Freedom Rights : New Perspectives on the Civil Rights Movement
In his seminal article "Freedom Then, Freedom Now," renowned civil rights historian Steven F.Lawson described his vision for the future study of the civil rights movement.Lawson called for a deeper examination of the social, economic, and political factors that influenced the movement's development and growth.He urged his fellow scholars to connect the "local with the national, the political with the social," and to investigate the ideological origins of the civil rights movement, its internal dynamics, the role of women, and the significance of gender and sexuality. In Freedom Rights: New Perspectives on the Civil Rights Movement, editors Danielle L.McGuire and John Dittmer follow Lawson's example, bringing together the best new scholarship on the modern civil rights movement.The work expands our understanding of the movement by engaging issues of local and national politics, gender and race relations, family, community, and sexuality.The volume addresses cultural, legal, and social developments and also investigates the roots of the movement.Each essay highlights important moments in the history of the struggle, from the impact of the Young Women's Christian Association on integration to the use of the arts as a form of activism. Freedom Rights not only answers Lawson's call for a more dynamic, interactive history of the civil rights movement, but it also helps redefine the field.

Freedom of Religion Under Bills of Rights
'The Australian Constitution contains no guarantee of freedom of religion or freedom of conscience. Indeed, it contains very few provisions dealing with rights — in essence, it is a Constitution that confines itself mainly to prescribing a framework for federal government, setting out the various powers of government and limiting them as between federal and state governments and the three branches of government without attempting to define the rights of citizens except in minor respects. […]Whether Australia should have a national bill of rights has been a controversial issue for quite some time. This is despite the fact that Australia has acceded to the ICCPR, as well as the First Optional Protocol to the ICCPR, thereby accepting an international obligation to bring Australian law into line with the ICCPR, an obligation that Australia has not discharged. Australia is the only country in the Western world without a national bill of rights. The chapters that follow in this book debate the situation in Australia and in various other Western jurisdictions.'

Do political rights want security and political left want freedom?
It is not accurate to say that political rights want security and political left want freedom as a general rule. Both political ideologies value both security and freedom, but may prioritize them differently. Political rights often emphasize the importance of security and stability in society, while the political left may prioritize individual freedoms and social justice. Ultimately, both sides seek a balance between security and freedom in order to create a just and prosperous society.

Protest Policing and Human Rights : A Dialogical Approach
This book examines protest policing and the toolbox of options available to police commanders in response.The right to peacefully protest is intrinsic to democracy and embedded in British history and tradition.The police are responsible for managing public order and facilitating peaceful protest and this has not been without criticism.On occasions, the police have found themselves in opposition to protest groups and there have been incidents of disorder as a result.In response, the development of Police Liaison Teams in the UK has presented the police with a gateway for dialogue between themselves and those involved in protest.Drawing on two contrasting case studies, the policing of the badger cull in South West England and an English Defence League (EDL) march in Liverpool, this book explores the experiences of police commanders, police liaison officers, protesters, counterdemonstrators, members of local businesses and other interested parties.It explores how a dialogical approach with all those engaged in or affected by a protest has assisted the police in balancing human rights and reducing conflict for all. An accessible and compelling read, this book will appeal to students, scholars and practitioners of policing, politics, criminology, sociology, human rights and all those interested in how protests are policed.

Rights Refused : Grassroots Activism and State Violence in Myanmar
For decades, the outside world mostly knew Myanmar as the site of a valiant human rights struggle against an oppressive military regime, predominantly through the figure of Nobel Peace Prize winner Aung San Suu Kyi. And yet, a closer look at Burmese grassroots sentiments reveals a significant schism between elite human rights cosmopolitans and subaltern Burmese subjects maneuvering under brutal and negligent governance.While elites have endorsed human rights logics, subalterns are ambivalent, often going so far as to refuse rights themselves, seeing in them no more than empty promises.Such alternative perspectives became apparent during Burma's much-lauded decade-long "transition" from military rule that began in 2011, a period of massive change that saw an explosion of political and social activism. How then do people conduct politics when they lack the legally and symbolically stabilizing force of "rights" to guarantee their incursions against injustice?In this book, Elliott Prasse-Freeman documents grassroots political activists who advocate for workers and peasants across Burma, covering not only the so-called "democratic transition" from 2011-2021, but also the February 2021 military coup that ended that experiment and the ongoing mass uprising against it.Taking the reader from protest camps, to flop houses, to prisons, and presenting practices as varied as courtroom immolation, occult cursing ceremonies, and land reoccupations, Rights Refused shows how Burmese subaltern politics compel us to reconsider how rights frameworks operate everywhere.

Apocalyptic Rhetoric and the Black Protest Movement : William Monroe Trotter’s Civil Rights Activism in Early Twentieth-Century Boston
Apocalyptic Rhetoric and the Black Protest Movement offers a challenging new formulation of African American religious culture by asserting that African American Christianity produced a militant millennialist movement that invoked the apocalypse, the kingdom of God, and the end of the world to compel Black people to oppose racial injustice in the early twentieth century.In this account of the Black civil rights movement in Boston in the early twentieth century, Aaron Pride argues that the apocalyptic rhetoric and millennial imagery disseminated from the Boston Guardian by William Monroe Trotter cast Booker T.Washington and other opponents of Black protest as false prophets, biblical villains, and harbingers of the end times.By placing Black Christianity at the center of Black civil rights activism in the early twentieth century, this book provides a seminal interpretation of the emancipatory capacity of religion as cultural and intellectual force in social and political movements.This book will be of interest to scholars of cultural history, Black studies, and the history of religion.

Should women have had political rights earlier in the French Revolution?
Yes, women should have had political rights earlier in the French Revolution. The principles of liberty, equality, and fraternity that were central to the revolution should have applied to women as well. Women played a significant role in the revolution and were active participants in the events leading up to it. Granting them political rights earlier would have been a step towards true equality and inclusivity in the revolutionary process.

What were the human and civil rights during the French Revolution?
During the French Revolution, there were significant advancements in human and civil rights. The Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen, adopted in 1789, laid the foundation for these rights by asserting the principles of liberty, equality, and fraternity. This document proclaimed that all men are born and remain free and equal in rights, and it also guaranteed freedom of speech, press, and religion. Additionally, the revolution led to the abolition of feudal privileges and the establishment of a more egalitarian legal system. However, it is important to note that these rights were not extended to women and slaves, and the revolution did not fully address the issue of racial equality.

How do fundamental rights differ from human rights?
Fundamental rights are specific rights that are recognized and protected by a country's constitution or laws, and they are typically enforceable through legal means within that country. On the other hand, human rights are universal rights that are inherent to all human beings, regardless of their nationality or citizenship, and they are often recognized and protected by international agreements and treaties. While fundamental rights are specific to the legal framework of a particular country, human rights are considered to be universal and apply to all individuals worldwide. Additionally, fundamental rights may vary from country to country, while human rights are meant to be consistent and applicable to everyone.

Are rights cruel?
Rights themselves are not inherently cruel. In fact, they are designed to protect individuals from cruelty and ensure their well-being. However, the way in which rights are upheld or violated by individuals or institutions can certainly be cruel. When rights are denied or abused, it can lead to suffering and injustice. Therefore, the concept of rights is not cruel, but the actions of those who violate or ignore them can be.
