Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Triangulating Peace Betsy smiled at her mother's little spurt of temper and quickly curbed the smile. She was not only a dutiful daughter, but had an uncommon sense of humor, although in demeanor and look she strongly resembled her grave and handsome father, who had suf fered himself to be called a rebel and had gloried in being called a martyr. While Betsy trod serenely and calmly through life, its big things and its small, she loved her spicy mother and rather enjoyed the latter's tart tongue and temper, though many a time she had fronted both down with her quiet eyes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ensign of Peace Many eminent Philosophers and Divines have laboured with unwearied assiduity for the general good of Mankind, and left behind them a multiplicity of excellent rules, in order to instruct and lead men in the paths of virtue and temperance. I do not pretend to any great degree of knowledge in Philosophy, Divinity, or Physic; yet am certain, that I have hit upon a Medicine which will reduce the Flesh (in a great measure) to the Will of the Spirit, and induce men to walk with pleasure through life, in a more than ordinary good irate of bodily health. A great deal has been said in several pompous advertisements respecting the cure of diseases, though few, I believe, have answered the end proposed. 'Tis far from my design to impose upon the public; and, I hope, such as make a sufficient trial of the Medicine will have no reason to complain of its effects.

Download or read book The Peace Movement of America Classic Reprint written by Julius Moritzen and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Peace Movement of America All great movements that mean to benefit the race require disinterested leadership and popular support. The peace movement is no exception. In the past, men and women with noble purpose have worked inspiringly to the end that warfare may be abolished. In America in the United States, in Canada, and the Latin-American republics - there never was a time when international harmony appeared to signify more to the welfare of the world than it does to-day. In Europe and in the Far East, the peace movement is advancing more slowly, yet no less irresistibly than in the western hemisphere. A book dealing with the peace movement in America must of necessity be somewhat fragmentary. Where so many swiftly changing factors enter into the international scheme for amity, not too much can be expected from the marshalling of data considerable of which is so recent as to preclude it from being historic. At the same time, the very freshness of the American peace movement, its spontaneity - with ranks augmented and strengthened leadership - would seem to call for consideration.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Way of Unity and Peace The way of Unity and Peace is the subject of most anxious searching by every lover of our Country in the present crisis. The purpose of this paper is to remind men that there is such a way and to indicate the access to it. Those who have long been convinced of the necessity of discovering some means of relieving the congestion of Parliament and who have made some survey of. The ground, are convinced that they discern such a way in a general scheme of devolution. The writers of this paper claim no priority of discovery. Far from it; they recognise the claims of many other pioneers and explorers in this region, and, in particular, they call to mind with gratitude the approval of the principle of devolu tion or Home Rule all round which, qualified though it be, has been expressed by the Prime Minister himself, by Sir Edward Carson, Mr. Austen Chamberlain and others. What the writers desire to do is to recall men's minds from the pursuit of unsatisfactory expedients, and the treading of paths that admittedly lead nowhere, or else to a wrong destina tion, and to redirect them into what the writers believe to be in very truth the way of Unity and Peace.

This book was released on 2018-01-25 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sole Condition of Permanent Peace There is likewise no evident reason to anticipate that states so situated that one can war on another, with hope of advantage in either direction, will ever abstain through great periods of time from doing so. A part of the causes of past wars are certainly dis appearing; but the interests of nations will be able to conflict as long as the nations survive, and it is hard to imagine any complete scheme by which conflicting interests of independent and coordinate states can be kept from occasionally being settled by the test of war.

Download or read book Rethinking the Liberal Peace written by Shahrbanou Tadjbakhsh and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2011-03-08 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a critical analysis of the liberal peace project and offers possible alternatives and models. In the past decade, the model used for reconstructing societies after conflicts has been based on liberal assumptions about the pacifiying effects of 'open markets' and 'open societies'. Yet, despite the vast resources invested in helping establish the precepts of this liberal peace, outcomes have left much to be desired. The book argues that failures in the liberal peace project are not only due to efficiency problems related to its adaptation in adverse local environments, but mostly due to problems of legitimacy of turning an ideal into a doctrine for action. The aim of the book is to scrutinize assumptions about the value of democratization and marketization and realities on the ground by combining theoretical discussions with empirical evidence from key post-conflict settings such as Iraq and Afghanistan. These show the disparities that exist between the ideals and the reality of the liberal peace project, as seen by external peacebuilders and domestic actors. The book then proposes various alternatives and modifications to better accommodate local perspectives, values and agency in attempts to forge a new consensus. This book will be of great interest to students of peacebuilding/peacekeeping, statebuilding, war and conflict studies, international security and IR.

Download or read book The Waning of Major War written by Raimo Vayrynen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-31 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a systematic effort by leading international scholars to map the trends in major-power warfare and explore whether it is waxing or waning. The main point of departure is that major-power war as a historical institution is in decline. This does not mean, though, that wars between states are in general disappearing. While there is some convergence in the conclusions by individual authors, they are by no means unanimous about the trend. The articles explore different causes and correlates of the declining trend in major-power warfare, including the impact of the international structure, nuclear weapons, international law, multilateral institutions, sovereignty and value changes.

Download or read book Bowling Alone Revised and Updated written by Robert D. Putnam and published by Simon & Schuster. This book was released on 2020-10-13 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Updated to include a new chapter about the influence of social media and the Internet—the 20th anniversary edition of Bowling Alone remains a seminal work of social analysis, and its examination of what happened to our sense of community remains more relevant than ever in today’s fractured America. Twenty years, ago, Robert D. Putnam made a seemingly simple observation: once we bowled in leagues, usually after work; but no longer. This seemingly small phenomenon symbolized a significant social change that became the basis of the acclaimed bestseller, Bowling Alone, which The Washington Post called “a very important book” and Putnam, “the de Tocqueville of our generation.” Bowling Alone surveyed in detail Americans’ changing behavior over the decades, showing how we had become increasingly disconnected from family, friends, neighbors, and social structures, whether it’s with the PTA, church, clubs, political parties, or bowling leagues. In the revised edition of his classic work, Putnam shows how our shrinking access to the “social capital” that is the reward of communal activity and community sharing still poses a serious threat to our civic and personal health, and how these consequences have a new resonance for our divided country today. He includes critical new material on the pervasive influence of social media and the internet, which has introduced previously unthinkable opportunities for social connection—as well as unprecedented levels of alienation and isolation. At the time of its publication, Putnam’s then-groundbreaking work showed how social bonds are the most powerful predictor of life satisfaction, and how the loss of social capital is felt in critical ways, acting as a strong predictor of crime rates and other measures of neighborhood quality of life, and affecting our health in other ways. While the ways in which we connect, or become disconnected, have changed over the decades, his central argument remains as powerful and urgent as ever: mending our frayed social capital is key to preserving the very fabric of our society.
