  • Glosario Terminos Migracion.Pdf
    2 >>> Words Do Matter Migration has moved high on the international agenda; it is now the focus of sensitive debates and growing media attention in a variety of contexts. Intense interest is shown in specific issues which have only emerged fully in recent years: the situation of internally displaced persons, the dynamics of a `migration-development nexus’, or the consequences of environmental change on human displacement. Meanwhile, the future of international refugee protection and standards of national asylum policies appears fragile and uncertain. An extensive terminology has evolved to cover standing and emerging issues as they also relate to the larger fields of human rights and development. This handbook takes stock of the present use of some selected terms and concepts. It is designed to be accessible to a general public which may not be familiar with the detailed discussions in the field of refugee and migration policy. Civil society and the business sector play an increasingly important role in migration, and we also hope this handbook may be of use to them. Another intended audience is the media, firstly because many of the current perceptions on migration and refugees are shaped there, and secondly because terms are often incorrectly interpreted in media coverage. Words matter, for labels impact people’s views and inform policy responses. Brief comments are provided to complement the definitions proposed, to cover related terms or to highlight some issues behind the words. For the purpose of clarity, the definitions are listed under the following sections: Persons & Statuses to identify the fundamental distinctions between the various persons concerned.

    HUMAN RIGHTS IN INDIA: A CASE STUDY OF THE ROLE OF POLICE IN GUJRAT COMMUNAL VIOLENCE-SINCE 1992 ABSTRACT THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE AWARD OF THE DEGREE OF Boctot of $t|tU)s(opI)p in political Science BY AMAN MOHD. KHAN Under the Supervision of Dr. IFTEKHAR AHEMMED DEPARTMENT OF POLITICAL SCIENCE ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY ALIGARH (INDIA) 2010 2 6 JL. 2014 HUMAN RIGHTS IN INDIA: A CASE STUDY OF THE ROLE OF POLICE IN GUJRAT COMMUNAL VIOLENCE -SINCE 1992 At the time of freedom struggle from the British rule, there was a mass ideological support with Mahatma Gandhi, which completely shared his vision of a strong secular India, with equal rights to all jg^ple irrespective of their religion, region, caste, colour and gender but atfiht.same time there were also some radical ideologies backed by religious fervor which are against the concept of egalitarian society. On the one hand Muslim extreiiiisf leaders demanded a separate nation based on their concept of two-nation theory and they secured it by carving out from the Muslim majorft^'^^eas of the then India. On the other hand extremist Hindu organizations, opposed to Gandhiji's humane and inclusive Hinduism and nationalism, assassinated him just months after India became free. The constitution of India, drafted by one of India's most revered leader Dr B. R Ambedkar, from a community which is traditionally subjected to the most savage caste discrimination, established the secular, socialist and democratic foundations of the new nation. Secular democracy is our constitutional ideal, but it is well known that 'ideal is not real and real is not ideal'.
