We all have inherent rights that we must be free to enjoy regardless of our status- nationality, race, religion, sexual orientation, ethnicity, language, or any other. That’s why many of us are now more cautious and advocate for rights entitlement without discrimination.

Authors have not been left behind, and they are playing their part through human rights books.

These books typically address human rights such as freedom from torture and slavery, liberty and life rights, work and education rights, freedom of expression and opinion, etc.

If you are passionate about human rights and justice like I am, I’m sure you always look for different points of view about human rights from books.

Let's see the list of recommended books about human rights.

What Are The Most Insightful Books About Human Rights?

What Good Law Can Do, by Jolyon Maugham (2023)

The Good Law Project is a UK-based legal campaign group founded by Jolyon Maugham QC with the belief that the law should work for everyone, not just for people with power and privilege. The organization has gained recognition for its landmark cases against the government and has won some of the most significant constitutional cases in recent memory. It is now the largest legal campaign group in the UK.

In his book, Jolyon Maugham shares his inspiration and purpose behind The Good Law Project and presents a new vision for how the law can be used to fight against injustice and work for the benefit of all. He argues that the current legal system often fails to serve those without power or privilege, and that it is time for the law to be reformed to better serve the needs of society as a whole.

Police Fragility, by Joseph Schaefer

Police Fragility is a must-read if you are passionate about bigotry and keen on the mistrust that exists between law enforcement and the community. The book is an excellent account of why African Americans live in constant fear of the police.

It has incredible facts and hard truths about the history of policing in America with excellently detailed unknown information. The author clearly states that for everyone to survive in America, they must make an effort to be concerned about the other person. People must come together to treat each other with dignity, remain respectful, and avoid unfair judgment based on skin color.

This book is excellent because we have lived to witness or even experienced police brutality. Many people can relate.

The book also highlights the mistakes that concerned parties have made along the way, and the author gives suggestions about what can be done by law enforcement and communities for improvement.

Community engagement must always be the platform for the police to work every day, even before any concerns can be brought to light but not after issues are made known. You will find crucial discussions with which communities and police agencies must get to terms. By knowing more, we become more and act more.

Bodies on the Line, by Lauren Rankin

For almost five decades, abortion has been legalized in the United States. However, with substantial street opposition and a new conservative Supreme Court majority, abortion existence is now under threat, and the matter has become even more pressing.

Even so, numerous volunteers and clinic escorts are ready to stand up and guard abortion access even if it means facing violence and terrorism, just like it has been through decades. The quest has been deadly for some.

Clinic escorts have been fighting abortion conflicts at the front line, and it is they that will win as they focus on replacing hostility and resistance with humanity.

This book collects different stories of the country’s volunteers who have been brave enough. It accounts for the author’s interviews with patients and clinic staff members and has input and researched information collected from experts on abortion rights.

The book makes a clear case that abortion is fundamental for human dignity and that there are possible stakes if it is ended. It calls us to celebrate the unsung but crucial abortion heroes and for us to protect this primary health care right before time runs up.

Scanned, by Nick Corbishley

We couldn’t even think of being denied physical access to our workplaces, businesses, or general livelihood the other day. It never occurred to many of us that entering a grocery store, sitting at a restaurant for a bite, visiting a loved one in the hospital, or even accessing health care would become challenging, if not impossible.

But these are the scenarios we have to face every day, and worse now, they are happening worldwide, even in the so-called democracies. They may even become our collective future, as revealed by Big Tech, Artificial Intelligence, and state-sponsored apps. All this is in the name of public health “protection” with vaccine passports.

The stakes are rising. If you lack a vaccine passport, you will be denied access to essential services, including earning a living or touring. You will also be exposed to unaccustomed corporate and government surveillance levels, behavioral control, and data mining, even with one.

In the book, Nick analyses and exposes the highly growing rates of lies and transcends that underpin the complete erosion of personal freedoms. Backed by rigorous research, Nick unravels how the vaccine passports rollout represents the violation of bodily autonomy and privacy. It only immortalizes the notion that ‘minor’ collective sacrifice may bring back normalcy.

We may never return to normalcy if we keep following these paths. Instead, a harsh existence form will result, and we won’t even be in control over our lives.

