Sex and World Peace

Sex and World Peace

Columbia University Press
2012
sidottu
Sex and World Peace unsettles a variety of assumptions in political and security discourse, demonstrating that the security of women is a vital factor in the security of the state and its incidence of conflict and war. The authors compare micro-level gender violence and macro-level state peacefulness in global settings, supporting their findings with detailed analyses and color maps. Harnessing an immense amount of data, they call attention to discrepancies between national laws protecting women and the enforcement of those laws, and they note the adverse effects on state security of abnormal sex ratios favoring males, the practice of polygamy, and inequitable realities in family law, among other gendered aggressions. The authors find that the treatment of women informs human interaction at all levels of society. Their research challenges conventional definitions of security and democracy and shows that the treatment of gender, played out on the world stage, informs the true clash of civilizations. In terms of resolving these injustices, the authors examine top-down and bottom-up approaches to healing wounds of violence against women, as well as ways to rectify inequalities in family law and the lack of parity in decision-making councils. Emphasizing the importance of an R2PW, or state responsibility to protect women, they mount a solid campaign against women's systemic insecurity, which effectively unravels the security of all.

The U.S. Air Force asked RAND Project AIR FORCE to determine where it is most fruitful to focus effort in making changes to tactics, techniques, and procedures to improve an airman's ability to detect, evaluate, and mitigate significant corruption of logistics data. The goal is to respond to errors in data before they have a significant negative effect on combat operations.

CThis easy-to-administer tool consists of two tests on separate "streams" of development: visual-motor functioning and expressive and receptive language development. These tests help pinpoint any instances of delay (a slower rate of milestone acquisition), deviancy (any unusual development within a specific stream), and dissociation (an uneven rate of milestone acquisition). Fast and easy to complete, The Capute Scales require minimal equipment and can be administered in just 6 to 20 minutes. Because the tests measure functioning across two streams of development, The Capute Scales help clinicians distinguish between global developmental delays and specific areas of concern. This product is sold in a package of 20.

Näiden aiemmin suomentamattomien ja hyvin erilaisten tarinoiden maailma kuhisee yliluonnollisia ja kammottavia vieraita: eloon herääviä kuolleita, aavemaisia ilmestyksiä, irvisteleviä pääkalloja, paholaismaisia hirviöitä, kuolettavia rakastettuja ja muuta klassisen kauhukirjallisuuden kuvastoa.Kokoelman ehdoton helmi on Middlemarchin ja Daniel Derondan kirjoittajan George Eliotin ainoa hairahdus kauhukirjallisuuden puolelle: niminovelli Kohotettu huntu kuvaa päähenkilönsä, romanttisen antisankarin Latimerin yritystä ymmärtää yliluonnollisia kykyjään ja saavuttamatonta rakkautensa kohdetta Berthaa. Latimer joutuu kuitenkin huomaamaan liian myöhään, että jotkut salaisuudet on syytä jättää tietämättömyyden hunnun taakse. Antologian muita kirjoittajia ovat Ambrose Bierce, Jerome K. Jerome, Mary Elizabeth Braddon, Barry Pain, J.Y. Akerman ja E. F. Benson, jonka novelli Mies joka meni liian pitkälle on romantiikan kauhutarinoiden klassikko.Novelliantologian on toimittanut Jussi Tuomas Kivi.

A fascinating and intimate novel of the life of Mary Todd Lincoln, narrated by the First Lady herself Mary Todd Lincoln is one of history s most misunderstood and enigmatic women. She was a political strategist, a supporter of emancipation, and a mother who survived the loss of three children and the assassination of her beloved husband. She also ran her family into debt, held seances in the White House, and was committed to an insane asylum which is where Janis Cooke Newman s debut novel begins. From her room in Bellevue Place, Mary chronicles her tempestuous childhood in a slaveholding Southern family and takes readers through the years after her husband s death, revealing the ebbs and flows of her passion and depression, her poverty and ridicule, and her ultimate redemption."

A gripping tale of youth, first love, and nostalgia. - Written in 1925, Mary is Nabokov's first novel. Like his other early masterpieces, it bears witness to Nabokov's sensual mastery of language. "In MARY we see him evoking the first of what became an increasingly brilliant series of worlds." - Newsweek In a Berlin rooming house filled with an assortment of seriocomic Russian migr s, Lev Ganin, a vigorous young officer poised between his past and his future, relives his first love affair. His memories of Mary are suffused with the freshness of youth and the idyllic ambience of pre-revolutionary Russia. In stark contrast is the decidedly unappealing boarder living in the room next to Ganin's, who, he discovers, is Mary's husband, temporarily separated from her by the Revolution but expecting her imminent arrival from Russia.

In recent years Mary has stepped out of the closet of piety and devotion and become the subject of serious theological study and work. For too long Mary was an icon for the repression of women by a male dominated Church, but now Mary is seen as a vital theological symbol, a symbol of true femininity and true humanity for the Church and the modern world. Jung has argued that the Definition of the Doctrine of the Assumption was the most important religious event since the Reformation: the feminine principle has been absorbed into the Godhead. Yet amongst some modern Catholics, as well as most Protestant Christians, the Virgin Mary is still seen as someone who has a very small part to play in the drama of salvation and creation. In Mary, Sarah Jane Boss seeks to correct this view. She argues that Christian theology should conceive of the created order, both physical and spiritual, as sacred in the highest degree, and that this understanding is already implicit in traditions of Marian doctrine and devotion. Far from being peripheral this understanding of Mary is central to Christian doctrine. It must underlie any attempt to answer the fundamental ethical questions of our age, namely that of the extent to which human beings are entitled to intervene in the natural order.
