The struggles of international students at Cambridge University and in the context of the United Kingdom come alive for the reader. There are many important documents and articles included in the book that makes this a historical document in its own right. Christian Kim's book points out the inadequacies of Cambridge University to deal with the influx of international students and their needs. Furthermore, this book exposes the underhanded policies of the British New Labour government. It would not be a surprise if this book becomes an important impetus for change in the United Kingdom. It seems that Christian Kim desires nothing more than positive change for the benefit of international students. This book is more than a recounting of the valiant struggles of international students, particularly in light of the onerous $500 Visa Renewal Fee that the British New Labour government struck on international students while they were away for the summer vacation. This book is a heart-warming account of the positivity of the human spirit to take on a big unfair power even when the odds are stacked against them. There are a lot of pictures in the book that make events come alive.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51630395130129,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51630396342545,"sku":"NGR9781596890435","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52331558174993,"sku":"NLS9781596890435","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1596890436.jpg?v=1751309575"},{"product_id":"korean-american-experience-in-the-united-states-book-christian-kim-9781596890084","title":"Korean-American Experience in the United States","description":"A very exciting book on Koreans in the United States  This book is very helpful for understanding the nature and the history of the Korean community in the USA. There are over one million Korean-Americans in the USA. Despite the small number and a short immigration history, Korean-Americans have been able to contribute to America in important ways. Korean-American students generally comprise the biggest block of ethnic minorities in Ivy League universities and other leading research universities. The current Yale University Law School Dean is Korean-American. A Korean-American has been the leader of the biggest Presbyterian denomination in the USA. Korean-Americans can be found all over the USA in every profession, and they have been very successful. And, perhaps, the Korean-American community is the most evangelical Christian ethnic community in America. In fact, many InterVarsity Christian Fellowship and Campus Crusade for Christ leaders in America's major universities are Korean-Americans. How is it that Korean-Americans came to play such an important role in the American society, particularly in the area of religion? This is a very good book to understand what makes the Korean-Americans tick. Particularly insightful are the ways in which Christian Kim, the author, captures general patterns for the Korean-Americans and their successes. This is by far the best introductory book on Korean-Americans in the market and will be very useful for use in classroom settings, both on the high school and college levels, in courses dealing with ethnic studies and the Asian experience in American history and society.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52130042872081,"sku":"NLS9781596890084","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781596890084.jpg?v=1757501548"},{"product_id":"korean-american-experience-in-the-united-states-book-christian-kim-9781596890091","title":"Korean-American Experience in the United States","description":"A very exciting book on Koreans in the United States  This book is very helpful for understanding the nature and the history of the Korean community in the USA.

Reflections On Color, Justice, And Due Process","description":"Christian Kim is a Ph.D. candidate in Hebrew, Jewish, and Early Christian Studies at Cambridge University, and he has taught undergraduates at UCLA and Brown University. Christian Kim has delivered highly advanced academic papers at leading academic conferences around the world, like the British New Testament Conference and the Society of Biblical Literature Annual Meeting. Christian Kim is frequently invited to give lectures on Jewish Studies and Early Christianity by academic institutions around the world. Most recently Christian Kim was invited by Moscow Seminary to lecture to a group of masters' degree students in theology. Christian Kim has many prestigious academic awards, such as the Lady Davis Fellowship and the Raoul Wallenberg Scholarship. Christian Kim is a student of color; Christian Kim is an Asian-American. On November 11, 2004, security guards stormed into the Cambridge University Law Faculty Library and pushed Christian Kim out in an act of official coercion. There was no justifiable cause. Due process was bypassed. A serious act of injustice was carried out along with much humiliation. In this book, Christian Kim shares his thoughts on the experience, particularly in light of the historical struggles of the people of color. Christian Kim discusses the implications of such acts of official coercion for individual rights and institutional discrimination. Why is the precedent of official coercion harmful for everyone concerned? What will be the domino effect? How is official coercion tied to colonialism, slavery, and apartheid? Christian Kim is insightful and makes many points that are needed in the diversity of the global community in the 21st Century. This book is an indispensable guide for all who are serious about human rights, justice, and civil rights. This book shows that the injustice that leaders such as Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. struggled against still exists today. This book will open the readers' eyes to how injustice and violation of human rights can creep into even the most respected of institutions in the world.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52134312870161,"sku":"NLS9781596890107","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781596890107.jpg?v=1757541202"},{"product_id":"cambridge-university-student-union-international-2003-2004-book-christian-kim-9781596890442","title":"Cambridge University Student Union International 2003-2004","description":"This new book (CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY STUDENT UNION INTERNATIONAL 2003-2004: INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS' STRUGLE FOR REPRESENTATION IN THE UNITED KINGDOM) by Christian Kim is very interesting.

