Campaigns Against Gender Violence (1977-1993), Professor Vibhuti Patel

Professor Vibhuti Patel

The women's movement in India launched campaigns against rape, domestic violence, sexism in advertisements as well as against state repression during caste and communal riots in the early eighties. Before that, during the postemergency period of 1977-1980, small groups of women's rights activists in Hyderabad, Bombay, Delhi and Madras had started taking up individual cases of custodial rape, deaths of-housewives under mysterious circumstances and excesses by the state enforcement machinery during caste/communal riots which had increased in number and intensity of violence.

Le Droit À L’Autodétermination Entre Le Sujet Individuel Et Le Sujet Collectif. Réflexions Sur Le Cas Particulier Des Peuples Indigènes, Serge Gutwirth Jan 1998

Le Droit À L’Autodétermination Entre Le Sujet Individuel Et Le Sujet Collectif. Réflexions Sur Le Cas Particulier Des Peuples Indigènes, Serge Gutwirth

Serge Gutwirth

Le droit à l'autodétermination est problématique parce qu'il se prête aussi bien à une interprétation individuelle que collective. Si pour certains le droit à l'autodétermination se réfère automatiquement à l'autonomie et aux libertés de l'individu, pour d'autres le même concept est indissociablement lié à des entités collectives telles que peuples, ensembles nationaux, minorités ethniques, communautés religieuses, groupes, etc. Or, ces deux prises de position ne sont pas aisément conciliables. Les aspirations collectives peuvent limiter les aspirations individuelles, tandis que ces dernières ne s'accordent pas souvent aux premières. Une vie individuelle n'est, de surcroît, jamais simplement ou automatiquement réductible à un …

Themes That Thread Through Society: Racism And Athletic Manifestation In The African-American Community, Keith Harrison

Dr. C. Keith Harrison

The purpose of this article is to examine and critically analyze the impact of sport in the African-American community. This critique of the social and behavioral outcomes of sport in the African-American community will include philosophical, historical, and sociological inquiry most affecting the plight of the African-American male in academics and athletics.

kirby farrell

This is the Introduction to my POST-TRAUMATIC CULTURE: INJURY AND INTERPRETATION IN THE 90s. It develops the premise that trauma is psychophysiogical: an injury that is also an interpretation of an injury. Its analyses show the idea of trauma functioning as a tool that all sorts of people use for a range of purposes.


Dalla Simbologia Giuridica A Una Filosofia Giuridica E Politica Simbolica ? Ovvero Il Diritto E I Sensi, Paulo Ferreira Da Cunha Dec 1997

Dalla Simbologia Giuridica A Una Filosofia Giuridica E Politica Simbolica ? Ovvero Il Diritto E I Sensi, Paulo Ferreira Da Cunha

Paulo Ferreira da Cunha

La prima conseguenza della nostra cultura giuridica dell'audizione che è anche cultura dell'oralità, del discorso e della scrittura (di tutto ciò che serve per parlare e fissare quello che può essere detto) è la volontaria atrofia degli altri sensi: il tatto, il gusto, l'olfatto e la vista. Il Diritto quasi non tocca le cose. Le concepisce mentalmente, le dice, però, anche se con i guanti deve toccare il corpo del delitto.