The Intersectional Environmentalist, by Leah Thomas

This book examines the inseparable entanglement between racism, privilege, and environmentalism. It aims to promote awareness of the fundamental fact and truth that to save the planet, we must uplift the voices of the people, most importantly, the unheard ones.

The author is a prominent voice and an activist who invented “Intersectional Environmentalism,” and you can be sure to get crucial insights about human rights. Leah calls us to instigate change for everyone and work towards empowering everyone for the betterment of the planet.

The book discusses pressing issues we and the planet face and dismantles problems of privilege. Often, proposals and platforms meant for environmentalism or climate change seem more willing to sacrifice the vulnerable. Leah shows how people of color are treated unequally or unfairly affected by environmental injustices.

We can only achieve sustainability if we spotlight underrepresented communities in building a greener and equitable future. The fight for a better planet is linked to the civil rights fight. None can exist without the other.

Free Speech, by Jacob Mchangama

Free speech may be hailed by many as the ‘first freedom’ and the foundation of democracy. However, it is a challenging concept that is prone to become eroded during times of disorder.

We may have gained a lot from free speech, but we also stand to lose a lot if we don’t practice and advocate for it. Today, free speech retreats in authoritarian states and democracies worldwide.

In this book, Jacob tracks the fascinating legal, cultural, and political history of the idea. He puts Free Speech together using captivating tales told by defenders of free speech. You will find Demosthenes, Ida B. Wells, free thinker al-Rāzī, and other modern-day activists' input.

Jacob aims to let readers know that the freedom to exchange ideas without discrimination is the drive for intellectual achievement and an enabler of worldwide equality and advancement of freedom. However, the desire for speech restriction is still paramount and constant.

Jacob also analyzes how free speech champions can be driven to get into speech restrictions primarily due to growing new and opposing voices that seek to challenge privilege and power.

Greater Reset, by Michael D. Greaney & Dawn K. Brohawn

The Covid-19 pandemic hit nations and resulted in decimated lives, social norms, and economies. Instead of bringing people together to fight a common enemy, it created a broad demarcation and widened worldwide political, economic, and social divisions.

The pandemic also resulted in lost faith in reason and intensified global afflictions of racism, poverty, environmental destruction, and war. That’s not the end of its implications. It also brought up proposals to recreate the society and global economy.

The most notable and notorious one is the 2020 World Economic Forum recommendations for “the Great Reset.” This has only fused monopoly capitalism and welfare state socialism. It systematically eliminates the fundamental support for freedom and independence, referred to as rights of/to private property.

Is this simply a scheme for the elite to take charge of the lives of the ordinary people, or is it a good plan but one with a misguided approach aimed at correcting systemic ills?

Whatever the case, we must ask ourselves; how will everyone’s freedom, dignity, and power be guarded and fostered in moments like these when human rights and their inherent sources have been made irrelevant?

We must look into what natural law and economic personalism have in store for a prosperous, liberating, and hopeful future.

Taking Control!, by Anthony Barnett

This book is a clear-eyed perspective of the precipice that currently balances the world, and it also provides a qualified optimism vital for survival and creating a better world.

Anthony illustrates the details using Biden vs. Trumpism to show that shorthand in some historical moments can be misleading even when reasonably accurate.

What led to Biden vs. Trumpism goes beyond the two, and the people’s ability to make the society better depends on more than the two or their supporters. Many actions and results are currently generated by those who the shorthand represents.

Confrontations may be the creators of better things, or they may be the opposing forces for something worse. There are possible action avenues, but the fact remains; that the questions surpass the answers.

Can conflicting parties come together to oppose the greater evil and then sort out their differences afterward? Or will those already fractured remain that way with their right united in opposition instead of an actual ideology or policy becoming powerful and trying to stop socialist opposition or democratic forms?

We need to understand how coalitions hold together as we embrace open ecological politics but not allow the overturning of democratic rule.

The War on Disabled People, by Ellen Clifford

In 2016 a UN report established that the UK government was reprehensible for systematic and grave violation of the rights of the disabled. Interestingly, there has been an obsessive drive to cut public spending and irrational hostility against the society’s most disadvantaged.

The Tory government is responsible for this, and the conditions of the disabled Britain people keep deteriorating. There have been punitive welfare regimes and evident removal of vital support and services. What’s more, an ideological rule exists that aims to deny disability resulting in a “human catastrophe,” as the UN describes it.

