    The traditionally top-down focus in human rights scholarship on laws, institutions, and courts has begun to turn towards a bottom-up focus on activists, advocacy groups, affected communities, and social movements. The essays collected in Legal Mobilization for Human Rights examine a range of issues including which groups claim rights, what they are mobilizing to protect, the goals they pursue, the forums they use, the obstacles they encounter, and the extent of their success or failure. Case studies reveal key themes such as: the importance of human rights to marginalized communities; how political and societal authoritarianism shapes opportunities for effective mobilization; the importance of the choice of forum for instigating change; the role intermediary actors such as NGOs play in innovating strategies to address challenges; the possibilities for subaltern mobilization to reshape human rights law; and the importance of supporting genuinely community-led legal mobilization.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson helped to spearhead the American transcendentalist movement. He championed individualism and free thought, often pushing others toward self-reliance in many different ways. Emerson urged his listener to pursue their individual will rather than conform to the expectations of society. Emerson’s attention to the individual’s will wasn’t simply a comment on a person’s place in society, but also their decisions regarding communication with God and their relationship with the Church. Emerson believed we could have a richer experience without the interference of priests and organized religion. In his essay The Over-Soul, he outlines his belief in a God that resides in each of us and whom we can communicate with, without membership in a church or the assistance of an intermediary church official. ungekürzt.

    Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency and digital payment system invented by an unknown programmer, or a group of programmers, under the name Satoshi Nakamoto. It was released as open-source software in 2009. The system is peer-to-peer, and transactions take place between users directly, without an intermediary. These transactions are verified by network nodes and recorded in a public distributed ledger called a blockchain. Since the system works without a central repository or single administrator, bitcoin is called the first decentralized digital currency. Besides being created as a reward for mining, bitcoin can be exchanged for other currencies, products, and services in legal or black markets. As of February 2015, over 100,000 merchants and vendors accepted bitcoin as payment. According to research produced by Cambridge University in 2017, there are 2.9 to 5.8 million unique users using a cryptocurrency wallet, most of them using bitcoin. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    From the desks of Nigeria's newsrooms, two journalists are recruited to find the kidnapped wife of a British oil engineer. Zaq, an infamous media hack, knows what's in store, but Rufus, a keen young journalist eager to get himself noticed, has no idea what he's let himself in for. Journeying into the oil-rich regions of the Niger Delta, where militants rule and the currency dealt in is the lives of hostages, Rufus soon finds himself acting as intermediary between editor, husband, captive and soldier. As they follow the trail of the missing woman, love for the 'story' becomes about much more than just uncovering her whereabouts, and instead becomes a mission to make sense of their own muddled lives. In a cruel twist of fate, Rufus finds himself taking on Zaq's role much more literally than he ever anticipated, and as the body count rises, and the environment burns, he learns that truth can often be a bitter pill to swallow.

    Tom Baker stars in this BBC Radio 4 full-cast dramatisation of John le Carré’s powerful thriller. In the third year of perestroika, London publisher Barley Blair is sent a manuscript from Moscow. Exposing Russian nuclear threats as a sham, the information - if it’s genuine - could shatter East-West relations. Jazz-loving, hard-drinking Blair is hardly the spymasters’ idea of the perfect agent, yet they are forced to send him to Moscow to make contact. But the Cold War thaws when Barley meets Katya, the beautiful Russian intermediary who is equally sceptical of state ideology. Mere pawns in a deadly game of international espionage, they nevertheless represent the breakdown of hostilities and a future which poses a huge threat to the entrenched professionals on both sides... Both a gripping spy saga and a poignant love story, The Russia House delivers all the excitement and tension expected from the master of espionage fiction. This BBC Radio 4 adaptation was dramatised by René Basilico. Language: English. Narrator: Tom Baker. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/bbcw/004854/bk_bbcw_004854_sample.mp3.

Python is on the rise in the world of coding and many popular technological devices from the Raspberry Pi to the Linux operating system use Python as a crux for not just education, but implementation. Python can help you code your own software, develop your own games, and even format your own home surveillance system! It is, hands down, one of the most useful coding languages around, and the way it is formatted cuts out a great deal of the fluff that other coding languages have a tendency to be bogged down with. Whether your interest in Python is educational, career-based, or born out of a simple curiosity, it is a programming language you should know, be fluent in, and put on your resume.  This world is quickly evolving into a technology-based society, and knowing a coding language as prominent as Python will not only ensure you a job in the future, but it will provide you with a thick foundation to then build your coding language on, should that be something you are chasing. However, no matter the purpose you have chosen for learning this language, there is no beginner’s audiobook that breaks down the language into its original components and strings them together cohesively better than this one. If you are looking for an audiobook that is easy to understand and still provides the easy-to-digest guidance you want, then look no further. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Trevor Clinger.
