Introduction to Climate Change Management

Transitioning to a Low-Carbon Economy

This book provides climate students with the basic scientific background to climate change management. Students will learn about international and national approaches to climate change management defined in voluntary initiatives as well as in national law and international agreements. The book describes mitigation and adaptation measures, monitoring and reporting of greenhouse gas emissions, and strategies for achieving a low-carbon economy, including green finance. This book combines theory and practice, introducing students to the conceptual background but also taking a professional and technical approach with case studies and low carbon toolkits. Filled with didactic elements such as concept schemes, tables, charts, figures, examples, as well as questions and answers at the end of the chapters, this book aims to engage critical thinking and the discussion of important topics of our days. The low-carbon strategy is one of the answers to limiting the greenhouse effect on our planet. This strategy is to minimize the overall carbon consumption in the life cycle of the products we consume, from the extraction of raw materials to the end of their life. The future is being built today. This book will guide its readers along the path of imagining and realizing a low-carbon economy.”

Dinamika Korupsi di Indonesia

Buku Pendidikan Antikorupsi

Bicara mengenai korupsi memang tidak ada habisnya. Dinamika korupsi di Indonesia terbagi dalam dua perspektif, yaitu kultural dan struktural. Dalam perspektif kultural, korupsi dilakukan dengan kondisi sadar sehingga dilakukan tanpa rasa penyesalan dan berulang, (budaya) korupsi di masyarakat terbentuk karena adanya kondisi yang memungkinkan atau terkadang memaksa seseorang untuk melakukan hal tersebut. Pola-pola yang ada di masyarakat antara lain: kesenjangan ekonomi, buruknya pelayanan birokrasi, penegakan hukum yang lemah, minimnya edukasi dan pendidikan anti korupsi sejak dini. Sedangkan struktural dapat digambarkan dengan adanya kasus korupsi dimana pelaku yang terlibat berhubungan dengan kekuasaan dan menyangkut struktur organisasi lembaga. Pelaku mempunyai kekuasaan dan di dalam struktur ada sejumlah orang. Orang-orang tersebut yang terkait dengan dengan struktur-struktur kekuasaan sepanjang alat buktinya kuat maka akan diproses sesuai jalur hukum. Dalam korupsi struktural tentunya ada pihak-pihak lain yang terlibat. Di dalam buku ini akan dibahas lebih lanjut mengenai dinamika korupsi mulai dari masa pra penjajahan sampai pada era reformasi.

Crime and Punishment in Islamic Law

A Fresh Interpretation

In Crime and Punishment in Islamic Law: A Fresh Interpretation, Mohammad Kamali considers problems associated with and proposals for reform of the hudud punishments prescribed by Islamic criminal law, and other topics related to crime and punishment in Shariah. He examines what the Qur'an and hadith say about hudud punishments, as well as just retaliation (qisas), and discretionary punishments (ta'zir), and looks at modern-day applications of Islamic criminal law in 15 Muslim countries. Particular attention is given to developments in Malaysia, a multi-religious society, federal state, and self-described democracy, where a lively debate about hudud has been on-going for the last three decades. Malaysia presents a particularly interesting case study of how a reasonably successful country with a market economy, high levels of exposure to the outside world, and a credible claim to inclusivity, deals with Islamic and Shariah-related issues. Kamali concludes that there is a significant gap between the theory and practice of hudud in the scriptural sources of Shariah and the scholastic articulations of jurisprudence of the various schools of Islamic law, arguing that literalism has led to such rigidity as to make Islamic criminal law effectively a dead letter. His goal is to provide a fresh reading of the sources of Shariah and demonstrate how the Qur'an and Sunnah can show the way forward to needed reforms of Islamic criminal law.