Ellen has been an activist passionate about fighting the resistance war on the disabled. In this book, she reveals the reasons as to why and how this state of affairs came to be-the unsupportive political opposition, self-centered charities meant to support the disabled, media demonization, and ideological myopia. A wealthy government has marginalized the disabled with freedom exemption.

Despite the deep-biting austerity, there is now a vibrant activist movement ready to fight back, and there are supporters ready to hold the government responsible. The phrase “Nothing About Us Without Us” has now come alive and makes its point. But more importantly, we must all stand together and fight for an equitable society.

Military Justice, by Nigel D. White

Many of us narrowly understand military law and study specialist laws, institutions, and processes that govern service personnel. However, Military Justice takes a broader approach. The book examines military justice from a more excellent point of view for the consideration of the duties and rights of those involved with military operations. Military rights are complex and often contested.

Nigel explores the relationship between society and the military to develop a particular case for military justice. He makes a case for military justice to be continued alongside critical reforms. He also discusses the societal military role and recognizes the substantial influences of law and justice upon it.

As you read along, you will see military justice framed broadly to discuss relevant laws that include constitutional law, service law, international human rights law, the law of conflict, and international criminal law.

Nigel supports his discussion by analyzing different input from international and domestic courts. You will see various legal problems that may occur in military contexts and the need to position military justice as a component for balancing the duties and rights of soldiers and the government.

Final Thoughts on Books on Human Rights

If you want to broaden your knowledge about human rights, the books above are greatly informative with crucial and different human rights dimensions. Whether you are an activist, law enforcement, a seeker of justice, or just a passionate fan, you have a lot to gain.

]]>

The books you read can often change the way you see yourself, as well as the world around you. The last years were full of challenges, having the world struggle with all kinds of issues. As a direct consequence of all these problems, understanding economics and social statuses might need a new reflection. These books will also help to understand the most important political issues that the presidential candidates need to face.

What Are The Most Important Social Issues of our Time?

Some social issues that are widely considered to be important include poverty, inequality, discrimination, and climate change.

Poverty is an enduring problem in many parts of the world and has a profound impact on people's lives. It can trap individuals and families in a cycle of deprivation, preventing them from accessing essential services and opportunities.

Inequality is also a major social issue. It can take many forms, such as economic inequality, gender inequality, or racial inequality. Discrimination occurs when people are treated unfairly or differently based on certain characteristics, such as their race, ethnicity, or gender.

Climate change is another significant social issue that is affecting our planet. It refers to the long-term alteration of temperature and typical weather patterns in a place.

Human rights issues are often complex and multi-faceted. They can be difficult to address because there are often many different stakeholders involved. However, it is important to continue to raise awareness about human rights issues and work towards finding solutions.

Here are the topics, that are also important for authors to fully discover the current problems of our society:

These books can provide valuable insights and perspectives on these important topics.

All in all, here are the best social-economical non-ficion books that open eyes for social issues.

What Is Our Selection of Books on Social Issues?

This Is Going to Hurt, by Michael Ernest (2022)

Book on economic sovereignty, child support, breastfeeding

This book gives out some facts that we all feel about but we are never really talking about. The author puts everything on the table, without feeling worried about offending or hurting.

After all, you know what society is like these days… Anything you say can and will offend someone. Eventually!

The book goes in the black community direction. Or better said, it feels like it goes into the so called community, which is not really one. It is aimed at those who are afraid to say things, like the problems of economic sovereignty of the African American people or other concrete topics including breastfeeding and child support.

It is time to stop being apologetic for the past or misfortune. It is a different society, and it feels like it was about time someone said something about it.

Author Michael Ernest wrote this book for anyone involved in one way or another. It is a simple and exciting book that hooked me straight away.

It makes sense, and while it may hurt some people, it is the brutal truth that everyone sees or feels.

Start with Hello, by Shannan Martin (2022)

Book on Christian social issues

Simple in theory and easy to follow, this book is the type that makes you a better person. Or at least this is what it feels like…

Unless you live in a small cul-de-sac where everyone knows everyone, chances are you do not know most of your neighbors’ names.

The society is more divided than ever. Everyone drives, people only wave at each other and barely stop for a chat.

