  • Blood Money in Sudan and Beyond: Restorative Justice Or Face-Saving Measure?
    BLOOD MONEY IN SUDAN AND BEYOND: RESTORATIVE JUSTICE OR FACE-SAVING MEASURE? A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of The School of Continuing Studies and of The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Liberal Studies By Jacqueline H. Wilson, M.S. Georgetown University Washington, D. C. March 25, 2014 Copyright © 2014 by Jacqueline H. Wilson All Rights Reserved ii BLOOD MONEY IN SUDAN AND BEYOND: RESTORATIVE JUSTICE OR FACE-SAVING MEASURE? Jacqueline H. Wilson, M.S. Mentor/Chair John O. Voll, Ph.D. ABSTRACT This thesis assesses the restorative justice aspects of blood money processes used around the world but focuses primarily on Sudan and South Sudan. It examines sulha, judiya (Darfur), galad (eastern Sudan) and other processes using a mixed methods approach and a multi-site ethnography methodology. The paper scrutinizes these processes from foundational agreements, information gathering and truth-telling, through selecting a third party, and examines truces, exile, women’s roles, compensation agreements, closing rituals, and implementation measures. The paper documents contemporary challenges facing these blood money processes such as collective responsibility, global trends like urbanization, widespread killing and retaliation that rises to a feud, situations where killer and killed are unknown to each other, and situations where blood money is paid by outsiders. I identify shortcomings within these processes relative to international legal norms and human values, as well as areas where they are consistent. Using a restorative justice analytical framework, I determine whether blood money processes are restorative and constitute justice, and ask whether these iii traditional mechanisms are sufficiently robust to stop the cycle of violence.

  • Articles from 2016
    Preview Shelf Articles for 2016 December 1, 2016 Discovering the Wild Heritage of the Nineteenth State By Dianne Combs It has been a wonderful year of celebration for the state of Indiana. Two hundred years of statehood! We have learned many things about our political and historical heritage, but I believe that Indiana still has many secrets that need to be learned. Here at the library we have some beautiful books that will help you explore the natural history of our great state. “The Natural Heritage of Indiana,” edited by Marion T. Jackson, takes us on a lively jaunt through the terrain of our great state. To my delight, the very first picture in Part One is of the “Honeycomb Rock” at Pine Hills Nature Preserve in the southwestern part of Montgomery County. Glaciation and its effects on our landscape are explained in detail, which helps me to understand all the rock formations I come across while exploring some of our nationally renowned state parks. Throughout this section, written by Henry Gray, we are taken on several tours of Indiana. He describes the terrain as if he were driving along highways and illustrates his discussion with appropriate topographical maps. Our soil and water, wetlands and caves — all these give our state its unique stamp on the map of our nation. Beautiful photographs of the flora and fauna of Indiana fill the pages of this coffee table book. I could spend hours just turning its pages, learning about the native plants and animals with which we share our land. We have recently acquired two copies of “A Place Called Turkey Run — A Celebration of Indiana’s Second State Park in Photographs and Words,” by Daniel P.

ThrillingPar Sancho MahleI have read several of James Patterson's stories and loved them all. I read this one too and loved it. The story is just wonderful. It kept me on the edge throughout the read.3rd Degree will stick in your mind as a fast paced novel from the opening pages until the end. The plot begins when a townhouse goes up in flames and a note is discovered at the site. It became a controversial issue because no one could say for certain whether it is an arson/terrorist act or accident. But when more violence erupts in the city pointing to the August Spies group, it became clear who was behind the arson. In this high-geared investigative novel, the characters who featured in the other stories in this series (1st To Die and 2nd Chance) also featured here. There is the San Francisco Chronicle reporter Cindy Thomas, there is Lieutenant Lindsay Boxer of the San Francisco police, Medical Examiner Claire Washburn, and Assistant District Attorney Jill Bernhardt.In what initially appeared to be for political reasons, it turns out to be something more when the Women's Murder Club gets to the bottom of it all.

  • PROPOSAL Boycott Blackstone Audio for 6 Months (August 1, 2019
    PROPOSAL Boycott Blackstone Audio for 6 months (August 1, 2019 – January 31, 2020), purchasing no new or added copies of their eAudiobooks in order to protest their embargo on library sales beginning July 1, 2019. Invite other library systems to join us in the boycott to maximize its impact. What problem are we trying to solve? The Blackstone embargo is the second to occur recently. Last summer, Tor Publishing did the same. And Hachette and Simon & Schuster both recently announced that they will change eAudiobooks from perpetual access to a metered access model, which will cost libraries more over time for the same materials. We are concerned about the pattern we see, with multiple publishers creating barriers for libraries and limiting access for library patrons. If publishers are permitted to continue creating these barriers unchecked, we believe more barriers will occur. We wish to use our purchasing power to communicate to Blackstone and other publishers that libraries are customers who add value to the publishing ecosystem. Moreover, we have an ethical obligation to maximize patron access to materials and get the best possible value for our taxpayer dollars. Working with partners who are willing to impede patron access puts those obligations at risk. What outcome do we want to see? Blackstone Audio will take steps to stop the embargo. Other publishers will rethink the premise that libraries will continue to do business with them regardless of the barriers publishers implement. What do you need to do in order to join the Washington Digital Library Consortium (WDLC) in the boycott? 1.
