Book Enduring and Emerging Issues in South Asian Security

Download or read book Enduring and Emerging Issues in South Asian Security written by Sumit Ganguly and published by Brookings Institution Press. This book was released on 2022-02-08 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analyzing regional challenges and their implications for U.S. foreign policy This book is an impressive overview of security and governance issues in South Asia and their implications for U.S. foreign policy in the region. The focus is on major enduring issues that include India-Pakistan relations, India-China relations, conventional forces, and nuclear weapons. The book's contributors also tackle a number of often underexplored issues, including democratic backsliding in India, authoritarian hardening in China, and the international ramifications of both. The impact of Pakistan's political culture on democracy, and the insurgency in Pakistan's Baluchistan province, along with examinations of the internal security challenges in Nepal, Bangladesh, and the Maldives provide lessons for other states on how to counterviolent extremism and insurgencies related to identity and marginalization. Anyone interested in South Asian security and U.S. policy toward the region will be rewarded with new insights on these topics, written by academics and analysts specializing in the issues. The chapter authors were close colleagues or advisees of long-time Brookings Institution senior fellow Stephen Philip Cohen. Cohen was the first American scholar to work on South Asian security studies. He largely defined the field, trained and mentored many of its leading analysts, and was himself its most experienced and insightful scholar-practitioner until his death in 2019. This book is dedicated to Cohen in recognition of his contributions to scholarship and policymaking on South Asia.

Book Marginalisation and Human Rights in Southeast Asia

Download or read book Marginalisation and Human Rights in Southeast Asia written by Al Khanif and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-12-28 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyses marginalisation and human rights in Southeast Asia and offers diverse approaches in understanding the nuances of marginalisation and human rights in the region. Throughout the region, a whole range of similarities and differences can be observed relating to the Southeast Asian experience of human rights violation, with each country maintaining particular aspects reflecting the variability of the use and abuse of political power. This book explores the distinct links between marginalisation and human rights for groups exposed to discrimination. It focuses on ethnic minorities, children, indigenous peoples, migrant workers, refugees, academics, and people with disabilities. This book highlights the disparities in attainment and opportunity of marginalised and minority groups in Southeast Asia to their rights. It examines how marginalisation is experienced, with case studies ranging from a regional approach to country context. Paying attention to how broader socio-economic and political structures affect different people’s access to, or denial of, their fundamental human rights and freedoms, the book argues that tackling human rights abuses remains a major hurdle for the countries in Southeast Asia. Providing a broader conceptual framework on marginalisation and human rights in Southeast Asia and a new assessment of these issues, this book will be of interest to readers in the fields of Asian Law, Human Rights in Asia, and Southeast Asian Studies, in particular Southeast Asian Politics.

Book The Globalization of Legal Education

Download or read book The Globalization of Legal Education written by Bryant Garth and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022 with total page 553 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Legal academics and practitioners in recent decades increasingly emphasize the so-called "globalization" of legal education. The diffusion of the Juris Doctor (JD) degree to Australia, Hong Kong, Japan and South Korea, as well as the advent of a very similar Juris Master (JM) degree in China and a shift in the late 1980s and beyond to a new, US-influenced format in India, exemplify shifts toward US legal education practices (Flood 2014). The global and Americanizing trend is evident on the web sites of law schools around the globe, with many law schools competing to be the most "global" in terms of their faculty, curricula, teaching methods, and students. Less pronounced but related to the literature on legal globalization is that on "transnationalization" and transnational processes, which is a strong component of the move toward globalization in legal education. As this book shows, if we look to see what is celebrated as part of globalized law schools and faculties, we see increased cross-border flows of professors and students, teaching of transnational legal subjects, development of particular forms of teaching practice such as legal clinics, explicit focus on transnational rankings, and transnationalized scholarly communities sharing teaching and research methods and approaches across domains of law"--

Book Mindanao  The Long Journey To Peace And Prosperity

Download or read book Mindanao The Long Journey To Peace And Prosperity written by Hutchcroft Paul and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2018-02-13 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Across more than four decades, the conflict between the national government and Muslim liberation forces in the southern Philippines has killed tens of thousands and displaced millions. Two landmark agreements under the presidency of Benigno S Aquino III — the first in 2012 and the second in 2014 — raised high hopes that peace might finally be on the way. But the peace process stalled, and has yet to regain momentum, after a botched counterterrorism operation in early 2015. This volume provides both in-depth examination of the latest stage of a still-ongoing peace process as well as richly textured analysis of the historical, political, and economic context underlying one of the most enduring conflicts in the world. It is thus an extremely important foundational resource in the continuing quest for peace and prosperity in Mindanao. Contents: Introduction: The Travails of Promoting Peace and Prosperity in Mindanao (Paul D Hutchcroft)National Political Update: Can the Gains Be Sustained? Assessing the First Five Years of the Aquino Administration (Ronald D Holmes)Historical Foundations: War and Peace in Muslim Mindanao: Critiquing the Orthodoxy (Patricio N Abinales)The Role of International Actors in the Search for Peace in Mindanao (Steven Rood)Peace Prospects: Forging a Peace Settlement for the Bangsamoro: Compromises and Challenges (Miriam Coronel Ferrer)Building the Bangsamoro Government (Abhoud Syed M Lingga)The Mamasapano Detour (Edilberto C de Jesus and Melinda Quintos de Jesus)Development Challenges: Human Development in the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao: Trends, Traps, and Immediate Challenges (Toby C Monsod)The Shadow Economy and Strongman Rule in Mindanao (Francisco J Lara Jr) Readership: Scholars in South East Asian Studies, peace studies, History of Philippines, and conflict studies. Keywords: Mindanao;Philippines;Peace;Muslim Liberation Forces;Benigno S Aquino IIIReview: Reviews of the First Edition: "This compendium of essays could not have come at a more appropriate time. For the first time in Philippine history, the new President hails from Mindanao. The administration of Rodrigo R. Duterte will certainly benefit from the analysis of the experts who have contributed to this volume, as they examine the complex factors that contributed to the 2014 Comprehensive Agreement on the Bangsamoro as well as derailed the passage of the Bangsamoro Basic Law. An excellent and accessible guide for better understanding both the armed conflict in Mindanao and the peace process." Amina Rasul President, Philippine Center for Islam and Democracy "All of us, stakeholders to peace in Mindanao, have invested a lot to win the peace. We have missed a lot of opportunities, but before us is a chance to deliver one final contributors to this book credibly present truths, analyses, and historical insights. It allows for informed judgment by key players, opinion makers, and the public." General Emmanuel T Bautista (Ret.) Former Chief of Staff, Armed Forces of the Philippines "With so many national and regional policymakers and pundits eager to identify links — both real and exaggerated — between Mindanao and broader regional terrorist networks, a clear-eyed assessment of the challenges for peace in the southern Philippines has never been more urgent. This collection of essays offers a welcome
