We leven in een post-truth-tijdperk, waarin het onveiligheidsgevoel groeit, de kloof tussen arm en rijk groter dan ooit is en het 'wij-eerst'-denken allesoverheersend lijkt te zijn. Maar laten we ons niet allemaal te makkelijk meeslepen in een collectieve angstpsychose? Wat staat onze kinderen morgen in hemelsnaam te wachten? Veel goeds, aldus Peter Adriaenssens, als we ten minste allemaal onze verantwoordelijkheid nemen om de verharding in onze samenleving tegen te gaan en samen een antwoord zoeken op de uitdagingen van de 21ste eeuw. Omdat leven in complexe tijden helemaal niet negatief hoeft te zijn, integendeel zelfs.Bron: https://www.lannoo.be/nl/verbolgen-verbonden-0

The book discusses police practices in Uganda, which are understood as fluid and reflective of the socio-political, cognitive and discursive contexts within which the Uganda Police Force (UPF) exist. The author was immersed in the UPF both as an ethnographer and a consultant. The book demonstrates how police officers navigate clashes between personal interests and those of the UPF shedding more light on the divergences and convergences between policies in theory and policies in practice. It contributes to the literature on police research, especially to our understanding of policing and the anthropology of the state in Africa. It highlights that the Ugandan police engages in political policing and its role is stretched beyond its legal mandate. The target audience is twofold: first, academics interested in police studies and the undercurrents of interface bureaucracies in Africa. Second, practitioners focused on improving state and police services in African contexts.

This book describes the nature of trafficking in persons in West Africa, focusing on labor and sexual exploitation in the region, and recommends tailor-made solutions established by the Catholic Church in light of governmental authorities' failure to effectively combat this scourge of humanity. While states' efforts to fulfill their international obligations in developing anti-trafficking legislations are recognized, their failure to carry out prosecutions of offenders and ensure protection of the victims reveals that law alone is not a sufficient instrument for realizing human rights and improving people's lives. Faced with the sobering background of less than successful efforts by governmental entities to end the trade in humans, this research study recommends adopting essential elements of Catholic social teaching, which rests on the inherent dignity of human beings allowing the development of political, socio-cultural, and religious reforms that will increase the effectiveness of existing legislation designed to combat trafficking. This faith-based approach highlights the role that religion may play in fulfilling the discretionary provisions of the Palermo Protocol by promoting the welfare and protecting the life and dignity of the victims. Additionally, religion is composed of sound moral ethics that determine people's behavior to refrain from the sinful conduct of trafficking. It also creates a sense of ethical responsibility that promotes supply chain transparency and ethical purchasing as well as advocating social reforms and anti-trafficking legislations initiatives. In fact, the author's approach, may be a model for other regions in the world and will be of interest to scholars, law and policy makers, human rights advocates and law enforcement agents working in the field of trafficking in persons. .

?Wormmaan? van Mariken Heitman gaat over Elke die na tegenslag op haar werk met een vergeten erwtenras naar een Waddeneiland vertrekt. Ze wil de erwt, een tweeslachtig ras dat zich nauwelijks laat sturen, terugbrengen naar zijn wilde kern. Elke realiseert zich dat zij gewassen vormt zoals de maatschappij háár probeert te vormen. Wie of wat blijft er over als je alles afpelt dat door anderen aan je werd opgedrongen? Parallel aan Elkes zoektocht verhalen onze voorouders over Ra, eenling op drift, die aansluiting zoekt bij wat later de eerste boeren zullen blijken. Ra, net als Elke in het heden, lijkt nergens bij te passen. Moet deze mens veranderen, of de groep ? of misschien hun gezamenlijke wereldbeeld? Langzaam wordt duidelijk hoe de mens altijd op zoek is naar oorsprong, identiteit en betekenis. ?Wormmaan? is een ontroerende zoektocht inwaarts waarin dwergolifanten, erwten en de wording van een mens samenkomen.https://www.atlascontact.nl/boek/wormmaan/

This book provides a brief introduction to the growing field of animal maltreatment evaluation and treatment, with a special emphasis on clinical training from a forensic psychology perspective. Geared toward mental health practitioners, students, and educators, this broad overview focuses on foundational legal concepts, applications in clinical and psycholegal settings, and emerging perspectives on effective evaluation and treatment. The authors provide practical guidance around "real world" scenarios through the use of clinical case vignettes, highlighting the complexities and need for culturally- and psychologically-informed care in these cases. Key topics include forensic animal maltreatment evaluations (or FAMEs); implications for best practices; challenges for providers, trainees, and supervisors; and future directions for the field. Thorough description of FAME and how to conduct them; Includes overview of the current training model and challenges; Case vignettes offer practical guidance around "real world" scenarios.

This book is concerned with the importance of Human Computer Interaction (HCI), Usability, user participants, and Sustainability in the Information Communication Technology (ICT) industry throughout the world. ICTs have become a crucial instrument for communication, entertainment, commerce and research and this increased usage is presenting new environmental and sustainability issues as we try and meet the ever-growing needs of both businesses and individuals. Sustainability and sustainable design must become central to the design of new technologies to make a concerted effort to tackle the environmental concerns we face now and in the future. Development frameworks, tools and models are used and explored, and the New Participative Methodology for Sustainable Design (NPMSD) is introduced as a way of identifying key factors needed in developing more sustainable systems including new smart technology and portable devices. In this book, the sustainable step in the design stage is evaluated and assessed by 11 countries: namely, Australia, Brazil, China, Germany, India, Norway, Singapore, South Korea, Sweden, UK, and USA. The new results are generated confirming that sustainable design awareness should be considered by designers, and users to minimize and reduce the carbon emissions, raw materials usage, and global warming, since these problems should be tackled soon, otherwise, it will be too late to solve it. Further research is needed in the future to implement and assess the sustainable design step with large IT companies to ensure compliance with environmental standards and rules for sustainable systems. Sustainable Design is an invaluable resource for students and researchers, designers and business managers who are interested in the human-centered, environmental concerns of sustainable technologies. .
