			In Pursuit of an International Civil Tribunal on the Right to Self-Determination



	This second international conference on the right to self-determination sought to respond to deepening UN acquiescence to the erosion of this basic right, by seeking to re-enforce its earlier understandings related to right to self-determination, and the institutional options for conflict resolution and management between groups within states. It addresses the question of whether the establishment of an International Civil Tribunal on the Right to Self-determination might be the most effective tool whereby international civil society might facilitate UN instruments and mechanisms as it concerns the right to self-determination.



			THE BLACK BOOK II From Hajji Malik Al-Shabazz to Barack Obama /Y. N. Kly


	The time has come for a realistic political dialogue between the American national minorities and the dominant Anglo-American ethny. All black officials in the United States government are in the same position as the president; they represent, first of all, the majority’s interests. The problematic in a so-called one- nation one-state political thesis is: how will the state assure and protect the unique needs and interests of its minorities, particularly its historically oppressed national minorities?

			A FLEETING MOMENT IN MY COUNTRY The Last Days of the LTTE De-facto State N. Malathy Foreword Radha d'Souza


	Little is known about the Tamil liberation cause and struggle, as it has been widely dismissed by global powers of all persuasions—the USA, Russia, China and India—each driven by their own realpolitik concerns and self-interests. This book, written by a Diaspora Tamil engaged in human rights work in the Tamil-controlled area of Vanni up until it was overrun by Sri Lankan forces, provides a compelling insider’s look at the motivations, issues and complexities of this largely secret civil war.


				FROM CIVIL RIGHTS TO HUMAN RIGHTS AND SELF- DETERMINATION? Proceedings of the IHRAAM Chicago Conference 2012


		The IHRAAM Conference provided a major mechanism to engage leading African American political thinkers in examining the potential that international human rights law and norms, and best state practices on internal self-determination might hold for African American collective development within the United States in the future. Key representatives from the African American popular leadership and intelligentsia flew into Chicago from all corners–-California, Georgia, Illinois, Mississippi, New York, South Carolina, Washington, and Virginia—to assess, in this context, where the African American struggle had been, where it was now, and the direction it had to go to move forward.

				THE COLONIAL PRESENT The Rule of Ignorance and the Role of Law in British Columbia Kerry Coast



		No treaties were made with the indigenous nations whose territories are now considered a Canadian province called British Columbia. Instead, a breathtaking policy of criminalization and assimilation has been vigorously carried out against them. Present day governments continue with processes that, although recently re-named and cosmetically improved, are unconstitutional and prohibited by the 1948 Genocide Convention. This book documents the colonizer’s manufacture of a new mythology to dehumanize the original peoples and strip them of their existence as nations.
