The Weight of a Mustard Seed: The Intimate Story of an Iraqi General and His Family During Thirty Years of Tyranny

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: General Kamel Sachet was a favorite of Saddam Hussein`s, a hero of the Iran-Iraq war, head of the army in Kuwait City during Desert Storm, governor of the province of Maysan, and father of nine children. When author Wendell Steavenson became intrigued by his story, she began with a few questions about Sachet and his fellow Baathist loyalists: `Why had they served such a regime? How had they accommodated their own morality? How had they lived? How had they lived with themselves?` Her journey to find these answers took five years, and an accumulation of facts, opinions, fears, confessions and suspicions from Sachet`s family, friends, and enemies. The result is not just a gripping account of one man`s rise and fall, but a vivid and compassionate portrayal of the Iraqi people. As Sachet rose from policeman to Special Forces officer and then General, he made more and more sacrifices to remain in Saddam`s good favor. Steadfast in his loyalty to God and his President, Sachet attended… [detailed...]

The Welfare Marketplace: Privatization and Welfare Reform

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThis provocative report examines the trend toward competitive contracting of government functions. By focusing on four jurisdictions that hired private firms to handle welfare-to-work services, The Welfare Marketplace reveals the ways in which increased contracting with the private and nonprofit sectors is changing the role and capacity of government, threatening accountability and responsiveness to groups with special needs. Encouraging improved performance through market mechanisms creates particular challenges for the nonprofits who must balance their missions with the bottom line. The organization of service delivery to welfare clients has undergone significant restructuring as a result of the 1996 Welfare Reform Act, which encouraged states to contract with outside companies and for the first time allowed them to determine eligibility for welfare benefits. Seeking to assess the impact of this development, M. Bryna Sanger studied the competitive contract… [detailed...]

The Welfare State in the European Union: Economic and Social Perspectives

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This book offers an account of the performance of the welfare state in the European Union, and explores its future prospects in an ever evolving setting. The objectives of the welfare state are twofold: to relieve poverty and to provide a sense of security for everyone. It can be shown that over the last four decades the welfare state has been quite successful in achieving these objectives, more visibly in the Nordic countries than in the Southern or the Anglo-Saxon ones. But today the welfare state is at a crossroad. It is facing a variety of challenges that include demographic aging, the changing role of families, increased opportunism, economic integration and declining job security. All these challenges call for a drastic reform of the welfare state, one that requires more control of abuses and more accountability. The authors that it is crucial that all the components of the welfare state be made as efficient as possible, and that if a choice has to be made between alleviating… [detailed...]

Publisher: —
Description: The welfare of the sheep has received less attention than the welfare of intensively husbanded animals. However, domestic sheep may be kept under conditions that are very different from the environment in which wild sheep live, with adverse effects on their behaviour and welfare. This book, written by leading researchers from Europe and Australia, takes a multidisciplinary approach to focus on the specific welfare challenges facing the sheep. The book begins with a discussion of current welfare thinking and how this might be relevant to sheep husbandry. The adaptations of wild sheep to diverse environments, and how their behaviour and physiology has developed to deal with these conditions is described and compared to conditions in modern sheep husbandry. The varied welfare demands of disease, nutrition and metabolism, farming systems and management practices are then discussed by specialists in those areas. The book concludes by considering the economics of improved welfare, and by… [detailed...]

But peace and quiet remain elusive for Thursday, who soon discovers that the Well itself is a veritable linguistic free-for-all, where grammasites run rampant, plot devices are hawked on the black market, and lousy books-like `Caversham Heights` - are scrapped for salvage. To top it off, a murderer is stalking Jurisfiction personnel and nobody is safe - least of all Thursday. Формат издания: 13 см х 19,5 см. [detailed...]
