Download or read book Sustainable States written by Jon B. Alterman and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-10-13 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of environmentally sustainable public utilities in the Middle East is an improbable topic for a Washington think tank study. Yet, many countries in the Middle East face serious challenges providing utilities in any manner to their populations, and the failure to do so is an increasing flashpoint for public dissatisfaction. This study finds that providing more environmentally sustainable services in the Middle East would be an effective way to address many citizens’ grievances which go beyond the reliability of those services. It would also help ameliorate deep dissatisfaction with the quality of governance and help build trust between citizens and their governments. This study examines three sectors—power, water and sanitation, and solid waste—in Jordan, Lebanon, and Tunisia. While the three countries are different in many ways, each faces increasing challenges providing services to their citizens. Providing these services in an environmentally sustainable way would also crucially increase each country’s resilience and diminish their vulnerability in a chronically unstable region.

Download or read book Damages for Violations of Human Rights written by Ewa Bagińska and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-10-20 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume analyses the legal grounds, premises and extent of pecuniary compensation for violations of human rights in national legal systems. The scope of comparison includes liability regimes in general and in detail, the correlation between pecuniary remedies available under international law and under domestic law, and special (alternative) compensation systems. All sources of human rights violations are embraced, including historical injustices and systematical and gross violations. The book is a collection of nineteen contributions written by public international law, international human rights and private law experts, covering fifteen European jurisdictions (including Central and Eastern Europe), the United States, Israel and EU law. The contributions, initially prepared for the 19th International Congress of Comparative law in Vienna (2014), present the latest developments in legislation, scholarship and case-law concerning domestic causes of action in cases of human rights abuses. The book concludes with a comparative report which assesses the developments in tort law and public liability law, the role of the constitutionalisation of the right to damages as well as the court practice related to the process of enforcement of human rights through monetary remedies. This country-by-country comparison allows to consider whether the value of protection of human rights as expressed in international treaties, ius cogens and in national constitutional laws justifies the conclusion that the interests at stake should enjoy protection under the existing civil liability rules, or that a new cause of action, or even a whole new set of rules, should be created in national systems.
Download or read book Strategic Intelligence for the Future 1 written by Henri Dou and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2019-04-30 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Information in all its forms is at the heart of the economic intelligence process. It is also a powerful vector of innovation and, more than ever, a balance between economic and societal forces. Strategic Intelligence for the Future 1 analyzes the need for the French economic intelligence to mutate in order to develop the economy, strengthen social cohesion and protect vital interests. This mutation requires a change of attitudes and a new way of thinking, widely open to global change and new technologies. The focus of the French economic intelligence on conventional objectives such as business and the economy does not allow for the integration of its multiple possible fields and thus its global nature. The strategy, foresight and temporal dynamics necessary to the understanding of the world, and the new balance of power and control of complex situations, have thus increased the time needed to put this in place. Both theoretical and practical, this book provides a basis from which to develop "enhanced economic intelligence" leading to the implementation of global security.

Download or read book The Phraseology of Administrative French written by Wendy J. Anderson and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 2006 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The French administrative language of the European Union is an emerging discourse: it is only fifty years old, and has its origins in the French administrative register of the middle of the twentieth century, but it is also a unique contact situation in which translation has always played a pivotal role. Using the methodology of corpus linguistics, and a specially compiled corpus of texts, covering a range of genres, this book describes the current discourse of EU French from the perspective of phraseology and collocational patterning, and in particular in comparison with its French national counterpart. Corpus methodology and an inclusive notion of phraseology, embracing typical formulae, locutions, and patterning around keywords, reveal subtleties and patterns which otherwise remain hidden, and point to a discourse of EU French whose novel context of production has led it to be phraseologically conservative, compared with the administrative French of France

