Synopsis

Global Asylum Routes examines the perilous journeys and varied receptions faced by LGBTQ asylum seekers fleeing persecution. This book addresses the crucial question of how effectively international mechanisms protect these vulnerable populations amidst increasing global migration. A key insight is that while international laws exist, their implementation differs significantly across countries, leading to disparities in asylum outcomes.

 
The book highlights the fact that cultural attitudes and legal interpretations in receiving countries greatly impact the success of asylum claims. The book explores two interconnected areas: the specific routes LGBTQ individuals take to escape unsafe environments and the diverse responses from countries receiving these asylum applications. It emphasizes the gaps in current protection mechanisms by focusing on government policies and societal acceptance.

 
Did you know that LGBTQ individuals have historically faced systemic discrimination and violence, compelling them to seek refuge elsewhere? This book offers context on international human rights laws, particularly the 1951 Refugee Convention, and how it's interpreted differently across nations.

 
The book's approach is to first introduce legal and sociological concepts, then to map common migration routes, and finally to examine asylum adjudication processes in various countries. Through mixed-methods research, including legal analysis and interviews, the book provides policy recommendations aimed at enhancing the protection and integration of LGBTQ asylum seekers. This exploration of political science and social science sheds light on the complex realities of global migration for LGBTQ individuals.

    U.S. Marines at the Battle for Sangin is a battle-intensive and deeply personal war memoir following a small Marine infantry detachment who arrive in Afghanistan with acts of killing beginning immediately. Not a week goes by before the Marines experience the deaths of friendly forces, Marine casualties, enemy combatants killed, numerous IED strikes, air strikes, predator drone strikes and around the clock patrolling in hostile territory where death is ever present. As a regional direct response Quick Reaction Force in the northern Sangin river valley of Helmand Province, the Marines are immediately put to the test narrowly avoiding one calamity after the next. The reader feels the author's angst, threat awareness and a growing sense of hostility toward his elusive enemy. Combat operations greatly intensify as the Marines find their battlefield rhythm. Body counts rise and so does the emotional toll on the author. The reader is regularly taken into the author's exhilarations from persevering through intense battle scenes but also submerged with him in the turmoil that results from the deliberate harm that he and his fellow Marines inflict on their enemy. There is a sober realization of the unavoidable dichotomy of war and the inner wounds that result from one's participation in its cruelty, whether the recipient or doer of war's violent actions. This untold story personalizes the broader themes of America's war in Afghanistan through the brutal experiences of a small Marine unit who volunteered to fight it.

    Farming and ranching success comes from the freedom to fail because there is no silver bullet. Curiosity – Farmers Discovering What Works tells journeys farmers make to find solutions that are kinder to the environment, easier on the pocket and bring purpose, pride and confidence to those in the most complex profession there is. Each story has nuggets of inspiration and insight to stimulate observation and logic in farming matters. 
    John's perspectives are associated with the practices and principles of Allan Savory's Holistic Management, which though habits and routines, changes how farmers observe, question and probe for solutions. John teaches this in New Zealand and assists with farmers around the globe as a tutor for Holistic Management International. John draws on similarly minded farmers and experts such as Joel Salatin, Gabe Brown, Allan Nation, Allen Williams, Fred Provenza, Christine Jones, Charles Massy and others offering commercial farmers new directions and insights. 
    Reviews include: 
    …his purposeful “short, sharp” essays are designed for busy people. “Hopefully it’s style will remind you of Allan Nation.” Yes, John King did indeed capture Allan’s wise pithiness. I found myself underlining or circling something in virtually every essay. It’s dense, packed with sensible advice gleaned from dozens of on-farm experiments over numerous decades. Joel Salatin, editor, Stockman Grass Farmer, Missouri, USA 
    This invaluable and important book should be compulsory reading for anyone daring to manage farming landscapes with an eye to contributing to healthier farmscapes and catchments, rural families and their animals, and to a sustainable future. How I wish I could have read and lived in such a book as this when I was a young farmer preparing to make all the mistakes. A farming, social, and environmental gem. Charles Massy, author, Call of the Reed Warbler

    Policy making is a crucial aspect of governance that directly influences the well-being of citizens and the development of a nation. It is designed to promote the general welfare of the population, addressing issues such as health, education, and public safety to ensure that the needs of citizens are met. Economic policies play a significant role in managing the economy by promoting growth, reducing unemployment, and controlling inflation, which leads to a more stable and prosperous society. 
      
    Moreover, policy making is essential for reducing social inequalities by providing support to disadvantaged groups through measures related to housing, social security, and anti-discrimination. Environmental policies are also vital for the sustainable management of natural resources and the protection of ecosystems, addressing issues such as climate change, pollution, and conservation. In terms of national security, policies related to defense, immigration, and foreign relations are critical for maintaining security and protecting the country from external threats. 
      
    Policy making also encourages innovation and progress by funding research and development, supporting new technologies, and creating a favorable environment for entrepreneurship. It provides a framework for regulation and oversight, ensuring that industries operate fairly and safely, covering areas such as financial regulations, consumer protection laws, and labor standards. Additionally, the policy-making process allows for public participation and democratic governance, giving citizens a voice in how they are governed and ensuring their interests are represented.
