Abstract

This book is believed to be the first of its kind written by a renowned Muslim lawyer in the English language, and by an Arab author who is probably the leading authority writing in English in the subject of Islamic law (the Sharia), and modern Islamic legislation. There has long been a need for an objective study such as this dealing with the legal rights and obligations of women under the Sharia and under modern Arab Islamic legislation. Seen within the broad principles of Islamic law, the book examines the status of women with regard to marriage, the iddat, parentage and fosterage and custody, and fi lls an important gap left by recent and more general publications on Islamic law. The author has researched original Arabic and Islamic text books and reviewed legislation in the different Arab countries in order to present the most up-to-date information on the subject. It is hoped that this clear, objective account will dispel many of the commonly-held misconceptions about the status of Muslim women in the modern world. This book will provide an enlightenment and deeper understanding of the subject, not only for legal practitioners, but for all those concerned, or with an interest in the subject, particularly Muslim communities in non-Muslim countries, indeed non-Muslim women who may be, or indeed non-Muslim women who may be married to Muslims.

Abstract

Leerlingen van de Freinetschool in Gent verbeelden diverse kinderrechten, zoals bescherming, gehoord worden, pauze en fouten maken. Wat mogen en kunnen ze doen? Hoe moeten ze zich in relatie tot anderen gedragen? De begeleiders verwoorden hun interpretaties.Fredy BlomEen verzorgde uitgave voor onder meer leerkrachten en ouders van kinderen in de basisschoolleeftijd, die het belangrijk vinden dat kinderen zich bewust worden van hun rechten en plichten en zo - door middel van ervaring en beleving - een basis leggen voor een democratische samenleving. Deze bijzondere vorm van onderwijs heeft zijn bakermat in Frankrijk, maar ook in Nederland zijn er Freinetscholen. De kinderen van een Gentse basisschool zijn zelf aan het woord en vertellen in enkele zinnen hoe ze omgaan met bijvoorbeeld anders zijn, persoonlijke ruimte, leefomgeving, verantwoordelijkheid en de vele vormen van geweld. De uitgave is voor de begeleiders te gebruiken als werkmiddel en als vertrekpunt voor kringgesprekken. De afgebeelde, paginagrote collages en tekeningen in kleur, gemaakt door de leerlingen, geven inzicht in de invulling van de praktijk: veelbelovend! Gemist wordt echter een bredere context. Het voorwoord is heel summier en maakt dat het boekje in zijn geheel toch wat mager overkomt. De materie is actueel, en ?levend leren? en ?handelend onderzoeken? kunnen niet genoeg onder de aandacht worden gebracht. Uitgave kan een aanzet geven voor leerkrachten en opvoeders om met kinderen van ca. 8 t/m 12 jaar te praten en filosoferen over kinderrechten.© NBD Biblion

Abstract

To meet the challenges of globalization, unions must improve their understanding of the changing nature of corporate ownership structures and practices, and they must develop alliances and strategies appropriate to the new environment. Global Unions includes original research from scholars around the world on the range of innovative strategies that unions use to adapt to different circumstances, industries, countries, and corporations in taking on the challenge of mounting cross-border campaigns against global firms. This collection emerges from a landmark conference where unionists, academics, and representatives of nongovernmental organizations from the Global South and the Global North met to devise strategies for labor to use when confronting the most powerful corporations such as Wal-Mart and Exxon Mobil. The workplaces discussed here include agriculture (bananas), maritime labor (dock workers), manufacturing (apparel, automobiles, medical supplies), food processing, and services (school bus drivers).Kate Bronfenbrenner's introduction sets the stage, followed by contributions describing specific examples from Asia, Latin America, and Europe. Bronfenbrenner's conclusion focuses on the key lessons for strengthening union power in relation to global capital.

Abstract

The most important characteristics of human rights are enumerated in a clear and concise discussion that analyzes the problem of making human rights real, and not just hypothetical, worldwide. Building on definitions of human rights used by the United Nations and other international bodies, and without being sidetracked by nettlesome discussions of specific troubling cases of rights abuses, the author describes the main characteristics of the system of human rights. He focuses on universality, interdependence, differences between types of rights, absolute or limited rights, the subjects of rig

Abstract

Comment s’articulent les droits de l’homme et les libertés économiques au sein des systèmes juridiques ? En ce début de 3e millénaire la question revêt une actualité plus forte que jamais.On constate, en effet, que des organisations et institutions qui font prévaloir les considérations marchandes affichent de façon croissante leur préoccupation pour le respect des droits de l’homme et la valorisation de comportements éthiques, qu’il s’agisse de l’Union européenne, de l’Organisation mondiale du commerce ou des grandes entreprises. À cela s’ajoute la conviction, comme l’avait affirmé Norberto Bobbio il y a plus de cinquante ans, que les conséquences des activités économiques constituent, avec les effets des innovations technologiques, les principaux défis contemporains que doivent affronter les droits de l’homme. Leur garantie ne doit plus être pensée uniquement vis-à-vis des pouvoirs publics mais aussi vis-à-vis des personnes privées, et notamment des entreprises. Mêlant réflexions théoriques et études de cas dans une optique délibérément comparative, cet ouvrage propose d’observer et d’analyser, au sein des ordres juridiques nationaux, européens et international, les différentes façons dont se résout la confrontation entre les droits de l’homme et les libertés liées aux activités marchandes.

Abstract

Human Rights and the Ethics of Globalization provides a balanced, thoughtful discussion of the globalization of the economy and the ethical considerations inherent in the many changes it has prompted. The book's introduction maps out the philosophical foundations for constructing an ethic of globalization, taking into account both traditional and contemporary sources. These ideals are applied to four specific test cases: the ethics of investing in China, the case study of the Firestone company's presence in Liberia, free-trade and fair-trade issues pertaining to the coffee trade with Ethiopia and the use of low-wage factories in Mexico to serve the U.S. market. The book concludes with a comprehensive discussion of how to enforce global compliance with basic human rights standards, with particular attention to stopping abuses by multinational corporations through litigation under the Alien Tort Claims Act.

Abstract

Les contributions réunies dans le présent ouvrage ont été présentées lors d'une journée d'étude et de séances de recyclages organisées les 11, 18, 25 mai et 1er juin 1984 par la Faculté de droit des Facultés universitaires Saint-Louis. L'ensemble de ces manifestations a été essentiellement conçu à la suite de deux questions qui, pour l'instant, sous-tendent le rapport droit-psychiatrie : le dialogue entre juristes et psychiatres est-il possible ; quelle réforme apporter au droit des malades et déficients mentaux ? Les auteurs ont tenté, au niveau tant théorique que pratique, de fournir les éléments d'information et de réflexion susceptibles de contribuer à une meilleure compréhension d'un débat assurément difficile et qui demeure d'une grande actualité.
