Free Download Eileen Pittaway, "Only Rape! Rights and Gender Equality for Refugee Women: From Refugee Camps to the United Nations "
English | ISBN: 9811909156 | | 350 pages | | 19 MB
This book charts the roller coaster ride taken by the authors over the past 33 years, in the ongoing fight to acknowledge, prevent, and respond to the rape and sexual abuse of women in conflict and displacement situations. They have worked with an international network of academics, refugee women, and human rights activists in 22 countries. The story moves between refugee camps and the United Nations, refugee settlements in and national governments. Theory and ethical research are an important part of the story. At times it is very confronting, sometimes amusing and often uplifting.

On Recursion and Its Varieties Formal, Cognitive and Use Aspects of Recursion in Language


Free Download On Recursion and Its Varieties: Formal, and Use of Recursion in Language
English | 2025 | ISBN: 3031874242 | 111 Pages | (True) | 20 MB
This book discusses linguistic recursion as a transversal property that runs through different fields, including language, science, , , music, and art. Linguistic recursion, considered since the seminal work of Hauser, Chomsky, and Fitch (2002) the defining characteristic of language, has no analogue or homologue in other animal communication systems. This book presents different aspects of recursion from a syntactic, semantic, and pragmatic framework. Syntax recursion is largely addressed through the different types of dependencies, most notably those hierarchically composed. The semantic and pragmatic topics are respectively discussed in relation to the theory of mind and a dialogical use of language.

His explosive insider memoir Power Trip was hailed as the must-read of , making The Thick of It look tame, and now Damian McBride is back with more razor-sharp observations taken from his widely acclaimed blog. The former spin-doctor, a pivotal but notorious figure in the New Labour government, has since become one of the most sought-after commentators on all things - and it's easy to see why. McBride's musings provide frank and fascinating accounts of the functions (or dysfunctions) of the political machine, and the peculiar machinations of its operators. Now, in Omnirambles, they are brought together for the first time in one collection. Delivered with the same no-holds-barred acuity and inimitable wit present in his debut bestseller, McBride once again proves himself to be one of today's most controversial and incisive political voices.

Being has been at the forefront of debate from its very beginnings, whereas non-being has been considered derivative of being and an obstacle for thought. Dmitri Nikulin argues that without non-being, being can neither be nor thought. Non-Being in Ancient Thought provides a , historical, and systematic reconstruction of the concept of non-being in ancient , from Pre-Socratic thought to Neoplatonism, in the works of Parmenides, Democritus, Plato, Diogenes, Aristotle, Descriptioninus, and Simplicius.
