Das Streben nach Freiheit für Palästina

The Law of Financial Crime

Following the events of 9\11 individual countries and the international community became increasingly concerned about how best to prevent the funding of terrorist groups. Alternative remittance systems such as Hawala, where money is moved informally between a network of brokers in the Middle East, north Africa and south Asia have been identified as a potential source of terrorist financing leading to calls for greater regulation of such alternative remittance systems.This book analyses the risk such alternative remittance systems pose in terms of terrorist financing, offering a detailed overview of the historical origins and methods of operation of alternative remittance systems or informal value transfer systems. The factors that have come to ensure that these systems have remained operationally viable in modern times are identified along with the risks they present balanced against an overview of their actual misuse for illicit purposes to date. The book presents a detailed critique of the UK framework for the regulation of these systems drawing where possible on existing data to assess the use and effectiveness of these measures in practice. A range of options for mitigating risks associated with specific remittance corridors is considered ranging from initiatives that promote remittances through the banking sector, to efforts to mitigate risk and the impact on the delivery of UK overseas development aid. The book concludes with key recommendations as to the effectiveness of the current regulatory framework within the UK viewed from the perspective of international efforts to secure the regulation of these systems, and in stemming terrorist finance as part of national and international counter-terrorism policy.

Outlines the urgent response needed to address privatization, which has led to dramatic but largely overlooked consequences for human rights.

Governments around the world are privatizing everything, with dramatic but largely ignored negative consequences for human rights. This open access book outlines the response that is urgently needed.

Destroying the Social Contract and Empowering Corporate Actors

Privatizing Human Rights

In the wake of World War I, the League of Nations and numerous investigative journalists went undercover to infiltrate sex-trafficking rings, conduct clandestine interviews with men and women participating in the vice trade, and identify the weak links in their operations in order to destroy this "global menace." These covert researchers discovered that the sex-trafficking industry was dominated not by vast underworld syndicates but by petty hustlers operating tiny fly-by-night operations. In Dealing in Human Flesh, Jeffrey S. Adler uses these unpublished field reports to map how small-time criminals conducted their sex-trafficking ventures. Adler shows that, despite policymakers' (and filmmakers') obsessions with the cartels and international crime rings of myth, it was in fact the business model of sex traffickers that narcotics and arms smugglers borrowed from to forge the surprisingly un-organized structure of early twenty-first-century human, cocaine, and weapons trafficking.

Jurisdiction, Immunity and Transnational Human Rights Litigation

Across the Aisle

This balanced book illuminates Republican and Democratic responses and attitudes toward crime, police work, sentencing, incarceration, and rehabilitation in the USA. A broad array of law enforcement and criminal justice issues are examined, including mass incarceration, sentencing disparities, anti-drug efforts, marijuana legalization, death penalty, mandatory minimums, civil asset forfeiture, prison privatization, rape and other crimes in prison settings, women in prison, support for therapeutic/educational programs, sentencing for juvenile offenders, harsher penalties for hate crimes, and voting rights for ex-felons. The focus is on specific and timely topics in criminal justice that are most susceptible to legislative policies. Readers will benefit by developing an appreciation for how politics impacts the criminal justice system, and how the parties have developed laws that impact their lives, dictate acceptable behavior, and legislate appropriate responses for violators. The emphasis of the series is contemporary, but it includes historical perspective to provide a sense of how each party's positions and actions have evolved over time.

Contemporary Chinese Law and Legal System

This book explores the intricate terrain of international religious freedom discourse. It examines the evolution and controversies surrounding the formulation and interpretation of the freedom of religion or belief as a universal right within the United Nations. From legal and philosophical standpoints to the political dimensions of the subject, the book navigates through the complex terrain, shedding light on challenges to the universality and non-discriminatory implementation of this fundamental freedom. Beyond theoretical and legal debates, the study reveals how actors within the United Nations have 'defamed ' the freedom of religion or belief, reshaping its interpretation away from its original 1948 objectives. The book explores the dynamic interplay of postmodern views, legal intricacies, and political perspectives, contributing to a potential diminishment of the normative force of related legal provisions. It addresses critical topics including religious tolerance, blasphemy, defamation of religion, and apostasy, offering a comprehensive understanding of the evolving landscape of international human rights discourse. This is an indispensable resource for scholars, policymakers, and anyone seeking a profound insight into the challenges and transformations shaping the global pursuit of religious freedom.

Defaming the Freedom of Religion or Belief

Schluss mit der Empörungslogik - wie wir unsere Demokratie verteidigen und Frustration in mutige Politik verwandelnDie Demokratie steht unter Druck - doch Rückzug ist für Rasha Nasr, die junge&nbsp;SPD-Bundestagsabgeordnete&nbsp;aus Dresden, keine Option. In ihrem Bericht aus dem Maschinenraum des parlamentarischen Alltags rechnet sie mit der Berliner&nbsp;Talkshow-Logik&nbsp;ab und fordert eine Rückkehr zur Substanz.Nasr macht deutlich, dass in der heutigen Politik zu oft darüber geredet wird, was brennt, während niemand darüber spricht, was trägt. Rechte Erzählungen gewinnen nicht, weil sie wahr sind, sondern weil sie so einfach sind. Statt sich hinter Sachzwängen zu verstecken, tritt die Autorin in ihrer leidenschaftlichen&nbsp;Streitschrift&nbsp;für klare Prioritäten und echte&nbsp;Verantwortung&nbsp;ein - fernab von Identitätsdebatten. Sie beweist, dass Demokratie keine Komfortzone ist, sondern den&nbsp;Mut&nbsp;erfordert, unperfekte Kompromisse mit&nbsp;Haltung&nbsp;zu vertreten und Konflikte ohne Feindschaft auszuhalten.'Verantwortung heißt bleiben' ist ein persönliches und kämpferisches Buch, das Wut konstruktiv in politischen Mut übersetzt. Ein starkes Plädoyer für Menschen, die Haltung zeigen wollen und sich für gesellschaftlichen Zusammenhalt, soziale Sicherheit und Freiheit einsetzen - und ein authentisches Vorbild dafür, unsere Demokratie aktiv zu verteidigen.
