Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book, an 1873 collection of poetry by Scottish artisan Alexander Murdoch, is an important poetic contribution to the Glasgow literary scene of the time and a fascinating insight into the daily life of the working class in an industrial 19th-century society. Tackling issues of social injustice with wit and energy, this book presents themes of labor, hardship, poverty, resilience, and pride. Murdoch's verse captures the very soul of the common man's experience within the broader canvas of the booming industrial revolution. His ability to craft rich imagery out of the ordinary, out of the overlooked corners of society, gives his work a timeless appeal. A highly valuable historical document as well as a compelling read, this collection of verse offers a vivid insight into working-class life in 19th-century Glasgow, and is a compelling read for those interested in the everyday lives of the era. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Famine is an age-old scourge that almost disappeared in our lifetime. Between 2000 and 2011 there were no famines and deaths in humanitarian emergencies were much reduced. The humanitarian agenda was ascendant. Then, in 2017, the United Nations identified four situations that threatened famine or breached that threshold in north-eastern Nigeria, Somalia, South Sudan, and Yemen. Today, this list is longer. Each of these famines is the result of military actions and exclusionary, authoritarian politics conducted without regard to the wellbeing or even the survival of people.Violations of international law including blockading ports, attacks on health facilities, violence against humanitarian workers, and obstruction of relief aid are carried out with renewed impunity. Yet there is an array of legal offenses, ranging from war crimes and crimes against humanity to genocide, available to a prosecutor to hold individuals to account for the deliberate starvation of civilians. However, there has been a dearth of investigations and accountability for those violating international law.The reasons for this neglect and the gaps between the black-letter law and practice are explored in this timely volume. It provides a comprehensive overview of the key themes and cases required to catalyze a new approach to understanding the law as it relates to starvation. It also illustrates the complications of historical and ongoing situations where starvation is used as a weapon of war, and provides expert analysis on defining starvation, early warning systems, gender and mass starvation, the use of sanctions, journalistic reporting, and memorialization of famine. This volume explores how famine and mass starvation in our lifetime are the result of man-made policies, and invariably occur during times of armed conflict. It provides expert analysis on defining starvation, early warning systems, gender and mass starvation, the use of sanctions, reporting on, and memory of famine.
