Book Synopsis Parental Rites by : Lawrence Kalkstein
Download or read book Parental Rites written by Lawrence Kalkstein and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2012-11-26 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone can relate to the hypocrisy or unfair dispensation of justice in our legal system, especially our court system. We often look at the judiciary as the backbone of our legal system assuming it will be fair and honest. Yet Justice Is Blind can quickly become Justice Acting Blindly. When justice is so callous not to maximize compassion and love for a child we can understand why America has a complete moral breakdown. Often people, mistakenly, refer to those in government as the leaders. Parental Rites is merely one grandfathers thoughts who is trying to come to grasp with the hatred that emanates from the court system and why the system cant be bothered to try and mend family wounds rather than rubbing salt in them. Perhaps the story you are about to read can enlighten others; or perhaps it can help others choose reconciliation over hatred then maybe there is hope for our society. A childhood is too sweet, and too short, to spend battling in court or to carry animosity in ones daily endeavors. We often are told the Judeo-Christian Society is that of compassion and reconciliation. Yet there are those so subsumed in anger and hatred that they merely preach those words on a Sunday but forget them on Monday. So ignore the actual names in this story or interpose your own names of people you know or have heard of that have affected you or your loved ones in a parallel manner, and perhaps you can become a leader in a childs life. We certainly cannot let a judge, or the law guardian for any child, who is more eager to play golf, or get to lunch, than dispense justice be a leader in that childs life.

Book Synopsis AFRICA: Conflict Resolution And International Diplomacy by : Ifeoha Azikiwe
Download or read book AFRICA: Conflict Resolution And International Diplomacy written by Ifeoha Azikiwe and published by Author House. This book was released on 2009-12-22 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Africa has an unenviable record of 100 military coups in the past five decades, and that may not be the last count. The military still holds power in Guinea and Mauritania, while their incursion saw the assassination of President Joao Bernardo Vieira of Guinea-Bissau in March 2009. Fifteen of the 53 African leaders came to power by the force of arm; 23 have been on the throne for more than 10 years. The undemocratic inheritance left behind by military dictators and authoritarian one-party, sit-tight presidents, remain major sources of armed conflicts and civil wars that have claimed well over 20 million lives. The continent has a deluge of 3 million refugees. Out of the 23.7 million IDPs worldwide, 12.6 million are in Africa. Africa: Conflict Resolution And International Diplomacy, reflects on contending issues in contemporary African politics, examines Africa's crisis flash-points and traces various diplomatic initiatives taken by the international community; the UN, AU, EU, the G8, African regional communities and NGOs to ensure peace and stability. Seen purely from an African perspective, Ifeoha Azikiwe delves into the origin, the immediate and remote causes of these conflicts, as well as their cumulative effects and proffers short and long-term preventive measures. He foresees new conflicts erupting from desperate attempts to promote and institutionalise "democratic monarchy" - a recipe for future conflicts. Looking forward, he concludes by highlighting current initiatives, economic and political strategies that could fast-track the process towards full continental integration and formation of a "United States of Africa". Although a number of issues raised in the book may seem unpalatable, the author believes that the time has come to tell us some basic truth, if only to curb excessive impunity, uncanny democratic practices, external manipulations and neo-colonial tendencies that exacerbate conflicts in Africa

Download or read book Kyoto2 written by Oliver Tickell and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2009-01-26 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Kyoto Protocol, the world's first tentative step towards avoiding the threat of climate change, has failed. We urgently need a new course of action. In Kyoto2 the author presents us with a strikingly original new solution. Using a system of finite production rights for greenhouse gases, which would be traded by organisations on a global auction, Kyoto2 seeks to succeed where the original agreement failed. Regulated by an independent body, the funds could be poured back into healing the wounds inflicted by climate change. In his combination of idealism with realistic proposals, Tickell exposes the flaws in current approaches, and envisions a fairer and more effective system. Kyoto2 promises to banish the dejection of the post-Kyoto era, reviving hope that the cure for the crisis facing our planet is still achievable.

Book Synopsis An Incredible God by : Werner Bürklin
Download or read book An Incredible God written by Werner Bürklin and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2015-10-24 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Incredible God: China and Her Encounter with God balances the immense scope of any treatment of a country as varied in geography and as diverse in its ethnicities as is China with the intimate portraits that emerge from profiling individuals who face and surmount obstacles to living by faith. The Reverend Dr. Werner Brklin, born in China to German Christian missionary parents, who has served as a missionary, draws upon personal insights and his years of study to accomplish this balancing act. An Incredible God introduces the reader to China, pulling back the veil on its culture and character and illuminating both the history of the Christian church and its work to spread the good news of Jesus Christ. Along the way, An Incredible God covers topics like the interactions of Christianity and Communism, the role of theological education, the importance of the Scriptures, and the prevalence of misconceptions about China. On the intimate and personal side, An Incredible God presents people like Wang Mingdao, who survived imprisonment for his faith during the Cultural Revolution. The presentations place the individuals in their historical context and show how their faith sustained them. An Incredible God: China and Her Encounter with God speaks to all who desire to know more about the history of the Christian church in China, to understand more about the faith of individual Christians, and to gain a deeper appreciation for the amazing changes God causes when he encounters people with the good news of Jesus Christ.
