Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The vast majority of the global population acquires citizenship purely by accidental circumstances of birth. There is little doubt that securing membership status in a given state bequeaths to some a world filled with opportunity and condemns others to a life with little hope. Gaining privileges by such arbitrary criteria as one’s birthplace is discredited in virtually all fields of public life, yet birthright entitlements still dominate our laws when it comes to allotting membership in a state. In The Birthright Lottery, Ayelet Shachar argues that birthright citizenship in an affluent society can be thought of as a form of property inheritance: that is, a valuable entitlement transmitted by law to a restricted group of recipients under conditions that perpetuate the transfer of this prerogative to their heirs. She deploys this fresh perspective to establish that nations need to expand their membership boundaries beyond outdated notions of blood-and-soil in sculpting the body politic. Located at the intersection of law, economics, and political philosophy, The Birthright Lottery further advocates redistributional obligations on those benefiting from the inheritance of membership, with the aim of ameliorating its most glaring opportunity inequalities.

An ancient tome believed to belong to the most infamous Druid in history. Notoriously secretive, the order of the Druids passes their secrets from parent to child, by word of mouth. This tome might be the only record of their rites and blood magic, ever written. It’s the best chance I have of curing my curse. Unfortunately, it’s in the possession of a notorious witch, Kasey Chase. She fancies herself the hero of New York City, so I doubt she’ll part with such a dangerous relic voluntarily. Particularly with an army of vampires stalking the city’s streets. Good thing I wasn’t planning on asking. Join Seth in Half-Blood’s Birthright, an action-packed urban fantasy adventure set in the heart of New York City.

Download or read book A Law of Blood-ties - The 'Right' to Access Genetic Ancestry written by Alice Diver and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-08-28 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text collates and examines the jurisprudence that currently exists in respect of blood-tied genetic connection, arguing that the right to identity often rests upon the ability to identify biological ancestors, which in turn requires an absence of adult-centric veto norms. It looks firstly to the nature and purpose of the blood-tie as a unique item of birthright heritage, whose socio-cultural value perhaps lies mainly in preventing, or perhaps engendering, a feared or revered sense of ‘otherness.’ It then traces the evolution of the various policies on ‘telling’ and accessing truth, tying these to the diverse body of psychological theories on the need for unbroken attachments and the harms of being origin deprived. The ‘law’ of the blood-tie comprises of several overlapping and sometimes conflicting strands: the international law provisions and UNCRC Country Reports on the child’s right to identity, recent Strasbourg case law, and domestic case law from a number of jurisdictions on issues such as legal parentage, vetoes on post-adoption contact, court-delegated decision-making, overturned placements and the best interests of the relinquished child. The text also suggests a means of preventing the discriminatory effects of denied ancestry, calling upon domestic jurists, legislators, policy-makers and parents to be mindful of the long-term effects of genetic ‘kinlessness’ upon origin deprived persons, especially where they have been tasked with protecting this vulnerable section of the population.

Returning from the ashes of Virginia's guerrilla battles, where he fought with John Mosby's Partisan Rangers, Press Anderson becomes enmeshed in his family's struggle for survival when a vicious cattle baron decides to turn west Texas into his personal fiefdom. Maneuvering through a brutal world where racial hatred and violence toward women are the order of the day, Press is thrust into the forefront of the fight for an inheritance he detests, a birthright bequeathed in blood. To rescue the woman he loves from cutthroats backed by a corrupt law, he will be forced to confront his forgotten origins and ally himself with society's outcasts. Half Comanche, half white, and all man, Press Anderson must discover whether he embodies the best of two worlds or the worst. His answer will be found at the point of a gun.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Gabrielle Zevin—the author of the critically acclaimed Elsewhere—comes the first book in the Birthright series, All These Things I've Done, a masterful novel about an impossible romance, a mafia family, and the ties that forever bind us. In 2083, chocolate and coffee are illegal, paper is hard to find, water is carefully rationed, and New York City is rife with crime and poverty. And yet, for Anya Balanchine, the sixteen-year-old daughter of the city's most notorious (and dead) crime boss, life is fairly routine. It consists of going to school, taking care of her siblings and her dying grandmother, trying to avoid falling in love with the new assistant D.A.'s son, and avoiding her loser ex-boyfriend. That is until her ex is accidently poisoned by the chocolate her family manufactures and the police think she's to blame. Suddenly, Anya finds herself thrust unwillingly into the spotlight--at school, in the news, and most importantly, within her mafia family.

Download or read book Citizenship in Question written by Benjamin N. Lawrance and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2016-12-09 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Citizenship is often assumed to be a clear-cut issue—either one has it or one does not. However, as the contributors to Citizenship in Question demonstrate, citizenship is not self-evident; it emerges from often obscure written records and is interpreted through ambiguous and dynamic laws. In case studies that analyze the legal barriers to citizenship rights in over twenty countries, the contributors explore how states use evidentiary requirements to create and police citizenship, often based on fictions of racial, ethnic, class, and religious differences. Whether examining the United States’ deportation of its own citizens, the selective use of DNA tests and secret results in Thailand, or laws that have stripped entire populations of citizenship, the contributors emphasize the political, psychological, and personal impact of citizenship policies. Citizenship in Question incites scholars to revisit long-standing political theories and debates about nationality, free movement, and immigration premised on the assumption of clear demarcations between citizens and noncitizens.
