Human Rights and Development
The emergence of human rights within development and the evolving relationship was increasingly brought to bear upon key debates and policies over the last couple of decades.This book provides a critically informed, comprehensive and multi-disciplinary entry-level account of this engagement between human rights and development.It is theoretically and practically grounded and explores three over-arching questions and themes: First, why and how have human rights made this breakthrough?Second, is there agreement on human rights as a concept and how it is being used and understood within diverse development practices at global, national and local levels?Third, how can we gauge the impact of human rights based approaches upon development outcomes?The book concludes with what the future may hold for human rights and development.In-depth understanding of human rights as a development challenge and development as a human rights one, is presented and delineates the diverse responses and alternative critical approaches.Wide ranging in scope, it covers many examples of human rights within development, including global policy initiatives, and vulnerable groups, such as those living in poverty, socially excluded, people living with HIV/AIDS, residents of informal settlements, and human rights defenders. This textbook will be an essential resource for social science students, particularly in the fields of development studies, human rights and geography, as well as those interested in the intersection between law, human rights and social change.It should also appeal to practitioners in development and human rights.

Programming Machine Learning : From Coding to Deep Learning
You've decided to tackle machine learning - because you're job hunting, embarking on a new project, or just think self-driving cars are cool.But where to start? It's easy to be intimidated, even as a software developer.The good news is that it doesn't have to be that hard.Master machine learning by writing code one line at a time, from simple learning programs all the way to a true deep learning system.Tackle the hard topics by breaking them down so they're easier to understand, and build your confidence by getting your hands dirty.Peel away the obscurities of machine learning, starting from scratch and going all the way to deep learning.Machine learning can be intimidating, with its reliance on math and algorithms that most programmers don't encounter in their regular work.Take a hands-on approach, writing the Python code yourself, without any libraries to obscure what's really going on.Iterate on your design, and add layers of complexity as you go.Build an image recognition application from scratch with supervised learning.Predict the future with linear regression. Dive into gradient descent, a fundamental algorithm that drives most of machine learning.Create perceptrons to classify data. Build neural networks to tackle more complex and sophisticated data sets.Train and refine those networks with backpropagation and batching.Layer the neural networks, eliminate overfitting, and add convolution to transform your neural network into a true deep learning system.Start from the beginning and code your way to machine learning mastery.What You Need: The examples in this book are written in Python, but don't worry if you don't know this language: you'll pick up all the Python you need very quickly.Apart from that, you'll only need your computer, and your code-adept brain.

Women's rights are human rights
Attaining equality between women and men and eliminating all forms of discrimination against women are fundamental human rights and United Nations values.Women around the world nevertheless regularly suffer violations of their human rights throughout their life, and realizing women's human rights has not always been prioritized.Achieving equality between women and men requires a comprehensive understanding of the ways in which women experience discrimination and are denied equality so as to develop appropriate strategies to eliminate such discrimination.This publication provides an introduction to women's human rights, beginning with the main provisions in international human rights law and going on to explain particularly relevant concepts for fully understanding women's human rights.

The European Union and Global Development : A Rights-based Development Policy?
This book systematically analyses the EU’s commitment to a human rights-based approach to development through the lens of global justice theory.It identifies limits to the EU’s approach and discusses how standardised policies, particularly in the case of human rights sanctions, may be perceived as neo-colonially intrusive and can come at the cost of recognizing the experiences and interests of vulnerable groups and allowing for partner countries’ democratic ownership of their own development trajectory.Engaging with primary sources including official documents, reports, and 45 semi-structured interviews with EU and member state officials, the book also presents a novel explanation for why the EU, at times, steps out of its commitment to rights-based development and chooses differentiated foreign policy responses to similar situations.This book will be of key interest to scholars and students of EU foreign policy, EU development policy human rights, and international relations as well as policy practitioners working in the fields of development, human rights and democracy promotion.

Citizen Rights, Migrant Rights and Civic Stratification
This book explores the concept of civic stratification and examines its contemporary relevance for analysis and understanding of the functioning of rights in society. David Lockwood’s (1996) concept of civic stratification outlines the way in which the rights associated with citizenship can be a source of inequality by virtue of their formal granting or denial by the state, or by informal impediments to their full realisation.The purpose of this book is to explore the meaning and significance of this concept, and elaborate its potential in offering a framework for understanding the dynamic nature of rights.Lockwood’s model reverses Marshall’s (1950) view of citizenship as guaranteed inclusion in society and is linked to the way that the differential entitlement and the qualifying conditions associated with certain rights can be harnessed as a means of control.While both Marshall and Lockwood were principally concerned with the rights attaching to citizenship, this book extends the insights of these two authors to show how such controls apply in various ways to both citizens and non-citizens alike.Building on Lockwood’s conception of ‘moral resources’ the book set out a theoretical framework and empirical illustration of how the position of different groups within society is subject to shifting perceptions of social worth and is engaged both in claims to fuller access to rights and in justifications of their denial or removal. This book will appeal to scholars and higher-level students with relevant interests in sociolegal studies, sociology, social policy and politics.
