What would you do if you think that’s wrong? How would you try to effect c hange? Where would you start? What if you then realize that you’re a nobod y\, but still want to do it? \n\nThis talk is about how to make something of your idea\, with scant resources\, amidst the legal confusion that risk s strangling a new democracy such as Indonesia. It explores the possibilit y of working against local laws\, and obtaining badly needed support from the most unlikely allies. And it explores how and why ordinary people pers ist in seeking a better life in an imperfect world.\n\nThe speaker\n\nPran oto Iskandar is Founding Director of The Institute for Migrant Rights and Editor of the Institute’s scholarly publication program for the advancemen t of international and comparative legal studies. Currently\, he is intere sted in developing a variety of academically rigorous and viable human rig hts driven proposals for law reform in the area of immigration and constit utional laws in the midst of the domestic entrenchment of international an d foreign laws in non-liberal polities.\n DTSTART:20151130T180000Z DTEND:20151130T193000Z LOCATION:OCDH 16\, Chancellor Day Hall\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 1W9\, 364 4 rue Peel SUMMARY:Engaging Moral Business amidst Uncertainties: Fostering Democracy i n the New Indonesia URL:/channels/event/engaging-moral-business-amidst-unc ertainties-fostering-democracy-new-indonesia-256394 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
