Commute experiences & well-being: Exploring positive and negative effects through work-personal conflict
Will Human Rights Survive in a Multipolar World
Human rights have had a transformative influence on the post-World War II political order. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), the most prominent symbol and instrument of these change
Human Rights in Thick and Thin Societies: Universality Without Uniformity
Socio-centric societies have vibrant - albeit different - concepts of human flourishing than is typical in the individualistic West. These concepts influence the promotion of human rights, both in domestic contexts with religious minorities and in international contexts where Western ideals may clash with local norms. Human Rights in Thick and Thin Societies uncovers the original intentions of the drafters of the Universal Declaration of Human Ri…

The Remarkable Story of Somaliland
The chaos in Somalia has obscured a remarkable political development in the country’s north. Somaliland, the secessionist northwestern slice of Somalia which declared its independence in 1991, has held three consecutive competitive elections since 2001, has a parliament controlled by opposition parties, and boasts a burgeoning economy propelled by the private sector. The key to its success—the integration into politics of traditional Somali model…
The Wrong Prescription for the Congo
West African integration: A new development paradigm
