Book Synopsis Post-Conflict Reconstruction by : Neil Ferguson
Download or read book Post-Conflict Reconstruction written by Neil Ferguson and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2010-10-12 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Violence and conflict are two of the greatest challenges the world will face in this millennium. Indeed, since the turn of the century, it is estimated that approximately four million people have died as a result of armed conflict. Ending these seemingly intractable conflicts is a priority for global stability. However, the signing of the peace accord or the ending of formal hostilities does not automatically bring a return to normality in these fractured societies. In practice, it is more likely that these fractured societies will face a period in the twilight between war and peace, a time when the world turns its attention to new problems and seemingly more pressing matters, leaving the country to struggle towards peace and a new social order. The book’s contributors deal with the challenges faced in creating the foundations for the development of a positive peace from a variety of multi-disciplinary perspectives, such as development studies, politics, psychoanalysis, psychology, sports studies and neuroscience. This breadth of perspectives offers innovative insights into the grey space between war and peace, which is home to millions of people across the globe and explores interventions which aim to create the conditions for positive post-conflict reconstruction.

Download or read book Yemen in Crisis written by Helen Lackner and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2019-04-30 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Expert analysis of Yemen's social and political crisis, with profound implications for the fate of the Arab World The democratic promise of the 2011 Arab Spring has unraveled in Yemen, triggering a disastrous crisis of civil war, famine, militarization, and governmental collapse with serious implications for the future of the region. Yet as expert political researcher Helen Lackner argues, the catastrophe does not have to continue, and we can hope for and help build a different future in Yemen. Fueled by Arab and Western intervention, the civil war has quickly escalated, resulting in thousands killed and millions close to starvation. Suffering from a collapsed economy, the people of Yemen face a desperate choice between the Huthi rebels on the one side and the internationally recognized government propped up by the Saudi-led coalition and Western arms on the other. In this invaluable analysis, Helen Lackner uncovers the roots of the social and political conflicts that threaten the very survival of the state and its people. Importantly, she argues that we must understand the roots of the current crisis so that we can hope for a different future for Yemen and the Middle East. With a preface exploring the US’s central role in the crisis.

Book excerpt: In November 2011, an agreement brokered by the GCC brought an end to Yemen's tumultuous uprising. The National Dialogue Conference has opened a window of opportunity for change, bringing Yemen's main political forces together with groups that were politically marginalized. Yet, the risk of collapse is serious, and if Yemen is to remain a viable state, it must address numerous political, social and economic challenges. In this invaluable volume, experts with extensive Yemen experience provide innovative analysis of the country's major crises: centralized governance, the role of the military, ethnic conflict, separatism, Islamism, foreign intervention, water scarcity and economic development. This is essential reading for academi, journalists, development workers, diplomats, politicians and students alike. 'Essential reading ...

Book Synopsis Even war discriminates by : Rania El Rajji
Download or read book Even war discriminates written by Rania El Rajji and published by Minority Rights Group. This book was released on 2016-01-13 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the onset of the Saudi-led military campaign in March 2015, the conflict in Yemen has dramatically escalated, resulting in thousands of deaths and injuries. Millions are now struggling with internal displacement and the risk of further violence, with no end to hostilities in sight. This situation has been exacerbated by a protracted blockade by the international coalition, severely restricting the import of much needed supplies of food, water and medicine. Though the impacts of ongoing insecurity and the deepening humanitarian crisis have affected all of Yemen's civilian population, the country's religious and ethnic minorities are especially vulnerable due to their long history of exclusion. Even war discriminates: Yemen’s minorities, exiled at home highlights the particular challenges facing its most marginalized groups and the ways that established patterns of discrimination have deepened in the context of the current conflict. Besides exploring the experiences of religious minorities such as Yemen's Jewish community against a backdrop of rising extremism, the report also examines how the Muhamasheen -- a group traditionally sidelined from Yemen's social hierarchy -- have struggled to access land, protection or humanitarian assistance due to their continued treatment as second-class citizens. The report provides a series of recommendations for the Yemeni government, the international community and all parties to the conflict to ensure the safety and wellbeing of the civilian population is prioritized, with particular attention paid to the country's minorities.

Book Synopsis The Making of Islamic Heritage by : Trinidad Rico
Download or read book The Making of Islamic Heritage written by Trinidad Rico and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-06-13 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license. Offering key insights into critical debates on the construction, management and destruction of heritage in Muslim contexts, this volume considers how Islamic heritages are constructed through texts and practices which award heritage value. It examines how the monolithic representation of Islamic heritage (as a singular construct) can be enriched by the true diversity of Islamic heritages and how endangerment and vulnerability in this type of heritage construct can be re-conceptualized. Assessing these questions through an interdisciplinary lens including heritage studies, anthropology, history, conservation, religious studies and archaeology, this pivot covers global and local examples including heritage case studies from Indonesia, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Jordan, and Pakistan.

Book Synopsis Education and the Arab Spring by : Hannah R. Gerber
Download or read book Education and the Arab Spring written by Hannah R. Gerber and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-07-15 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Education and the Arab Spring: Resistance, Reform, and Democracy explores the current debate about education in the Middle East and North Africa post-Arab Spring. It draws from a variety of conceptual frameworks rooted in different disciplines and fields, such as education, religious and cultural studies, political science, and Arab studies. The book is, in part, a response to an increased demand since the Arab Spring – by universities, cultural institutions, think-tanks, education officials, policymakers and journalists – for a richer, deeper understanding of the role of education in post-Arab Spring states and societies. The book adds a unique and much-needed perspective to this field: its specific focus is on the Arab context, and its analysis is of issues of particular relevance to a changing world order. The great mix of experiences of the contributors attests to the excellent quality of this promising work. “It is not infrequent to hear sweeping but general criticisms of all aspects of educational systems in the Arab world – everything from textbooks to teaching methodologies have come under scrutiny. The authors of this collection seek to move the debate beyond generalities by providing detailed studies; while informed by a sense of the inadequacy of existing systems, they also provide an empirically rich analysis of existing systems.” – Nathan Brown, George Washington University, USA
