. It is as close to us as our own heartbeat, yet we have lost the way to our hearts. Following this spark of magic is the simplest of all things, yet we have created around it so many rules and conditions that it seems impossible to achieve this journey. There is a rhythm to all things. I have spent a lifetime in orbit around the most beautiful of men, one who became known as Issa, Son of the Sun. Although my story could not exist without him, it is also true that his story could not exist without me, for together we were meant to discover this magic at the heart of the universe, and bring it to the world. How can I ever forget the first time I laid eyes on him, when he slipped into my heart like a moth entering the candle’s flame. This is when the wild power of magic entered into me and made its home there, although of course it had always been there, since the Great Mother is the source of this magic. I have shared with you in an earlier manuscript his story, his travels and adventures, his struggles and temptations, his apprenticeship with a lineage of immortals, his journey back to the land of his birth where he was crucified on a Roman cross before making his escape and returning to the land of Kashmir. Now it is time to share my own.

Book Science and Technology Education Promoting Wellbeing for Individuals  Societies and Environments

Download or read book Science and Technology Education Promoting Wellbeing for Individuals Societies and Environments written by Larry Bencze and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-06-21 with total page 692 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume provides theoretical and practical resources relating to the ‘STEPWISE’ curricular and instructional framework. ‘STEPWISE’ is the acronym for Science & Technology Education Promoting Wellbeing for Individuals, Societies & Environments. It is a framework for organizing teaching and learning domains in ways that prioritize personal and social actions to address ‘critical socioscientific issues’ — that is, controversial decisions by powerful individuals/groups about science and technology (and related fields) that may adversely affect individuals, societies and/or environments. The book contains chapters written by and/or with teachers who have used STEPWISE to guide their instructional practices, as well as chapters written by education scholars who have used a range of theoretical lenses to analyze and evaluate STEPWISE — and, in several cases, described ways in which it relates to (or could relate to) their practices and/or ways in which the framework might logically be amended. Overall, this book offers educators, policy makers and others with resources useful for arranging science and technology education in ways that may assist societies in addressing significant potential personal, social and/or environmental problems — such as dramatic climate change, preventable human diseases, species losses, and social injustices — associated with fields of science and technology.

Book Crime  Procedure and Evidence in a Comparative and International Context

Download or read book Crime Procedure and Evidence in a Comparative and International Context written by John D Jackson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2008-09-29 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to honour the work of Professor Mirjan Damaška, Sterling Professor of Law at Yale Law School and a prominent authority for many years in the fields of comparative law, procedural law, evidence, international criminal law and Continental legal history. Professor Damaška 's work is renowned for providing new frameworks for understanding different legal traditions. To celebrate the depth and richness of his work and discuss its implications for the future, the editors have brought together an impressive range of leading scholars from different jurisdictions in the fields of comparative and international law, evidence and criminal law and procedure. Using Professor Damaška's work as a backdrop, the essays make a substantial contribution to the development of comparative law, procedure and evidence. After an introduction by the editors and a tribute by Harold Koh, Dean of Yale Law School, the book is divided into four parts. The first part considers contemporary trends in national criminal procedure, examining cross-fertilisation and the extent to which these trends are resulting in converging practices across national jurisdictions. The second part explores the epistemological environment of rules of evidence and procedure. The third part analyses human rights standards and the phenomenon of hybridisation in transnational and international criminal law. The final part of the book assesses Professor Damaška 's contribution to comparative law and the challenges faced by comparative law in the twenty first century.

Book Evidence Law Adrift

    Book Details:
  • Author : Mirjan R. Damaška
  • Publisher : Berghahn Books
  • Release : 1997
  • ISBN : 9780300069372
  • Pages : 182 pages

Download or read book Evidence Law Adrift written by Mirjan R. Damaška and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 1997 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this important book, a distinguished legal scholar examines how the legal culture and institutions in Anglo-American countries affect the way in which evidence is gathered, sifted, and presented to the courts. Mirjan Damaska focuses on the significance of the divided tribunal (between judge and jury), the concentrated character of trials ("day-in-court" justice), and the prominent role of the parties in adjudication (the adversary system). Throughout he contrasts the Anglo-American system with civil law justice, where lay fact finders sit with professional judges in unified tribunals, proceedings are episodic rather than concentrated, and the parties have fewer responsibilities than in the common law tradition.

Book Jurisprudence of International Criminal Justice

Download or read book Jurisprudence of International Criminal Justice written by Farhad Malekian and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2014-06-30 with total page 808 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction written by Professor Benjamin B Ferencz This challenging volume examines the jurisprudence of international criminal justice from various points of view. The philosophy of justice may vary from time to time and from nation to nation, depending on prevailing attitudes towards the substantive rules which deal, in one way or another, with cultural norms. In the national and international area, the principles of criminal justice have a key role in examining the scope of the most serious violations of international criminal law. It is on the basis of appropriate judgment that these principles may be accumulated and achieved for the future conduct of man. This volume, therefore, examines the principles and dimensions of the constitutions of various international criminal tribunals/courts, with particular focus on the Statute of the International Criminal Court (ICC). As such, the volume offers a comprehensive evaluation of the rule of law and criminal justice and their legal tasks within the complementarity system of international criminal jurisprudence. The volume emphasises the prosecution and punishment of all those who may successfully escape from the proceedings of national and international criminal courts because of their juridical, political, religious, economic or military power. It demands the implementation of international law of jus cogens. The provisions of the Statute should not be deduced in contradiction to the norms from which no derogation is possible, such as prohibitions governing crimes against humanity, torture, apartheid, rape, war crimes, genocide and aggression. If the value of the task of the Court is to be realised by the majority of states in the international community, the cycle of impunity has to be abolished in the case of all states, including the five permanent members of the Security Council of the United Nations.

Book The Legacy of the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia

Download or read book The Legacy of the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia written by A. H. J. Swart and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2011-05-19 with total page 585 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia (ICTY) was established in 1993 and is due to complete its trials by 2011. Easily the most credible and prodigious of the international tribunals established in this period, the ICTY is by far the most important source of case law on international criminal law. This is reflected in the citations it receives by other courts and by learned commentators. Long after its dissolution, the ICTY will most likely serve as animportant frame of reference for the International Criminal Court and other courts dealing with international crimes, including national courts.The publication of this book coincides with the year of cessation of trial activity at the ICTY. Its purpose is to mark this significant milestone in international law with a series of in-depth, critical reflections on the institution's legacy by eminent scholars and practitioners. In the course of seventeen chapters, the contributing authors analyse the main features of the ICTY's work in an unprecedented examination of the institution's legitimacy, core principles, methodologies, unstatedassumptions, political circumstances, and impact-and indeed, its legacy.

Book Robotic Fabrication in Architecture  Art and Design 2016

Download or read book Robotic Fabrication in Architecture Art and Design 2016 written by Dagmar Reinhardt and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-02-03 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book presents the proceedings of Rob/Arch 2016, the third international conference on robotic fabrication in architecture, art, and design. The work contains a wide range of contemporary topics, from methodologies for incorporating dynamic material feedback into existing fabrication processes, to novel interfaces for robotic programming, to new processes for large-scale automated construction. The latent argument behind this research is that the term ‘file-to-factory’ must not be a reductive celebration of expediency but instead a perpetual challenge to increase the quality of feedback between design, matter, and making.
