Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Annotation. The universal international refugee law regime that was created in the wake of the Second World War - consisting of the 1951 Convention and the 1967 Protocol Relating to the Status of Refugees, and the Statute of UNHCR - has in the course of time been changed, gradually but inexorably. The regime that is currently in place has consequently lost its original structure and consistency. In particular, it is no longer a normative continuum, and as a result, the international protection of refugees is no longer secure but dependent on contingencies. The changes in the regime exclusively concern the mandate of UNHCR. The personal and substantive scope of its activities has been extended time and again with the consent of states as represented in the UN General Assembly. As those extensions have never been (considered to be) matched by corresponding obligations on the part of states, UNHCR's world has been turned into a parallel universe.

This single line is the crux of this story and that's why I built this story.

This story is an expression of the imagination of
Download or read book The Law of Refugee Status written by James C. Hathaway and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-10 with total page 777 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first edition of The Law of Refugee Status (published in 1991) is generally regarded as the seminal text on interpreting the refugee definition set by the UN's 1951 Refugee Convention. Its groundbreaking analysis served as the bedrock for not only much judicial reasoning, but also for a burgeoning academic literature in law and related fields. This second edition builds on the strong critical focus and human rights orientation of the first edition, but undertakes an entirely original analysis of the jurisprudence of leading common law and select civil law states. The authors provide robust responses to the most difficult questions of refugee status in a clear and direct way. The result is a comprehensive and truly global analysis of the central question in asylum law: who is a refugee?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All life is a continuous movement forward in all possible directions of development. It seems that the topic of this book globally and ideally fits into this rule because it can lead us to a completely different level of existence. It is especially worthwhile to immediately understand that in this book you will not find mysticism and esotericism. This book is only about the practice and what can be proved to any adequate person, based solely on a sober mind and a more scientific approach than on unexplained facts. The book is designed for a pragmatist and a person far from miracles. Naturally, a person with esoteric interests will see here a different view of things, which are usually given a completely different explanation. Only now he will receive real practice, far from the usual theories and extremely subjective experiences.This phenomenon itself has many applications in life, of which you first learn only from this book. In it, I tried to describe as broadly and fully as possible the entire spectrum of all kinds of things related to this phenomenon. It would seem to someone that, with an undeniable opportunity, this is difficult to learn. This is far from the case. In fact, it is simple if you know what, how and when to do, about which, by the way, almost a third of this book.At its core, "out-of-body" sensations are far more overwhelming than you can even imagine. Leaving there, you take away all the sensations with you and only remember that you exist here. These experiences are also and even more real than those that are now in front of your eyes, that is, there is a clear feeling of full presence in real events, which nothing else can give at the moment. This phenomenon is so vivid in all respects, so real in essence and so limitless that I can only worry about the fact that my meagre language and experience of expressing thoughts were not enough to convey the scale of the phenomenon. Whatever opinion you have after reading this book, it certainly will not correspond to the knowledge and understanding that I would like to convey, and which correspond to reality. Everything is much more serious.

Book excerpt: In 1573 Edward is digging graves for Black Death victims when he unknowingly enters an unstable wormhole created by scientists in London in the year 2050.

