Book Description
Depuis la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, la communauté internationale a déployé de sérieux efforts pour faire la guerre à la guerre et empêcher à jamais d'indicibles tragédies telles que celle d'Oradour-sur-Glane. Ces efforts, souvent conduits au nom des droits de l'Homme, sont loin d'avoir été vains mais ils n'ont pas empêché la prolifération de conflits armés sur tous les continents : ils n'ont pas empêché Srebrenitsa. A l'occasion du 60e anniversaire de la Déclaration universelle 'des droits de l'Homme (DUDH), il était important de vérifier la pertinence et la portée des droits de l'Homme face à la guerre. Les systèmes onusiens, internationaux et régionaux qui organisent leur protection peuvent-ils prévenir ou sanctionner les atteintes les plus graves qui leur sont ou qui leur ont été portées pendant la guerre ? Les droits de l'Homme peuvent-ils promouvoir le droit à la paix ou, plus modestement, relever les défis que la guerre lance aux droits de l'enfant, mais aussi au droit de l'environnement, du patrimoine ? Telles sont quelques-unes des questions fondamentales auxquelles les contributeurs de cet ouvrage se sont efforcés de répondre.
The War Guilt Problem and the Ligue des droits de l'homme, 1914-1944
Author: Norman IngramPublisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0192563068
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 307
Book Description
The War Guilt Problem and the Ligue des droits de l'homme is a significant new volume from Norman Ingram, addressing the history of the Ligue des droits de l'homme (LDH), an organisation founded in 1898 at the height of the Dreyfus Affair and which lay at the very centre of French Republican politics in the era of the two world wars. Ingram posits that the Ligue's inability to resolve the question of war guilt from the Great War was what led to its decline by 1937, well before the Nazi invasion of May 1940. As well as developing our understanding of how the issue of war origins and war guilt transfixed the LDH from 1914 down to the Second World War, this volume also explores the aetiology of French pacifism, expanding on the differences between French and Anglo-American pacifism. It argues that from 1916 onwards, one can see a principled dissent from the Union sacrée war effort that occurred within mainstream French Republicanism and not on the syndicalist or anarchist fringes. Based on substantial research in a large number of French archives, primarily in the papers of the LDH which were repatriated to France from the former Soviet Union in late 2001, but also on considerable new research in the German archives, the book proposes a new explanatory model to help us understand some of the choices made in Vichy France, moving beyond the usual triptych of collaboration, resistance or accommodation.

Author: Anja MihrPublisher: SAGE
ISBN: 1473907195
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 1127
Book Description
The SAGE Handbook of Human Rights will comprise a two volume set consisting of more than 50 original chapters that clarify and analyze human rights issues of both contemporary and future importance. The Handbook will take an inter-disciplinary approach, combining work in such traditional fields as law, political science and philosophy with such non-traditional subjects as climate change, demography, economics, geography, urban studies, mass communication, and business and marketing. In addition, one of the aspects of mainstreaming is the manner in which human rights has come to play a prominent role in popular culture, and there will be a section on human rights in art, film, music and literature. Not only will the Handbook provide a state of the art analysis of the discipline that addresses the history and development of human rights standards and its movements, mechanisms and institutions, but it will seek to go beyond this and produce a book that will help lead to prospective thinking.

Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
Place and Locality in Modern France analyses the significance and changing constructions of local place in modern France. Drawing on the expertise of a range of scholars from around the world, this book provides a timely overview of the cross-disciplinary thinking that is currently taking place over a central issue in French history. The contributed chapters address a range of subjects that include: the politics of administrative reform, decentralization, regionalism and local advocacy; the role of commerce in engendering narratives and experience of local place; the importance of ethnic, class, gender and race distinctions in shaping local connection and identity; the generation and transmission of knowledge about local place and culture through academia, civic heritage and popular memory. As a reconsideration of the 'local' in French history, Place and Locality in Modern France bridges the divide between micro- and macro-history for all those interested in ideas of locality and culture in modern French and European history.
