Download or read book The Declaration of Independence written by David Armitage and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2007-01-15 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a stunningly original look at the American Declaration of Independence, David Armitage reveals the document in a new light: through the eyes of the rest of the world. Not only did the Declaration announce the entry of the United States onto the world stage, it became the model for other countries to follow. Armitage examines the Declaration as a political, legal, and intellectual document, and is the first to treat it entirely within a broad international framework. He shows how the Declaration arose within a global moment in the late eighteenth century similar to our own. He uses over one hundred declarations of independence written since 1776 to show the influence and role the U.S. Declaration has played in creating a world of states out of a world of empires. He discusses why the framers’ language of natural rights did not resonate in Britain, how the document was interpreted in the rest of the world, whether the Declaration established a new nation or a collection of states, and where and how the Declaration has had an overt influence on independence movements—from Haiti to Vietnam, and from Venezuela to Rhodesia. Included is the text of the U.S. Declaration of Independence and sample declarations from around the world. An eye-opening list of declarations of independence since 1776 is compiled here for the first time. This unique global perspective demonstrates the singular role of the United States document as a founding statement of our modern world.
Book Synopsis The Declaration of Interdependence by : David Suzuki
Download or read book The Declaration of Interdependence written by David Suzuki and published by Greystone Books Ltd. This book was released on 2022-05-10 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Calling all people to become stewards of the earth, this exquisite edition is a heartfelt plea for the planet's preservation. The Declaration of Interdependence—both an enlightening creed and a passionate call to action—was composed by David Suzuki and a team of activists and environmentalists in 1992, in recognition of the United Nations' Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro. This compelling statement of environmental principles progresses through three stages: “This We Know,” “This We Believe,” and “This We Resolve.” In this exquisitely designed edition, artist Michael Nicoll Yahgulanaas brings this powerful creed to life using imagery from cultures around the world, interpreted through his dynamic Haida Manga style. The declaration is followed by an inspiring essay by David Suzuki. An epilogue by Tara Cullis, president and co-founder of the David Suzuki Foundation, reveals the history and achievements of the foundation, one of North America's most active and successful environmental organizations. Published in partnership with the David Suzuki Foundation.
Book Synopsis Declarations of Interdependence by : Professor Kirsten Anker
Download or read book Declarations of Interdependence written by Professor Kirsten Anker and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2014-10-28 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book takes up the postcolonial challenge for law and explains how the problems of legal recognition for Indigenous peoples are tied to an orthodox theory of law. Constructing a theory of legal pluralism that is both critical of law's epistemological and ontological presuppositions, as well as discursive in engaging a dialogue between legal traditions, Anker focusses on prominent aspects of legal discourse and process such as sovereignty, proof, cultural translation and negotiation. With case studies and examples principally drawn from Australia and Canada, the book seeks to set state law in front of its own reflection in the mirror of Indigenous rights, drawing on a broad base of scholarship in addition to legal theory, from philosophy, literary studies, anthropology, social theory, Indigenous studies and art. As a contribution to legal theory, the study advances legal pluralist approaches not just by imagining a way to ‘make space for’ Indigenous legal traditions, but by actually working with their insights in building theory. The book will be of value to students and researchers interested in Indigenous rights as well as those working in the areas of socio-legal studies, legal pluralism and law and cultural diversity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the 30th anniversary of this beloved book comes a beautifully designed new edition urging environmental stewardship for a new generation.

Book excerpt: From one of America's foremost historians, Inventing America compares Thomas Jefferson's original draft of the Declaration of Independence with the final, accepted version, thereby challenging many long-cherished assumptions about both the man and the document. Although Jefferson has long been idealized as a champion of individual rights, Wills argues that in fact his vision was one in which interdependence, not self-interest, lay at the foundation of society. "No one has offered so drastic a revision or so close or convincing an analysis as Wills has . . . The results are little short of astonishing" —(Edmund S. Morgan, New York Review of Books)

Download or read book The Universal Declaration of Human Rights in the 21st Century written by Gordon Brown and published by Open Book Publishers. This book was released on 2016-04-18 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Global Citizenship Commission was convened, under the leadership of former British Prime Minister Gordon Brown and the auspices of NYU’s Global Institute for Advanced Study, to re-examine the spirit and stirring words of The Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The result – this volume – offers a 21st-century commentary on the original document, furthering the work of human rights and illuminating the ideal of global citizenship. What does it mean for each of us to be members of a global community? Since 1948, the Declaration has stood as a beacon and a standard for a better world. Yet the work of making its ideals real is far from over. Hideous and systemic human rights abuses continue to be perpetrated at an alarming rate around the world. Too many people, particularly those in power, are hostile to human rights or indifferent to their claims. Meanwhile, our global interdependence deepens. Bringing together world leaders and thinkers in the fields of politics, ethics, and philosophy, the Commission set out to develop a common understanding of the meaning of global citizenship – one that arises from basic human rights and empowers every individual in the world. This landmark report affirms the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and seeks to renew the 1948 enterprise, and the very ideal of the human family, for our day and generation.

