Book Description
"To Live Peaceably Together is a lively examination of the methods and accomplishments of the American Friends Service Committee (AFSC), a primarily Quaker group that took a unique and influential approach to cultivating cultural acceptance of residential integration in America after World War II. K'Meyer offers a close study of how a social movement develops and wields influence, and how social activists do their work and why. Driven by detailed stories of activists and the obstacles they encountered, the book studies how a mostly white faith-based activist group worked to ally itself to a cause that demanded constant learning and reassessment. K'Meyer details the AFSC members' spiritual and humanist motivations, their understandings of segregation, their visions of integrated neighborhoods, as well as how their strategies changed as they came to better understand structural inequality, and how they were eventually adopted by other groups"--

Activating Human Rights and Peace
Author: GOH Bee Chen
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317185684
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
Human rights and peace issues and concerns have come about at a critical time. The world has recently witnessed a plethora of turning points that speak of the hopes and vulnerabilities which are inherent in being human and demonstrate that change in the service of human rights and peace is possible. At the same time, however, other events indicate that wherever there is life, there is vulnerability in a world characterized by instability and endemic human suffering. On top of all this, the collapse of the global financial system and the serious, rapid destruction of the environment have brought the world to a precarious state of vulnerability. Activating human rights and peace is, therefore, a project that is always in progress, and is never finally achieved. This enlightening collection of well thought through cases is aimed at academics and students of human rights, political science, law and justice, peace and conflict studies and sociology.
