This book rigorously investigates the contemporary state of children's rights and the multifaceted challenges facing children, uncovering the complexities at their core. In 1989, the United Nations introduced the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC), ratified by 196 nations, promising a world where children's rights would reign supreme. In practice, however, realising these rights proves intricate and often precarious. Policies may shine on paper, but their implementation grapples with the challenges posed by global governance structures, national strategies, and local factors. Over three decades since the CRC's inception, this book scrutinises the true efficacy of international commitments, shedding light on underexplored issues and revealing shortcomings in both discourse and actions. With diverse, interdisciplinary perspectives, it recognises the profound influence of global and transnational forces in generating outcomes that impact children's rights and welfare.
The result of the combined work of Frédéric BRÉMAUD and Jean-Claude BAUER – the latter having covered the 1987 trial for Antenne 2 – KLAUS BARBIE, THE RAT'S ROUTE retraces the life of one of the greatest war criminals of the 20th century. Drawing on historical sources and the participation of Jean-Olivier VIOUT, the Deputy General Prosecutor during this historic trial, as well as Serge KLARSFELD, a staunch advocate for the cause of Jewish deportees – who pens the foreword to this work – they deliver a necessary narrative, bearing witness to one of the most resonant trials in history.
Can someone deceive their beloved in order to protect them from the cruel truth of love? Like decomposed magnets that first repel and then attract, the characters in this comedic tragedy of entanglements oscillate between love and disillusionment, between fantasy and reality, between dream and wakefulness. In the confusion of these parallel lives, they lose themselves in a hazy reality that becomes clear when everyone accepts that they have deceived and been deceived.
Makes available, for the first time in English translation, four of the principal narrative sources for the history of the Spanish kingdom of León-Castile during the eleventh and twelfth centuries. Three chronicles focus primarily upon the activities of the kings of León-Castile as leaders of the Reconquest of Spain from the forces of Islam, and especially upon Fernando I (1037-65), his son Alfonso VI (1065-1109) and the latter's grandson Alfonso VII (1126-57). The fourth chronicle is a biography of the hero Rodrigo Díaz, better remembered as El Cid, and is the main source of information about his extraordinary career as a mercenary soldier who fought for Christian and Muslim alike. Covers the fascinating interaction of the Muslim and Christian worlds, each at the height of their power. Each text is prefaced by its own introduction and accompanied by explanatory notes.
Building upon the book Disappearing Destinations (Jones and Phillips 2010) and its conclusion that promoted the need to recognize problems, meet expectations and manage solutions Global Climate Change and Coastal Tourism explores current threats to, and consequences of, climate change on existing tourism coastal destinations. Part 1 of the book provides a theoretical platform and addresses topics such as sustainability, tourism impacts, governance trade and innovation and how the media addresses climate change and tourism. It also assesses management and policy options for the future sustainability of threatened tourism coastal destinations. Part 2 presents case studies from all regions of the world (Europe, The Americas, Asia, Africa and Australasia) which synthesise findings to make recommendations that can be used to promote strategies that ameliorate projected impacts of climate change on coastal tourism infrastructure and in turn promote the future sustainability of coastal tourism destinations. This is a timely and informative text with appeal to researchers, undergraduate and post graduate students of tourism management, tourism planning, sustainable tourism development and leisure management, coastal tourism/management, environmental management/planning, geography, coastal zone management or climate change studies.

The novel brings together residents of a multi-story building. In a world besieged by COVID-19, Ezzat El-Kamhawi’s new novel places its main characters in a fictional world dominated by isolation and obsessions, where people are forced to surrender to a crushing flood of memories. FROM THE SCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE: “The novel explores the pandemic and its impacts on social life in Egypt, by presenting examples of the people who suffered from the disease. Structurally, it interacts with other literary genres and combines realism and fantasy.”
El ascensor de Einstein: científicos que cambiaron el mundo por Felix Dothan El autor escribe sobre la vida y trabajo de científicos prominentes que consiguieron descifrar los secretos de la naturaleza, e inventores que cambiaron el curso de la humanidad. Estos científicos eran personas reales, de carne y hueso, diferentes del uno al otro. Entre ellos se encontraban personajes próximos a la santidad, tales como Albert Einstein y Lise Meitner, junto a ellos personas casi de otro mundo, como Srinivasa Ramanujan. Hubo científicos eminentes que carecieron de integridad intelectual, tales como Leibniz, o aquellos que despertaron sentimientos tanto de admiración como revulsión, como por ejemplo, Fritz Haber. Y muchos más: Arquímedes, uno de los fundadores de las matemáticas y un inventor de armas avanzadas; Benjamin Franklin: empresario, pionero de la teoría de la electricidad, diplomático, autor, y estadista; Davy : un químico agudo y brillante; y así sigue la lista, hasta el astrofísico renombrado Chandrasekhar, uno de los científicos quien, en las últimas décadas, descubrió hechos sorprendentes sobre el universo. Junto a las biografías de los científicos, el libro contiene cuentos cortos sobre temas relacionados con la ciencia – cuentos interesantes y divertidos, pero instructivos a la vez. Felix Dothan es Profesor Emeritus de física de la universidad hebrea de Jerusalén. Fue un científico visitante del instituto europeo para investigación nuclear (CERN) en Ginebra, Y un profesor visitante de la Universidad de California y Yale.
