    Letters from a Stoic

    Epistulae Morales Ad Lucilium

    A philosophy that saw self-possession as the key to an existence lived "in accordance with nature", Stoicism called for restraint of animal instincts and severing of emotional ties. Seneca's contribution to a seemingly unsympathetic creed was to transform it into an inspiring declaration of the dignity of the individual mind.

    Oost-West

    In 1980 ontmoet Marius, een politiek bewuste student aan de universiteit van Suriname, op een universiteitsfeest Chandra, studente aan de kweekschool. Ze voelen zich meteen tot elkaar aangetrokken. De Afro-Surinaamse Marius is zonder vader opgegroeid in Paramaribo, in omgevingen waarin meerdere culturen vertegenwoordigd zijn. Chandra, wier ouders uit het rijstdistrict Nickerie komen, is opgegroeid in een tamelijk traditioneel Hindoestaans milieu, waarin haar omgang met een Afro-Surinaamse jongen op verzet stuit. De verschillen in culturele achtergronden tussen hen en de politieke ontwikkelingen in het land blijken van grote invloed op het verdere verloop van hun relatie.

  12. Biocultural Rights and Biocultural Ethics

    Biocultural Rights and Biocultural Ethics

    The case of the Atrato River, Colombia

    In 2016, Colombia introduced the concept of biocultural rights into its Constitution; an unprecedented legal development that has since shaped environmental and human rights discourse both nationally and internationally. An important moment in this shift was the recognition of the Atrato River as a subject of rights, establishing a legal mechanism to protect not only the ecosystem itself but also the Afro-Colombian communities whose cultural and spiritual identities are deeply intertwined with the river. This book explores the challenges of implementing biocultural rights in countries with weak governance structures. Legal recognition alone proves insufficient in contexts where state control is fragmented and power is often exercised by corporations, armed groups, and illicit networks. Addressing biocultural diversity requires engaging with cultural dimensions such as identity, worldviews, philosophical assumptions, and moral frameworks. Through an in-depth analysis of the Atrato River case, the 3Hs framework of biocultural ethics is applied to interconnect historical, biophysical, cultural, and political dimensions. This approach reveals the potential of biocultural rights to foster more equitable and sustainable forms of coexistence between human and other-than-human communities. Offering a critical perspective on legal innovation in fragile states, this book provides valuable insights for advancing biocultural conservation and transitioning toward governance models that support the flourishing of biocultural diversity.