Download or read book Pedagogical Appropriation of Information and Communication Technologies ICT by West African Educators written by Kathryn Toure and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2016-08-06 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: West African teachers and professors who are appropriating information and communication technologies (ICT) are making it part and parcel of education and everyday life. In Mali and beyond, they adapt ICT to their milieus and work as cultural agents, mediating between technology and society. They yearn to use ICT to make education more relevant to life, facilitate and enhance African participation in global debates and scholarly production, and evolve how Africa and Africans are projected and perceived. In sum, educators are harnessing ICT for its transformative possibilities. The changes apparent in student-teacher relations (more interactive) and classrooms (more dialogical) suggest that ICT can be a catalyst for pedagogical change, including in document-poor contexts and ones weighed down by legacies of colonialism. Learning from the perspectives and experiences of educators pioneering the use of ICT in education in Africa can inform educational theory, practice and policy and deepen understandings of the concept of appropriation as a process of cultural change.
Download or read book La Charte La loi 101 et les Qu b cois d expression anglaise The Charter Bill 101 and English Speaking Quebec written by Lorraine O'Donnell and published by Presses de l'Université Laval. This book was released on 2021-06-22T00:00:00-04:00 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Charte. La loi 101 et les Québécois d’expression anglaise La Charte de la langue française, communément appelée loi 101, a profondément changé le Québec. Introduite en 1977, la loi décrète la primauté du français dans les ministères et organismes, dans certains lieux de travail et dans l’affichage commercial. Depuis, la minorité d’expression anglaise a connu un déclin démographique et économique et des fermetures d’écoles. Néanmoins, on remarque une croissance de sa vitalité organisationnelle et de sa participation dans le Québec francophone. En explorant les dimensions historiques, politiques, juridiques et socio-économiques de la Charte en lien avec les Québécois d’expression anglaise, cet ouvrage, qui comprend des textes en anglais et en français, fait ressortir la complexité entourant ces questions. The Charter: Bill 101 and English-Speaking Quebec The Charter of the French Language, also called Bill 101, profoundly changed Quebec. The 1977 law made state institutions, certain workplaces, and commercial signs predominantly French. Since the law's adoption, the English-speaking minority has experienced population loss, economic decline, and school closures, but also a growing organizational vitality and increased participation in Francophone Quebec. This book features chapters in English or French by researchers and engaged citizens. They explore the Charter in relation to English-speaking Quebec and within a broad historical, political, legal, and socio-economic context. A complex view of the Quebec law and its communities emerges.

This book was released on 2019-03-04 with total page 609 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Depuis 1967, année du centenaire de la Confédération, de nombreux épisodes de crise politique et de difficultés économiques ainsi que les événements internationaux ont contribué à la transformation de la société canadienne et continueront de façonner son avenir. En tenant compte de ces diverses difficultés et opportunités rencontrées dans le passé, à quoi ressemble l’avenir du Canada? Dans Réfléchir sur notre passé pour aborder notre avenir, des diplomates, des politiciens, des chercheurs et des personnages en vue dans le domaine des droits de l’homme, dont Phil Fontaine, Michaëlle Jean, Ellen Gabriel, Paul Heinbecker, Bob Rae, Jean Charest et David Suzuki mettent en commun leur sagesse et leur expérience des événements qui ont marqué l’histoire du pays au cours des cinquante dernières années. Réfléchissant au rôle complémentaire à la Chambre des communes du Sénat au Canada, ils examinent des enjeux clés comme la condition des peuples autochtones, les obligations imposées par la Charte des droits et libertés, la reconnaissance des deux langues officielles et les référendums sur l’unité nationale. Les collaborateurs abordent aussi la transformation de l’économie dans un monde numérisé et un système planétaire, le rôle du Canada sur la scène mondiale à une époque de tension croissante, le flot accru de réfugiés, les changements climatiques et l’incertitude entourant l’avenir de l’Arctique, la concurrence scientifique et culturelle sur le marché international et l’avenir de la démocratie parlementaire. Corrigeant les fausses idées à propos du rôle actuel du Sénat et donnant le contre-argument à une réforme radicale du Sénat, Réfléchir sur notre passé pour aborder notre avenir propose de riches perspectives et un aperçu fascinant de l’évolution probable du Canada au cours des prochaines années.

Current challenges to access to justice before the European and the Inter-American Courts of Human Rights as well as common and different challenges to the European and Inter-American Human Rights systems are assessed. Based on the foundational work of the GIZ-DIRAJus project in Latin America specific challenges of access to justice in Mexico, Peru, Brazil, El Salvador and Chile are comprehensively examined. The issues identified in the book based on Latin American and European efforts in ensuring access to justice offer guidance in what way additional indicators for Goal 16.3 could be developed.