When was the last time you stopped for a chat? When was the last time you made a friend? How about meeting a new neighbor?

I know, it feels like we are always in a rush and less likely to care about anyone else but our families. Well, this book changes everything and provides easy practices to be a more connected neighbor and human being.

It addresses the lack of social connectivity, but in a way that makes it look like a guide. It makes you more empathetic and connected, but it also teaches you how to find common ground with others.

What We Owe the Future, by William MacAskill (2022)

Book on moral, climate change and positive influence of future generations

The world is in our hands, no doubt about it. Humanity has an impressive history, but if you think about it, it is only thousands of years old. What we do today could have an impact for millions of years.

Written by a philosopher, this book is focused on the idea of longtermism. What does it mean? I am Influencing the far future.

I know, we all bother about it, and we all try to do something better for future generations, but are we really doing the right thing?

Pandemics, climate change, industrial moves, and so on, all these things affect us today, and we believe we know better than future generations.

I would say this book is a bit motivational and can boost the idea of helping our grandchildren thrive by making the right choices today.

Young, Broke, And Educated, by Alexander Baima

Book on inequality and higher education

Alexander Baima wrote this book from personal experience. He graduated from college with over $80,000 in student debt. By 29 years old, his parents had a house and a child and they only lived on a single income. By 29, the author still had $50,000 in student debt. It makes you wonder – how can generations from the past gain so much more than today's generations?

This book analyzes the way purchasing power has moved – sadly, in the wrong direction. Economics systems might have evolved, but people are doing worse and worse. You will learn what needs to be done to ensure future generations benefit from the same level of wealth in the long run – simple steps, nothing fancy and clear instructions.

Deaths Of Despair And The Future Of Capitalism, by Angus Deaton and Anne Case

Book on inequality, poverty, addiction

Only in the USA, life expectancy has fallen for a few years in a row. Last time it happened, it was 1918. The so called deaths of despair are clearly responsible for these issues and they include drug overdoses, alcoholism and even suicide. It is not the first time the authors try to raise some attention on this topic, but this book has done it in a marvelous way.

The book underlines the American dream, but in a way that more and more people avoid. Despair and pain are extremely common and the gap between the poor and the rich gets bigger with time. Capitalism, which has successfully helped countries go back on track, is now killing the USA in an obvious manner. Apart from underlining these problems, the book also indicates the steps forward.

More: The 10,000 Year Rise Of The World Economy, by Philip Coggan

Book on economics

In a world where everyone is trying to be ahead by anticipating the next big thing, this book takes you through the history of the trade industry – all the way back to the ancient Rome. Not only do you get a glimpse over past economies that were extremely sophisticated, but understanding cycles and factors behind growth will help you determine what might come next.

At a first glance, it may look like a history book. You learn about the economy of Mesopotamia, as well as mining in the United Kingdom or factories in the Philippines. However, you also get to see how agriculture, technology and demographics – among other factors – can influence the human civilization in terms of progress and prosperity.

Basic Income and Sovereign Money, by Geoff Crocker

Book on equality and solving poverty

As you go through the first few chapters, you might find this book to be a bit radical. It is not. Instead, it aims to challenge your beliefs and expectations about today's economy. Believe it or not, the author actually comes up with some impressive arguments, even if you do not necessarily agree with all the statements.

You do not have to be a genius to see it – today's economic system is not really functional. There is plenty of austerity and everyone seems to be in debt. Moreover, the pay gets lower and lower. Poverty inevitably kicks in, not to mention the ecological damage that tops all these issues. All the policies in today's system prevent it from modern engineering though. The author pleads for a universal basic income then – a limited system according to the economic output, only to prevent inflation. It sounds incredible, but the author believes it can be done.

The Uncounted, by Alex Cobham

Book on economics

The Uncounted is one of the best economics books that open eyes for social issues. The book works on a simple principle – what you can count really matters. Everything is dictated by numbers, from major decisions to actual policies. Data is driven by statistics – you see numbers wherever you look. The general idea is fairly simple – if you cannot be counted, you do not count. It sounds like a game, but it is actually true.

