Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is often said that you can judge a society by the way it treats its weaker members. This book takes this theme and examines the ways in which different aspects of children's lives are treated in a number of societies. To this end it uses the conduit of children's rights. The importance of children's rights as an ideology and in practice is critically examined by a group of academics and practitioners with an international reputation and wide experience and insight. The book offers an understanding of the moral foundations of children's rights and enables all those in whatever discipline to gain a deeper understanding of an issue which has assumed major importance with the passing of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although they make significant contributions to the world's work and well-being, often despite severe legal and economic handicaps and social victimization, people under age twenty-one and over age sixty are "excluded sectors" of the world population. While the life situation of the young and the old varies according to cultural tradition and extent of modernization, industrialization brings increasing restrictions on the young and the elderly, and a load of legal and civic responsibilities on people in the narrow 25-55 age range. The special cognitive, emphathic, and futures-creating capacities of the young and the old, each at their own kind of biosocial peak, are therefore eliminated from the social process. Boulding emphasizes two particular aspects of personhood--as something that is continually growing and differentiating throughout life, and the special androgynous qualities of the prepubertal and postmenopausal stages of life for males and females alike--that have significant implications for the creation of more humanistic, egalitarian, and peaceful societies. The capabilities of personhood and the age-graded social institutions which pattern their expression are mismatched; practices of physical as well as psychological and social abuse of the young and the old by the middle-years population is increasing in industrialized countries. The author proposes that age be introduced as a classificatory principle in the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights, so that rights now proclaimed for all other categories of human beings except the young and the old can also be made available to these two groups. She pleas for a realistic evaluation of the capacities and contributions to society of children, youth, and the aged, and for the involvement of these excluded sectors in civil life and social and political decision making at every level-from the local to the global.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "1989 certainly represents one of those moments. yet, when IPRA held its 12th General Conference in August 1988, few of the participants imagined that within the space of 13 months popular social movements would topple socialist regimes in Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary and the German Democratic Republic.Nobody imagined the Berlin wall or the wire fence between Hungary and Austria being dismantled. Even fewer contemplated the overthrow of the Ceaucescu regime in Rumania, pluralistic politics in Bulgaria, a single German economy or a reunited Germany."

Download or read book Human Rights, Education & Global Responsibilities written by James Lynch and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-07-10 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1992. This is Volume 4 of a series of four on Cultural Diversity and the Schools and focusses on Human Rights, Education and Global Responsibilities. One of the major problems facing societies in almost all parts of the world is the inadequate accommodation of social equity with cultural diversity. The crisis emanating from neglect of this issue can be seen in societies as different and wide apart as the Soviet Union, India, Pakistan, the United States and the United Kingdom. This series seeks to contribute, through joint publication and the stimulation of greater discourse, to identify the pathways to a less selfish and parochial response to the continuing dilemma of equity and diversity, not solely within the nation state, but also internationally.

Download or read book Child Slaves written by Peter Lee-Wright and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-11-05 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Portugal, 12-year-olds manufacture clothes destined for British chain-stores. In Brazil, children work more than nine hours a day glueing shoes for sale in the West. This book, based on research done with the co-operation of the Anti-Slavery Society for a recent major BBC television documentary, exposes the scandalous exploitation of children's labour and services throughout the world - a system from which the national economies of Europe and the USA profit. What is eaten, worn and used every day in Western homes is all too often produced at the expense of poor children's welfare. Sugar and shoes from Brazil, tea and textiles from Bangladesh, carpets and brassware from India, vegetables from Mexico, furniture from the Philippines - such goods and commodities may well depend upon the labour of children who are the victims of an inequitable economic order. The other side of the coin is that as travel to the Third World increases - in Bangkok, Manila, Rio -.juveniles are forced to sell their bodies to Western tourists who can provide easy income to those in the lower reaches of poverty. Peter Lee-Wright graphically shows in words and photographs that the shameful exploitation of children is not confined to any one culture or industry. It is a problem that involves us all.