Book Synopsis 2nd Declaration of Interdependence: Advocate by : J.S. Christian
Download or read book 2nd Declaration of Interdependence: Advocate written by J.S. Christian and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2020-12-09 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Declaration of Interdependence: Advocate Poetically! is a poetic compilation of talking points on timely challenging subject matter. It is altogether expressions of Alternate History, Dark Humor and art. Declarations ... Advocate Poetically! can also be viewed as proverbial reflections on topics which may be too difficult to discuss otherwise. It steps around political correctness straight into what "Plotters" and “Insiders" do. Declarations of Interdependence; Advocate Poetically! is in places set against the dystopian backdrop of a pandemic, election year and the worldwide social justice unrest pertaining thereto. Declarations' voices wax poetic while everyone else shouts. Voices vary toward same goals of Unity and for civility to reign over discord. Fictitious scenarios with public domain photos are woven together to enhance some expressions. None are intended to imply endorsement; just bring art to life. Subjects range from the complexities of political protests to the more light hearted “Chocolate for President”. Declaration steps into the fray of divisive topics giving proverbial poetic script for dialogue. It states sides - without taking sides. While the poetic voices are fictitious, the subjects may ring true for many in the reading audience. Or not. A wide range of voices are heard in Declarations; mostly human. The Declarations compilation is divided into six books by topics; Unity, Schools, Mental 'Wealth', Enforcement, Veterans and Love. Most voices are human. In Book III an obscured tree appreciates ”Quin-tree-esential” acknowledgement while disgruntled “Furniture” join a protest. The people, animals and inanimates excluded were not purposely left out. BLM “Resolution” depiction is not intended as an affront to whomever is their equal and opposite. “Chosen Outfits” in Book IV Enforcement likely agree with voice of "Comply". Viewpoints dapple in alternate history topics like education injustices and hate crimes in “Carlsbad Decree Lament”. Plights of Native Americans are expressed in “Nothing New for Sioux” . The final Declarations are for love; from the romantic and detailed "Making Love" to "Love 4 Country". Declaration speaks to an interdependently diverse audience by poetically looking through lenses of both the observer and observed. “Just in Case” and “Swimming Lessons” cry out for educational accountability. While the “Hearty Farmer” simply could care less. In agreement or not, we are interdependently bound together in the United States of America. Declaration of Interdependence; Advocate Poetically! provides poetic encounters we may not have the opportunity to experience otherwise. Declaration... gives audiences voices of reflective experiences. It offers empathetic insight along its poetic way from Unity to Love. Enjoy!

Download or read book Our Declaration: A Reading of the Declaration of Independence in Defense of Equality written by Danielle Allen and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2014-06-23 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Francis Parkman Prize, Society of American Historians “A tour de force. . . . No one has ever written a book on the Declaration quite like this one.”—Gordon Wood, New York Review of Books Featured on the front page of the New York Times, Our Declaration is already regarded as a seminal work that reinterprets the promise of American democracy through our founding text. Combining a personal account of teaching the Declaration with a vivid evocation of the colonial world between 1774 and 1777, Allen, a political philosopher renowned for her work on justice and citizenship reveals our nation’s founding text to be an animating force that not only changed the world more than two-hundred years ago, but also still can. Challenging conventional wisdom, she boldly makes the case that the Declaration is a document as much about political equality as about individual liberty. Beautifully illustrated throughout, Our Declaration is an “uncommonly elegant, incisive, and often poetic primer on America’s cardinal text” (David M. Kennedy).

Book Synopsis Rebalancing Society by : Henry Mintzberg
Download or read book Rebalancing Society written by Henry Mintzberg and published by Berrett-Koehler Publishers. This book was released on 2015-01-05 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enough of the imbalance that is causing the degradation of our environment, the demise of our democracies, and the denigration of ourselves. Enough of the pendulum politics of left and right and paralysis in the political center. We require an unprecedented form of radical renewal. In this book Henry Mintzberg offers a new understanding of the root of our current crisis and a strategy for restoring the balance so vital to the survival of our progeny and our planet. With the collapse of the communist regimes of Eastern Europe, Western pundits declared that capitalism had triumphed. They were wrong—balance triumphed. A healthy society balances a public sector of respected governments, a private sector of responsible businesses, and a plural sector of robust communities. Communism collapsed under the weight of its overbearing public sector. Now the “liberal democracies” are threatened—socially, politically, even economically—by the unchecked excesses of the private sector. Radical renewal will have to begin in the plural sector, which alone has the inclination and the independence to challenge unacceptable practices and develop better ones. Too many governments have been co-opted by the private sector. And corporate social responsibility can't compensate for the corporate social irresponsibility we see around us “They” won't do it. We shall have to do it, each of us and all of us, not as passive “human resources,” but as resourceful human beings. Tom Paine wrote in 1776, “We have it in our power to begin the world over again.” He was right then. Can we be right again now? Can we afford not to be?