The author argues that this kind of mentality is responsible for plenty of damage in today's society. It is also the main issue behind so many inequalities out there. The author shows how statistics from all fields and industries make it obvious – disadvantaged groups end up underrepresented. They are marginalized even further and the gap grows bigger and bigger. Meanwhile, the super rich population and large corporations gain even more – more opacity and less transparency.

The book is well researched and shows how what you count can make the difference, while what you do not count will become forgotten overtime, leading to even more drama and inequality.

How To Be an Antiracist, by Ibram X. Kendi

Book on solving racism

Black Lives Matter movement opened the eyes of many people that racism is still a serious issue. On the first presidential debate in September 2020, racism was the most important political issue.

Equality starts when people are treated evenly. In this deeply empathetic book, the author shows that when it comes to racism, neutrality is not an option. We need to become part of the solution.

Ibram X. Kendi helps the readers to recognise that everyone is, at times, complicit in racism whether they realise it or not. Along the way, Kendi reveals all the myths and taboos that so often cloud our eyesight.

Radical Uncertainty: Decision-Making Beyond The Numbers, by John Kay and Mervyn King

Book on economics and uncertainty

This book aims to answer a question that every grown up will need an answer to at some point or another – how can you make a good decision with all the uncertainty around you? Prior to moving on to decisions, the book underlines some of the most common concerns out there. Financial crises strike when least expected. People need certainties for decisions, but they can never have. The impact of taking risks can be tremendous in the long run.

However, this is not the first generation to face uncertainty and definitely not the last one. People have managed to find specific ways to deal with uncertainty and risk overtime. All in all, this masterpiece draws some attention over economics, philosophies and mathematical algorithms that can help the world deal with the unknown future. Moreover, it can teach you how to overcome today's problems in the safest possible way.

The Deficit Myth, by Stephanie Kelton

Book on economics and monetary policy

This book is a bestseller and it is easy to tell why. It explored the modern monetary theory, which practically affects every individual out there. This theory affects how you see things like poverty, wealth, climate and so on. No matter what the issue is about, everything revolves around the exact same thing – how to find the money to make it happen. This is where people and governments get stuck.

The author goes through all the myths and misconceptions that prevent people from acting and reacting. She talks about the issue regarding future generations in debt, private investments, longterm effects and so on. There are other ways to understand money, taxes and the effects over the society. From the author's point of view, the modern monetary theory can push things forward, bring in some opportunities and create a new economy – and she has some good arguments for it too.

Angrynomics, by Eric Lonergan and Mark Blyth

Book on inequality

Angrynomics has a pretty self explanatory title and can easily qualify among the best economics books that open eyes for social issues. To understand the idea behind the book, you have to ask yourself a simple question – why do politicians tell you the world has never done better when anxiety and stress are on the rise? Why are people told everything is alright when they are clearly not as happy as previous generations?

Statistics claim people get richer and richer, but in reality, people face more and more challenges. They struggle more and more to survive. Authors try to explore the growing anger among the general population. They also underline the fact that it could be helpful and useful at times, yet terribly wrong in many situations too – especially if it becomes radical. At the same time, they propose a bunch of ideas and solutions to remove confusion in terms of economics and finances. Simply put, this book is ideal for everyone, regardless of their location and financial status.

What’s Wrong With Economics, by Robert Jacob Alexander Skidelsky

Book on economics

The reputable author aims to find answers to a few common questions. He aims to understand how scientific certainty has led to uncertainty in finances. Societies end up making decisions on economic models that are currently outdated. There are, of course, some circumstances and causes that led to such issues.

The current situation is the obvious result of an outdated system. Students learn about economics in universities, but the principles are old and have nothing to do with today's society. The author underlines the necessity of further education for better decision and he agrees that an economist should also be a statesman, mathematician, philosopher and historian.

Healthcare From The Trenches, by Alejandro Badia

Book on public healthcare

The U.S. healthcare system is in crisis. People in the United State are facing serious problems, and not just because of COVID-19, the problem is much deeper. The constantly rising healthcare costs and the ineffective medical care leads to constant discontent. The COVID-19 crisis amplified the whole situation. Despite all the political efforts and media coverage the situation isn't changed since the Obamacare.

This book is written from a doctor’s view. Dr. Alejandro Badia, didn’t want to write this book but felt he had to because of the incredible problems he sees every day in getting the patient the care they need. As an doctor, his treatment plans are constantly hindered by the system which has a no insight of the problem that patients are facing. It became impossible for the author to continue to practice without calling out what is happening.

