Run Along Now
Suzanne, a young lady in her 20s, is a vicious serial killer out to doom and gloom any man who crosses her path. She justifies her actions by telling herself she will no longer tolerate the pain in which these men cause her. She buys them certificates that are stars named after them, then after she kills them, she keeps the certificates in her scrapbook as a trophy. She sees it as less bad men for good women to deal with. Malone and Clark are detectives who are partners assigned to the case. They’ve discovered she’s female, but they have no idea who she is. As they chase after her they get a little closer each day. Every time they start to lose hope in catching her a new lead comes in. Whom do the three of them meet along their journeys? Some leading to new places! Malone even dips his toes in the dating scene after he was cheated out of his first relationship twelve years before, he thought would be a forever one. As the story unfolds there’s an attachable reality to reading Suzanne and her story. It makes this tale of twists of a different type. Dare to journey your eyes across the pages to see if Malone and Clark catch Suzanne? Where they try? How they’ll do it?
The Practice of Independent Accountability Mechanisms (IAMs)
Multilateral development banks and other development agencies have adopted environmental and social safeguard policies setting due diligence standards for the provision of project finance. Such policies are evolving in terms of the activities covered and in their normative requirements. Recent iterations incorporate human rights requirements, recognising the imperative of adopting human rights-based approaches to development. Each institution has also established independent accountability mechanisms (IAM), variously functioning to ensure compliance with the applicable safeguards, to advise management regarding the application of the obligations involved, and to facilitate communication with...
Soul's Gate
“Every now and then we get a break from reality. A glimpse into the other world that is more real than the reality we live in 99 percent of our days. The Bible is about a world of demons and angels and great evil and even greater glory.” What if you could travel inside another person’s soul? To battle for them. To be part of Jesus healing their deepest wounds. To help set them free to step boldly into their divinely designed future. Thirty years ago that’s exactly what Reece Roth did. Until tragedy shattered his life and ripped away his future. Now God has drawn Reece out of the shadows to fulfill a prophecy spoken over him three decades ago. A prophecy about four warriors with the p...
Policing the Banks
From 1999 to 2004 Maartje van Putten served as a member of the World Bank's Inspection Panel. Using personal experience and extensive interviews with principal decision-makers and stakeholders in the Panel's work, she chronicles the history of accountability in the World Bank and other major financial entities. Describing how formerly secretive financial institutions have been slow to accept responsibility for the consequences of their investments - especially the problems that can result from projects in developing countries - she shows that financing institutions can cause significant social and environmental damage and argues that new accountability mechanisms are necessary to reduce or p...
Defying Displacement
The uprooting and displacement of people has long been among the hardships associated with development and modernity. Indeed, the circulation of commodities, currency, and labor in modern society necessitates both social and spatial mobility. However, the displacement and resettlement of millions of people each year by large-scale infrastructural projects raises serious questions about the democratic character of the development process. Although designed to spur economic growth, many of these projects leave local people struggling against serious impoverishment and gross violations of human rights. Working from a political-ecological perspective, Anthony Oliver-Smith offers the first book t...

Globalization and Human Rights
These essays include theoretical analyses by Richard Falk, Jack Donnelly and James Rosenau. Chapters on sex tourism, international markets and communications technology bring fresh perspectives to emerging issues. The authors investigate places such as the Dominican Republic, Nigeria and the Philippines.
The Good Hegemon
The Good Hegemon analyzes how and why the norm of "accountability justice"--the idea that when development IGOs were responsible for negative outcomes in developing countries, they owed restitution--for international organizations emerged and spread. Tracing its development after the introduction of the Work Bank Inspection Panel in 1993, Susan Park explains the norm's creation and how it functions and investigates whether it holds the Multilateral Development Banks to account.
