As Europe deals with a so-called 'refugee crisis', Australia's harsh border control policies have been suggested as a possible model for Europe to copy. Key measures of this system such as long-term mandatory detention, intercepting and turning boats around at sea, and the extraterritorial processing of asylum claims were actually used in the United States long before they were adopted in Australia. The book examines the process through which these policies spread between the United States and Australia and the way the courts in each jurisdiction have dealt with the measures. Daniel Ghezelbash's innovative interdisciplinary analysis shows how policies and practices that 'work' in one country might not work in another. This timely book is a must-read for those interested in preserving the institution of asylum in a volatile international and domestic political climate.

This title provides a comprehensive overview of European migration law. More than three dozen directives and regulations are discussed throughout this volume, together with numerous court judgments, international treaties, reform proposals, and factual developments. This careful inspection of EU legislation and cases is accompanied by analyses of domestic and international developments, as well as contextual factors influencing the real world of migratory movements. Across eighteen chapters, Daniel Thym discusses core features of visas and border controls, asylum and legal migration, integration and return, association agreements, and international cooperation. The work consists of two parts. In the first part, Thym provides an analysis of the general framework behind the EU rules on migration and the changing positions of the supranational institutions. Central to this part is a discussion on the significance of human rights and the case law of the Court of Justice. Several chapters identify general features guiding the interpretation and the administrative implementation of the common rulebook. In the second part of the book, Thym explores the policy design and the substance approached through a thematic, rather than a chronological, lens. These chapters provide a reliable inventory of the policy design, the legislation and judgments on all areas of European migration law.
Mediterranean in Dis/order reveals the connection between space and politics by examining the role that space has played in insurgencies, conflicts, uprisings, and mobilities in the Mediterranean region. With this approach, the authors are able to challenge well-established beliefs about the power structure of the state across different disciplines (including political science, history, sociology, geography, and anthropology), and its impact on the conception, production, and imagination of space in the broader Mediterranean. Further, they contribute to particular areas of studies, such as migration, political Islam, mobilization, and transition to democracy, among others. The book, infusing critical theory, unveils original and revelatory case studies in Tunisia, Libya, Lebanon, Turkey, Syria, Morocco, and the EU Mediterranean policy, through a various set of actors and practices—from refugees and migrations policies, to Islamist or students’ movements, architectural sites, or movies. This multidisciplinary perspective on space and power provides a valuable resource for practitioners interested in how space, context, and time interact to produce institutions, political subjectivities, and asymmetries of power, particularly since the turning point of the Arab uprisings. The book also helps readers understand the conditions under which the uprisings develop, giving a clearer picture about various national, regional, and international dynamics.
The portending process of climate change, induced by the anthropogenic accumulations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, is likely to generate effects that will cascade through the biosphere, impacting all life on earth and bearing upon human endeavors. Of special concern is the potential effect on agriculture and global food security. Anticipating these effects demands that scientists widen their field of vision and cooperate across disciplines to encompass increasingly complex interactions. Trans-disciplinary cooperation should aim to generate effective responses to the portending changes, including actions to mitigate the emissions of greenhouse gases and to adapt to those climate changes that cannot be avoided. This handbook presents an exposition of current research on the impacts, adaptation, and mitigation of climate change in relation to agroecosystems. It is offered as the first volume in what is intended to be an ongoing series dedicated to elucidating the interactions of climate change with a broad range of sectors and systems, and to developing and spurring effective responses to this global challenge. As the collective scientific and practical knowledge of the processes and responses involved continues to grow, future volumes in the series will address important aspects of the topic periodically over the coming years.
Daniel Kahneman adalah salah satu pemikir paling penting abad ini. Gagasannya berdampak mendalam dan luas di berbagai bidangÑtermasuk ekonomi, pengobatan, dan politik. Dalam buku yang sangat dinanti-nantikan ini, Kahneman menjelaskan dua sistem yang mendorong cara kita berpikir. Sistem 1 bersifat cepat, intuitif, dan emosional; Sistem 2 lebih pelan, lebih bertujuan, dan lebih logis. Kahneman menunjukkan kemampuan luar biasaÑjuga kekurangan dan bias yang dimiliki olehÑberpikir cepat, serta mengungkapkan dampak kesan intuitif pada pikiran dan perilaku kita. Dengan mengetahui cara kedua sistem itu membentuk penilaian dan keputusan kita, kita bisa memahami, antara lain: ¥ Dampak dari hilangnya antusiasme dan terlalu besarnya kepercayaan pada strategi korporat ¥ Sulitnya memprediksi apa yang membuat kita bahagia kelak ¥ Tantangan untuk membuat kerangka yang jelas tentang risiko di tempat kerja serta rumah ¥ Dampak mendalam dari bias kognitif pada segala sesuatu, mulai dari bertransaksi di pasar bursa sampai merencanakan liburan berikutnya Kahneman mengungkapkan ke mana kita bisa dan tidak bisa memercayakan intuisi kita serta bagaimana kita bisa menarik manfaat dari berpikir lambat. Dia menawarkan pemahaman praktis dan mencerahkan tentang cara menentukan pilihan dalam bisnis serta kehidupan pribadiÑserta bagaimana kita bisa menggunakan teknik berbeda untuk mengatasi kesalahan yang kerap mendatangkan masalah bagi kita.
