Article 20

Children Deprived of Their Family Environment

By: Nigel Cantwell,Anna Holzscheiter

This volume constitutes a commentary on Article 20 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, dealing with children deprived of their family environment. It is part of the series, A Commentary on the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, which provides an article by article analysis of all substantive, organizational and procedural provisions of the CRC and its two Optional Protocols. For every article, a comparison with related human rights provisions is made, followed by an in-depth exploration of the nature and scope of State obligations deriving from that article. The series constitutes an essential tool for actors in the field of children's rights, including academics, students, judges, grassroots workers, governmental, non- governmental and international officers. The series is sponsored by the Belgian Federal Science Policy Office.

Ephemeral Lisle

The Town That Disappeared

By: Nigel Burch

The Lisle gold rush of 1879 was the biggest seen in Tasmania, and at the height of the boom Lisle was easily our third largest town. The alluvial gold was soon exhausted, however, and no reef was ever found. When small miners blocked the release of land to farmers, the town was doomed.This is the history of Lisle, from the first prospector’s arrival in 1878, to when the last resident left in 1963.

Crossing Thresholds

A Practical Theology of Liminality

By: Timothy L. Carson,Rosy Fairhurst,Nigel Rooms,Lisa R. Withrow

We live in an age of enormous and rapid change, but how do people, organisations, even whole cultures and societies change? And where is God in such transformations? For more than a hundred years, anthropology has taught us that entering a chaotic, awesome and fraught 'threshold' - or liminal space - is fundamental to our renewal as human beings. Yet none of us goes willingly into such places. We need to be 'held' in liminal movement so that it is safe enough to change. Crossing Thresholds is the first inter-disciplinary theological treatment of the universal phenomenon of liminality. Developing practical wisdom from foundations in the work of Victor Turner, Donald Winnicott and Bruce Reed, the authors explore the place of liminality in the worship, mission and hermeneutics of the Church and reflect on its usefulness to a wide range of Christian practice. For all those who strive to think theologically about the great transitions of life, this comprehensive work offers unique insight into what it is to safely cross the threshold of chaos and embrace the future with courage.

The Religious Condition of Ireland 1770-1850

The Religious Condition of Ireland 1770-1850

By: Nigel Yates

Nigel Yates provides a major reassessment of the religious state of Ireland between 1770 and 1850. He argues that this was both a period of intense reform across all the major religious groups in Ireland and also one in which the seeds of religious tension, which were to dominate Irish politics and society for most of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, were sown. He examines in detail, from a wide range of primary sources, the mechanics of this reform programme and the growing tensions between religious groups in this period, showing how political and religious issues became inextricably mixed and how various measures that might have been taken to improve the situation were not politically or religiously possible.

What is Religion?

A Theological Answer

By: Nigel Ajay Kumar

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

What is Religion?

A Theological Answer

By: Nigel Ajay Kumar

“What Is Religion?” is one of those questions rarely asked by Christian theologians who engage in interreligious discourse. Nigel Ajay Kumar makes the case, however, that to answer this question is critical for Christian scholars who want to negotiate multiple religious identities, as well as for those who want a clearer understanding of their own faith as religion. Kumar takes a historical and theological approach to answering this question. The history of the concept of religion is traced from biblical times to the Indian independence era. Then, a theological answer is offered not only by looking at the classical Indian theologian, Pandipeddi Chenchiah, but also by listening to other contemporary secular and theological voices. (This is the South Asian Edition of the original Wipf & Stock edition (2013) with the same name).
