Freedom Human

The world is not as God intends it to be. God's heart is to make things right, and for the world to be just. But complex problems warrant more sustained attention than quick posts on social media. How can we actually make a difference? Activist Mae Elise Cannon takes us beyond the hashtags to serious engagement with real issues. God calls the church to respond substantively to the needs of the poor, the realities of racial inequity, and the mistreatment of women and the marginalized.

In this ground-breaking book, Ben Ramalingam shows that the linear, mechanistic models and assumptions on which foreign aid is built would be more at home in early-20th-century factory floors than in the dynamic, complex world we face today. All around us, we can see the costs and limitations of dealing economies and societies as if they are analogous to machines. The reality is that such social systems have far more in common with ecosystems: They are complex, dynamic, diverse, and unpredictable.

In April 2014, the world awoke to the shocking news that the terrorist group Boko Haram had kidnapped nearly 300 school-aged girls and taken them deep into the forests of Nigeria.

Hundreds—possibly thousands—more girls had been taken against their will and forced to become child brides to soldiers and leaders of Boko Haram. Some of the captives escaped and returned to their villages, many with children in tow.

In 2013, Kurdish journalist Behrouz Boochani was illegally detained on Manus Island. He has been there ever since. This book is the result. Laboriously tapped out on a mobile phone and translated from the Farsi. It is a voice of witness, an act of survival. A lyric firsthand account. A cry of resistance. A vivid portrait through five years of incarceration and exile.

Ferdinand von Schirach über neue, notwendige Menschenrechte. Mit der amerikanischen Unabhängigkeitserklärung 1776 und der Erklärung der Menschen- und Bürgerrechte 1779 in Frankreich wurden die Grundsteine für unsere moderne Gesellschaft gelegt, für unsere Freiheit und unsere unveräußerlichen Rechte. Das Erstaunliche an diesen Deklarationen ist, dass sie nicht die Wirklichkeit widerspiegelten. Die großen Manifeste der Menschheit verlangten eine Ordnung der Gesellschaft, die es noch nicht gab. Es waren Utopien.
