Описание: Martin Tunnicliffe retired from active ordained ministry in the Church of England in 1998. In this collection of articles he discusses a range of fascinating ideas including what does `Sin` have to do with `Archery` and whether sermons and Christians should not just `comfort the afflicted` but also `afflict the comfortable`?

Описание: From 1948 to 1966, the United Nations worked to create a common legal standard for human rights protection around the globe. Resisting Rights analyzes the Canadian government’s changing policy toward this endeavour from the 1940s to the 1970s, exploring how developments in international relations and evolving cultural attitudes within Canadian society created pressure on the federal government to overcome its initial reluctance to be bound by international human rights law. This timely study situates current policies within their historical context and debunks the myth that Canada has been at the forefront of international human rights policy since its inception.
