Book excerpt: El segundo Informe del estado del voluntariado en el mundo, dedicado a la relación entre el voluntariado y la gobernanza, defiende que el voluntariado y las políticas e inversiones de desarrollo que se centran en las personas ofrecen un potencial sin explotar para el desarrollo sostenible. El informe postula el voluntariado como recurso y vehículo adicionales para que las destrezas, los conocimientos y la competencia técnica impulsen la voz y la participación, la responsabilidad y rendición de cuentas y la receptividad como pilares principales de la buena gobernanza, complementando así otras soluciones y recursos en aras del desarrollo. A partir de un amplio conjunto de pruebas, el informe destaca la capacidad del voluntariado para promover la paz y el desarrollo. Muestra los logros alcanzados en determinados contextos y, a partir de ellos, deduce la posible contribución de los voluntarios y el voluntariado. Este «arte de lo posible» se pone de manifiesto en una serie de estudios de casos que facilitan un sorprendente abanico de ejemplos de cómo las personas, a título individual o colectivo, están aunando fuerzas para actuar en distintos espacios de gobernanza. El presente informe también demuestra que, cuando los gobiernos y otros agentes de gobernanza crean un entorno propicio y animan a las personas a acceder a espacios restringidos, se puede lograr un cambio con una base más amplia de apropiación y apoyo.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Film festivals during the Cold War were fraught with the political and social tensions that dominated the world at the time. While film was becoming an increasingly powerful medium, the European festivals in particular established themselves as showcases for filmmakers and their perceptions of reality. At the same time, their prestigious, international character attracted the interest of states and private players. The history of these festivals thus sheds light not only on the films they made available to various publics, but on the cultural policies and political processes that informed their operations. Presenting new research by an international group of younger scholars, Cultural Transfer and Political Conflicts critically investigates postwar history in the context of film festivals reconstructing not only their social background and international dispensation, but also their centrality for cultural transfers between the East, the West and the South during the Cold War.

This book was released on 2020-06-22 with total page 678 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book, Economic Empowerment of Women in the Islamic World, discusses the economic, social, and political rights and status of women in Islam, which is theoretically given by the Islamic Jurisprudence (Shariah law). The chapters in this volume will address historical practices in comparison to the status of women in the contemporary Muslim world. Men and women in Islam, regardless of their age, social class, and education, are equal as citizens and individuals, but not identical in their rights and responsibilities. It can be observed from Islamic history that in the early age of Islam, women were given full confidence, trust, and high responsibilities in leadership, educational guidance, and decision-making.This volume will try to clarify the confusion in the status of the women in Islam that is presented by the media, as it is assumed that theoretical Islamic empowerment of women bears little relation to the real conditions of women in modern Muslim societies. It has been widely claimed in the media that Muslim women suffer more than men in Muslim societies and communities in terms of insecurity, domestic abuse, and low access to education and medical care. It is also stated in the press and media that absence of good governance also results in gender inequality and violation of the rights of Muslim women.This volume also aims to provide the solutions for the empowerment of women in the Islamic world. We assumed that without good governance, the status of women is not likely to improve. Muslim women have the potential to play a fundamental role in curbing corruption, social ills, violence, and crime in the Muslim world. This volume will make the case that in order to achieve stability and prosperity, the government must ensure a platform for women to participate in decision-making and hence benefit from the rights they are accorded in Islam.By covering a range of perspectives on the economic lives of Muslim women around the world, it hopes to shed light on the problems faced and to offer possible solutions to the empowerment of women in the Islamic world.
