Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do miracles really happen? Does God really work in mysterious ways? Can God be trusted when all things seem impossible? Throughout the year, there was a peculiar coercion that inundated his thoughts continuously and a feeling that he must travel back to his hometown. There was someone there he was compelled to meet with; however, he didn't know who or why. Every time he thought he could depart on the journey, something would come up at work or unexpected vehicle repairs, even strange expenses he had never encountered before which all started diminishing his financial resources. The trip back home did not appear to be a reality, but the astonishing yearning that he had to get there lingered with him constantly. He just knew in his mind that he was being led by the Holy Spirit, and this journey had to be fulfilled. She was diagnosed with a life-threatening situation. One surgeon told her one diagnosis, and the second surgeon gave a different opinion. What was she to do? Since her life expectancy is now diminishing, she contacts her younger sister to get encouragement. The author explains how he and his family did not conform to this world but were transformed by the renewal of their minds, that by the testing they did encounter and did discern that this impossible challenge was the will of God just as written in Romans 12:2. He expresses how the love in this family was the real thing expressed in their actions and not just in words. Find out if this family accomplished the impossible assignment that God had given them, and did everything make sense in the end.

Book Synopsis A Natural History of Rape by : Randy Thornhill
Download or read book A Natural History of Rape written by Randy Thornhill and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2001-02-23 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A biologist and an anthropologist use evolutionary biology to explain the causes and inform the prevention of rape. In this controversial book, Randy Thornhill and Craig Palmer use evolutionary biology to explain the causes of rape and to recommend new approaches to its prevention. According to Thornhill and Palmer, evolved adaptation of some sort gives rise to rape; the main evolutionary question is whether rape is an adaptation itself or a by-product of other adaptations. Regardless of the answer, Thornhill and Palmer note, rape circumvents a central feature of women's reproductive strategy: mate choice. This is a primary reason why rape is devastating to its victims, especially young women. Thornhill and Palmer address, and claim to demolish scientifically, many myths about rape bred by social science theory over the past twenty-five years. The popular contention that rapists are not motivated by sexual desire is, they argue, scientifically inaccurate. Although they argue that rape is biological, Thornhill and Palmer do not view it as inevitable. Their recommendations for rape prevention include teaching young males not to rape, punishing rape more severely, and studying the effectiveness of "chemical castration." They also recommend that young women consider the biological causes of rape when making decisions about dress, appearance, and social activities. Rape could cease to exist, they argue, only in a society knowledgeable about its evolutionary causes. The book includes a useful summary of evolutionary theory and a comparison of evolutionary biology's and social science's explanations of human behavior. The authors argue for the greater explanatory power and practical usefulness of evolutionary biology. The book is sure to stir up discussion both on the specific topic of rape and on the larger issues of how we understand and influence human behavior.
Book Synopsis The Politics of Coercion by : Neil Loughlin
Download or read book The Politics of Coercion written by Neil Loughlin and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2024-09-15 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Politics of Coercion, Neil Loughlin explains the persistence of Cambodia's authoritarian regime for more than four decades. It provides a historically grounded investigation of the country's ruling coalition: political elites, many drawn from within the state's coercive apparatus, who, in coordination with state-dependent tycoons, have come to control Cambodia's politics and its economy. Loughlin presents new empirical data foregrounding the coercive underpinnings of the modern Cambodian state and its party, the Cambodian People's Party (CPP). The focus on coercion reflects the regime's conflict and postconflict evolution and extractive political economy as the ruling coalition failed to channel popular interests through its political institutions, thus resorting either to low-intensity forms of coercion such as intimidation and surveillance or to high-intensity coercion such as violent crackdowns and extrajudicial killings. Through a critical reevaluation of the regime's origins and evolution in its relationship with citizens, The Politics of Coercion reconceptualizes the CPP to emphasize the obstacles—structural, institutional, and distributional—to building a mass-based clientelist or developmentally legitimate authoritarian party.

Book Synopsis The Circular Structure of Power by : Torben Bech Dyrberg
Download or read book The Circular Structure of Power written by Torben Bech Dyrberg and published by Verso. This book was released on 1997 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few concepts in social theory have been used so extravagantly in recent years as the notion of power. Yet despite its inflated presence, the term is still unclear and undertheorized. In The Circular Structure of Power, Torben Dyrberg rises to the challenge of conceptualizing power through a philosophical examination of its uses in contemporary social theory. Drawing on the insights of Michel Foucoult, Ernesto Laclau and Chantal Mouffe, Dyrberg brings this continental tradition into a creative dialogue with the Anglo-American tradition represented by figures such as Steven Lukes, William Connolly, Peter Bachrach and Morton Baratz. Moreover, Dyrberg moves from such abstract considerations to their implications for political and democratic theory through an examination of the work of thinkers as diverse as Robert Dahl, John Rawls, Jürgen Habermas and Nicos Poulantzas. Simultaneously engaging with and defying many of the dominant definitions of power, Torben Dyrberg destabilizes and undermines the conventional distinctions and polarities through which power is usually understood. The new perspective offered to us by this investigation is one which goes beyond the assumption that power can be based on and derived from either agency or structure, as if these categories themselves were not somehow constituted by power.

Book Synopsis The Execution of Illegal Orders and International Criminal Responsibility by : Hiromi Sato
Download or read book The Execution of Illegal Orders and International Criminal Responsibility written by Hiromi Sato and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-02-16 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The legal consequence of the superior orders defense has long been debated as one of the major problems in international criminal law. Several controversial issues such as the immunity of the state, the absolute character of military discipline, and immunity on the grounds of mistake of law and/or coercion have been complexly interwoven in the debates. The Execution of Illegal Orders and International Criminal Responsibility provides a comprehensive portrait of the relevant debates at the international level up to the present, analyzes the conflicting views, and shows the significance of the development of international rules for the superior orders defense as well as the implication of the fact that issues concerning some detailed or related rules have been left unresolved. This study presents to present a new standpoint not only on dealing with the problem of the superior orders defense but also on reconsidering the international stipulation of rulemaking with regard to criminal matters.