Capital in the Twenty-First Century, by Thomas Piketty

Book on inequality

In this long work Thomas Piketty systematically introduces the main factors that drove the economy to the big problem of capitalism: income inequality.

The main driver of inequality is again threatening to generate extreme dissatisfaction among people and weakens democratic values. The author’s findings in this ambitious, original book will transform debate and set the agenda for the next generation of thought about poverty and inequality.

Windfall, by Meghan L. O'Sullivan

Book on energy policy and climate change issues

Energy politics is closely connected to sustainable economics and climate crisis. Windfall describes how new energy realities have deeply affected the world of international relations. New technologies led to destroy the oil market. This is more then just about oil prices, it changed the structure of markets and altered the way many nations handle power.

With bold and provocative analysis, Daniel Yergin and coauthor Joseph Stanislaw offer an eye-opening new vision of global energy. Gone is the constant fear of running out; replaced by a world awash in fossil fuels. They assert that the new energy abundance—due to oil and gas resources once deemed too expensive—is transforming the geo-political order and is boosting American power.

Chaos Monkeys, by Antonio García Martínez

Book on social interactions and the impact of technology on our lives

Internet economy is skyrocketing and online giants like Google or Facebook are living in another world. A world where money and shareholders are first.

García Martínez joined Facebook’s nascent advertising team years ago. Forced out in the aftermath of an internal product war over the future of the company’s monetization strategy. The author on one day landed at another giant Twitter. In Chaos Monkeys, this gleeful contrarian unravels the chaotic evolution of social media and online marketing and reveals how it is destroying our lives and shaping our future.

If you are familiar with the Netflix documentary The Social Dilemma, this book will give you valuable further knowledge about this topic.

We Want to Do More Than Survive, by Bettina L. Love

Book on higher education and social justice

The author argues that the US educational system is maintained by and profits from the suffering of children of color. This isn't acceptable real reform would be necessary.

Teachers, parents, and community leaders must approach education with the vision and urgency of an reformist. The book introduces an alternative to traditional modes of educational reform and expands our ideas of civic engagement and intersectional justice.

The contents of this book were so clear and comprehensible that educators need to read it.

Final Thoughts on some Outstanding Books on Social Issues

As a short final conclusion, the list could have gone a bit further, but these are some of the books on social issues. Some of them are educative, while others will raise some question marks and challenge your beliefs a little – anyhow, each of them will open your eyes and add to your thinking.

Women contribution to Science, Technology, Politics, and Humanity – Women Liberation Movements improving Women Rights

Throughout History, women have been asking for their rights. And men think they are asking for too much. Imagine if women lost hope and started thinking of Revenge?

History has taught us that women have a great level of patience.

This book may not change today’s Ugly Facts, but it will show a very small portion of Females’ Great Contributions to Humanity. Hoping that someday, somewhere, somehow, Females are rewarded and respected for their great contributions to Humanity.

The post How to Destroy America in Three Easy Steps by Ben Shapiro appeared first on Joelbooks.

]]>

A growing number of Americans want to tear down what it’s taken us 250 years to build—and they’ll start by canceling our shared history, ideals, and culture.

Traditional areas of civic agreement are vanishing. We can’t agree on what makes America special. We can’t even agree that America is special. We’re coming to the point that we can’t even agree what the word America itself means. “Disintegrationists” say we’re stronger together, but their assault on America’s history, philosophy, and culture will only tear us apart.

Who are the disintegrationists? From Howard Zinn’s A People’s History of the United States to the New York Times’ 1619 project, many modern analyses view American history through the lens of competing oppressions, a racist and corrupt experiment from the very beginning. They see American philosophy as a lie – beautiful words pasted over a thoroughly rotted system. They see America’s culture of rights as a façade that merely reinforces traditional hierarchies of power, instead of being the only culture that guarantees freedom for individuals.

How to Destroy America in Three Easy Steps shows that to be a cohesive nation we have to uphold foundational truths about ourselves, our history, and reality itself—to be unionists instead of disintegrationists. Shapiro offers a vital warning that if we don’t recover these shared truths, our future—our union—as a great country is threatened with destruction.
