Conclusion --BackmatterExile as Forced Migrations injects cutting edge studies on forced migrations (DIDPS, IDPs, Refugee studies), displacement and resettlement, and generational issues that mark the exilic period (6th century B.C.E.). Founder and co-chair of the "Exile/Forced Migrations in Biblical Literature" (Society of Biblical Literature) and a member of the American Sociological Association (International Migration Section), Ahn furnishes biblical scholars with up-to-date sociological information to examine critically, the exile as forced migrations in the cadre of economics of migrations. Biblically speaking, Ahn isolates the three varying views on the exile. The 70 years in Babylon is cast as three and a half generations, with each Judeo-Babylonian generation (first-"1.5"-second-third) responding to its own set of issues and concerns (Ps 137, Jer 29, Isa 43, Num 32). This definitive work reframes the approach to study of the exilic period, as "generation-units", sociologically, from the first forced migration in 597 B.C.E. to the first return migrations in 538 B.C.E. Exile as Forced Migrations goes beyond traditional emphasis on an important edifice and its institution. It rightfully returns to peoples in flight and plight.Beihefte zur Zeitschrift für die alttestamentliche Wissenschaft ;Bd. 417.Emigration and immigrationSocial aspectsForced migrationSocial aspectsJewish diasporaHistoriographyJewsHistoryBabylonian captivity, 598-515 B.CJewsHistoryTo 70 A.DBabylon.Biblical Theology.Exile.Forced Migrations.Judah.Emigration and immigrationSocial aspects.Forced migrationSocial aspects.Jewish diasporaHistoriography.JewsHistoryJewsHistory221.8/93303BC 6865rvkAhn John J1679706MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910826004903321Exile as forced migrations4048149UNINA03895nam 2200757Ia 450 991081109440332120240418141033.097866120335511-282-03355-70-8135-4650-810.36019/9780813546506(CKB)1000000000702860(EBL)413884(OCoLC)476239209(SSID)ssj0000132379(PQKBManifestationID)11136149(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000132379(PQKBWorkID)10039223(PQKB)11759633(MiAaPQ)EBC413884(OCoLC)318240473(MdBmJHUP)muse8055(DE-B1597)529188(OCoLC)1125187392(DE-B1597)9780813546506(Au-PeEL)EBL413884(CaPaEBR)ebr10275491(CaONFJC)MIL203355(EXLCZ)99100000000070286020080414d2009 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrCrimes of power & states of impunity the U.S. response to terror /Michael Welch1st ed.New Brunswick, N.J.

States of Impunity -- Appendix -- Notes -- Cases -- References -- Index -- About the AuthorSince 9/11, a new configuration of power situated at the core of the executive branch of the U.S. government has taken hold. In Crimes of Power & States of Impunity, Michael Welch takes a close look at the key historical, political, and economic forces shaping the country's response to terror. Welch continues the work he began in Scapegoats of September 11th and argues that current U.S. policies, many enacted after the attacks, undermine basic human rights and violate domestic and international law. He recounts these offenses and analyzes the system that sanctions them, offering fresh insight into the complex relationship between power and state crime. Welch critically examines the unlawful enemy combatant designation, Guantanamo Bay, recent torture cases, and collateral damage relating to the war in Iraq. This book transcends important legal arguments as Welch strives for a broader sociological interpretation of what transpired early this century, analyzing the abuses of power that jeopardize our safety and security.Critical issues in crime and society.Crimes of power and states of impunityTerrorismGovernment policyUnited StatesNational securityUnited StatesIntelligence serviceUnited StatesSubversive activitiesUnited StatesTerrorismGovernment policyNational securityIntelligence serviceSubversive activities363.325/1560973Welch MichaelPh.