One scientist, Laura Rebas, understands that Edward has not travelled in time from the past, but has travelled from a parallel universe in which the present is similar to but not identical to our past. Zebra, who monitors wormhole creation from a universe in which people have learned to perceive and move about in four spatial dimensions, has observed Edward's travel between parallel universes. He tells Edward that the creators of the wormhole do not understand the dangers that it poses and that the wormhole that he traveled through must be destroyed.
Download or read book Prayer and Parallel Universes Could There Also Be Parallel Heavens written by Jason Cole and published by . This book was released on 2017-11-24 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores an interesting take on the exotic physics of Parallel universes by exploring its impact on religion. From a religious perspective if Parallel Universe exist then Parallel Heavens exist as well. There are Billions of People in the world with religion. This book is like a guide for believers on how to reconcile Parallel Universes with their faith based on Parallel Heavens existing. For the first time it explores how Parallel universes impact religion and how religious believer can have it compliment their faith rather than go against it. The possibility of Parallel universes being real are exciting. However, no one have address the spiritual aspect of Parallel universes. Billions of people around the world have religion. If Parallel Earths are real then from a religious perspective there should also exist Parallel Heavens. Meaning their are different versions of same Heaven, same God, same Angels, etc like there are different versions of the same you, same Earth, same universe. This book explores that subject.Also what if our Dreams are glimpses into Parallel universes we should pray for? Dreams have always been a mystery. They look and feel so real. Scientists have theorized they are glimpses of our lives in parallel universes. Through fantastic new laws of physics, we may be seeing in our dreams, real time life through our parallel universe selves. From a faith perspective If Parallel universes exists then Parallel Heavens and parallel Holy Bibles exist as well. Meaning there are different versions of the Holy Bible like there are different versions of Earths(universes). This book isn't adding any new religion but suggesting parallel Earths have their own unique Holy Bible and Heaven and God. Just as there are different versions of the same you in parallel universes there are different versions of the same God in Parallel Heavens. This book explores the idea of expanding praying not just for yourself, family and others in this world but praying over your dreams at night to help your parallel universe selves. What it comes down to is dream interpretation. If dreams are glimpses into your parallel Earth lives then it's good to pray over them after you wake up from sleep. Because you're all connected on a quantum mechanical level, praying over your parallel Earth versions of you that you see in your dreams will bless you in this world. Things can happen in a parallel universe wave. Rather than a ripple of evil and bad stuff happen to all versions you, your prayer that all versions of you press forward and enjoy the Grace and protection from the Lord.

Download or read book Managing the Undesirables written by Michel Agier and published by Polity. This book was released on 2011-01-25 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Official figures classify some fifty million of the world’s people as 'victims of forced displacement'. Refugees, asylum seekers, disaster victims, the internally displaced and the temporarily tolerated - categories of the excluded proliferate, but many more are left out of count. In the face of this tragedy, humanitarian action increasingly seems the only possible response. On the ground, however, the 'facilities' put in place are more reminiscent of the logic of totalitarianism. In a situation of permanent catastrophe and endless emergency, 'undesirables' are kept apart and out of sight, while the care dispensed is designed to control, filter and confine. How should we interpret the disturbing symbiosis between the hand that cares and the hand that strikes? After seven years of study in the refugee camps, Michel Agier reveals their 'disquieting ambiguity' and stresses the imperative need to take into account forms of improvisation and challenge that are currently transforming the camps, sometimes making them into towns and heralding the emergence of political subjects. A radical critique of the foundations, contexts, and political effects of humanitarian action.

Download or read book Making Enemies written by Evelin Lindner and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2006-06-30 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the statue of Saddam Hussein fell and Iraqis danced on the body, hitting it with their shoes, there was joy. Moments later, when an American soldier climbed the statue to place an American flag on the face, there was a national gasp, a moment of humiliation for the Iraqis. Americans had claimed to be liberating them, but the placing of the American flag was a sign of conquest. The flag was quickly removed and replaced with an Iraqi flag, but those tense moments were a brief example of the power and potentially far-reaching, volatile effects of humiliating acts, even when unintentional. In this fascinating work, Dr. Linder examines and explains, across history and nations, how this little-understood, often-overlooked emotion sparks outrage, uprisings, conflict and war. With the insights of a seasoned psychologist and peace scholar, the analytical skill of a linguist who speaks seven languages, and the scholarship of a Columbia University professor, Lindner explains which words and actions can humiliate, how the victim perceives those words and actions, what the consequences have been, and how individuals and organizations can work to avoid instances in the future. From acts of humiliation in Nazi Germany to intentional humiliations such as those at Abu Graib, from events during the bloodbaths in Rwanda and Somalia, to precursors to the attacks on the Twin Towers in New York, Lindner offers vivid examples to explain how humiliation can be at the core of international conflict.
