Synopsis

"Embassy Support Access" explores the crucial role embassies play in supporting LGBTQ citizens abroad, especially when facing discrimination or persecution. It examines how international relations, human rights, and LGBTQ advocacy intersect within consular services. A key premise is that while embassies are obligated to assist all citizens, LGBTQ individuals often require specialized support due to unique legal and social challenges in certain countries. For example, a transgender individual might face passport discrepancies, or a same-sex couple could encounter issues with marriage recognition, highlighting the need for tailored consular discretion.

 
The book begins by establishing the legal and ethical framework governing consular services, drawing from international law and human rights conventions. It then develops its argument through three thematic sections: emergency assistance, documentation challenges, and legal referrals. These sections analyze real-world scenarios and assess the effectiveness of embassy responses, using case studies and quantitative data. One intriguing fact explored is the varying levels of emergency assistance provided to LGBTQ individuals facing hate crimes or arbitrary arrest.

 
Ultimately, "Embassy Support Access" proposes policy recommendations to improve embassy support for LGBTQ individuals, addressing issues such as staff training and resource allocation. It uses a comprehensive approach, drawing upon government reports, academic research, and personal interviews, and is intended for students, scholars, and professionals in political science, international relations, and human rights.

    The Kingdom of God Is Within You

    "There is one thing, and only one thing, in which it is granted to you to be free in life… that is to recognise and profess the truth."
    
    The culmination of a lifetime of philosophical thought and consideration, The Kingdom of God is Within You (1893) is a powerful treatise on faith, morality and the futility of violence. It was banned in the author's native Russia because of its advocacy of pacifism, its questioning of the established socio-political order and its criticism of the Russian Orthodox Church.
    
    Tolstoy redefines Christianity as a personal, moral revolution rather than a mystical or institutional faith and advocates for a life of moral integrity and personal connection to God, envisioning a society transformed not by force, but by individuals acting according to their consciences. His radical rejection of organised religion and state violence has inspired generations of reformers, from Mahatma Gandhi to Martin Luther King Jr.
    Leo Tolstoy (1828–1910) was a Russian novelist, philosopher, and social reformer, widely regarded as one of the greatest writers of all time. He is best known for his epic novels War and Peace and Anna Karenina, both celebrated for their intricate character development and profound exploration of moral dilemmas and human nature. In his later years, Tolstoy experienced a spiritual awakening which led him to reject materialism and embrace a life of simplicity, seeking to align his life with his beliefs about non-violence and compassion. Tolstoy's legacy endures not only through his literary masterpieces but also through his profound impact on literature and philosophy.

    A dynamic historian revisits the workers’ internationals, whose scope and significance are commonly overlooked. 
    In current debates about globalization, open and borderless elites are often set in opposition to the immobile and protectionist working classes. This view obscures a major historical fact: for around a century—from the 1860s to the 1970s—worker movements were at the cutting edge of internationalism. 
    The creation in London of the International Workingmen’s Association in 1864 was a turning point. What would later be called the “First International” aspired to bring together European and American workers across languages, nationalities, and trades. It was a major undertaking in a context marked by opening borders, moving capital, and exploding inequalities. 
    In this urgent, engaging work, historian Nicolas Delalande explores how international worker solidarity developed, what it accomplished in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and why it collapsed over the past fifty years, to the point of disappearing from our memories.