At the helm of this endeavor is Christian Kim, who was the President of Cambridge University Korean Society from 2002 to 2003. Christian Kim, a Ph.D. candidate in Hebrew, Jewish, and Early Christian Studies, sets out major objectives to achieve Korean empowerment. Firstly, Christian Kim seeks to disseminate Korean culture and help non-Koreans understand the Korean experience. Thus, Kim invites one of the major literary figures from South Korea to discuss Korean literature. Kim also invited the Ambassador of South Korea, who is now the primary expert on North Korea for the South Korean government, for a special lecture, sponsored together with the Centre for International Studies of Cambridge University. Besides his efforts to help others to better understand Koreans, Christian Kim spearheaded many firsts for Koreans in Cambridge University. Kim organized the first ever Cambridge University Korean Society Formal Hall at Jesus College, Cambridge. This is a historic event in the history of Cambridge University and the history of the Korean people in the United Kingdom. Furthermore, Christian Kim organized the first ever all-Chinese get together. This is a historic event for the Chinese people of Cambridge University and an important step in the history of China. Another critically important first was the joint program between Cambridge University Korean Society and the Interdisciplinary Japanese Forum. It is the first time in that a major Korean Society in higher education in the European Union sponsored a joint program with the Japanese society at the university. It has historic ramifications. This book contains much important documentation for the study of British history, the history of the Korean people, the history of Chinese people, the history of Japanese people, and the history of higher education. This is a book that serious historians cannot go without. As it is written in a very readable way, this book will be of interest to everyone who has any interest in British history, Cambridge University, Asian history, and sociology.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52333276004625,"sku":"NLS9781596890589","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781596890589.jpg?v=1758154242"},{"product_id":"res-gestae-christiani-book-christian-kim-9781596890596","title":"Res Gestae Christiani","description":"Res Gestae Christiani: My Time as the President of the Cambridge University Korean Society 2002-2003 by Christian Kim is a heart-warming real-life account of the struggle of Korean students at Cambridge University to empower themselves against all odds.

This book is for you  CHRISTIAN BODY POLITIC is a book that tackles difficult questions regarding the Christian perspective on the relationship between Church and State. Leading Christian thinkers and activists discuss such questions as: Did Jesus support the Death Penalty? What role should the Church play in government? What does the Bible teach about governing authority's legitimacy? Is democracy the only Bible-approved government? Professor Stephen Joel Garver has been teaching philosophy courses to students at La Salle University in Philadelphia, PA, for a long time, and Prof. Garver shares insightful thoughts on the concept of Jesus as King. What does it mean for our modern society? Professor Cliff Bates, who is teaching political science at the University of Warsaw in POLAND, shares his insights on the concept of the State and Christian responses to it. Prof. Bates discusses the issue of the Holocaust as well. Rev. David Kim, who is a major leader with an evangelical student campus movement, shares his wisdom on the idea of the City of God. If Christians are citizens of the City of God in Heaven, how does that identity relate to Christians' life on earth. Is there a relationship? Does it matter? Rev. Lee Irons, who hosts a Christian think-tank, The Upper Register, gives an informative account of the the current evangelical-reformed discussion on the relationship between Church and State and offers some of his own ideas. The editor of the volume, Christian Kim, presents cogent arguments about Jesus Christ's attitudes about the Death Penalty.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52402610962705,"sku":"NLS9780972386449","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780972386449.jpg?v=1758758260"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-christian-kim.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
