If you want peace, prepare for war

an essay on just war

&lt;p&gt;This book provides a critical discussion of the way in which religion influences: criminal and antisocial behaviour, punishment and the law, intergroup conflict and peace-making, and the rehabilitation of offenders. The authors argue that in order to understand how religion is related to each of these domains it is essential to recognise the evolutionary origins of religion as well as how genetic and cultural evolutionary processes have shaped its essential characteristics. Durrant and Poppelwell posit that the capacity of religion to bind individuals into socially cohesive ‘moral communities’ can help us to understand its complex relationship with cooperation, crime, punishment, inter-group conflict and forgiveness. An original and innovative study, this book will be of special interest to criminologists and other social scientists interested in the role of religion in crime, punishment, intergroup conflict and law. &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Religion, Crime and Punishment

*WINNER OF THE 2021 INTERNATIONAL BOOKER PRIZE* *ONE OF PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA'S FAVORITE BOOKS OF 2021* Winner of the Los Angeles Times Book Prize for fiction Shortlisted for the 2022 DUBLIN Literary Award "Astonishingly good." -Lily Meyer, NPR "So incantatory and visceral I don't think I'll ever forget it." -Ali Smith, The Guardian | Best Books of 2020 One of The Wall Street Journal's 11 best books of the fall | One of The A.V. Club's fifteen best books of 2020 |A Sunday Times best book of the year Selected by students across France to win the Prix Goncourt des Lycéens, David Diop's English-language, historical fiction debut At Night All Blood is Black is a "powerful, hypnotic, and dark novel" (Livres Hebdo) of terror and transformation in the trenches of the First World War. Alfa Ndiaye is a Senegalese man who, never before having left his village, finds himself fighting as a so-called "Chocolat" soldier with the French army during World War I. When his friend Mademba Diop, in the same regiment, is seriously injured in battle, Diop begs Alfa to kill him and spare him the pain of a long and agonizing death in No Man's Land. Unable to commit this mercy killing, madness creeps into Alfa's mind as he comes to see this refusal as a cruel moment of cowardice. Anxious to avenge the death of his friend and find forgiveness for himself, he begins a macabre ritual: every night he sneaks across enemy lines to find and murder a blue-eyed German soldier, and every night he returns to base, unharmed, with the German's severed hand. At first his comrades look at Alfa's deeds with admiration, but soon rumors begin to circulate that this super soldier isn't a hero, but a sorcerer, a soul-eater. Plans are hatched to get Alfa away from the front, and to separate him from his growing collection of hands, but how does one reason with a demon, and how far will Alfa go to make amends to his dead friend? Peppered with bullets and black magic, this remarkable novel fills in a forgotten chapter in the history of World War I. Blending oral storytelling traditions with the gritty, day-to-day, journalistic horror of life in the trenches, David Diop's At Night All Blood is Black is a dazzling tale of a man's descent into madness.

Weltwirtschaft und Internationale Zusammenarbeit

&lt;p&gt;Expertinnen und Experten aus Europa, Lateinamerika und den USA setzen sich kritisch mit  der Frage auseinander, wie sich die Staaten Lateinamerikas in der sich verändernden internationalen Ordnung außenpolitisch positionieren. Diese Frage stellt sich mit aktueller Dringlichkeit im Kontext des russischen Kriegs gegen die Ukraine, aber auch vor dem Hintergrund des sich verschärfenden globalen Systemwettbewerbs der Großmächte USA und China. Während Peking sein Engagement in Lateinamerika stark ausgebaut hat, ist der Einfluss der USA und Europas in der Region rückläufig. Lateinamerika will sich zum eigenen Vorteil alle Optionen offenhalten, ein gemeinsames Auftreten auf der internationalen Bühne ist jedoch bislang nicht erkennbar.  &lt;b&gt;Mit Beiträgen von&lt;/b&gt;Peter Birle | Adriana Boersner Herrera | Juan Pablo Cardenal | Armando Chaguaceda | Benjamin Creutzfeldt | Felix Malte Dorn | Adam Isacson | Jochen Kleinschmidt | Miguel Angel Latouche | Günther Maihold | Daniela Molano | Wolfgang Muno | Christian Pfeiffer | Christian E.

Kölner Schriften zum Friedenssicherungsrecht


        &lt;p&gt;Art. 2 (4) der Satzung der Vereinten Nationen verbietet es Mitgliedstaaten, Gewalt „in ihren internationalen Beziehungen“ anzuwenden. Während die Ansicht weit verbreitet ist, dass hiermit lediglich die „Zwischenstaatlichkeit“ der Gewalt gemeint ist, zeigt eine ausführliche textuelle Auslegung der Norm, dass durch das Merkmal tatsächlich alle staatlichen Gewaltanwendungen, die nicht genuin „intern“ sind, vom Anwendungsbereich umfasst sein könnten. Während die Praxis in dieser Hinsicht nicht ebenso eindeutig ist, zeichnet eine eingehende Analyse verschiedener Gewaltanwendungsszenarien ein überraschend nuanciertes Bild, das das volle Potenzial dieses oft übersehenen Merkmals aufzeigt.&lt;/p&gt;

On Military Intervention in the Twenty-First Century

Policing Wars

The Wiley Finance Series

&lt;p&gt;The world is upside down.  The emerging market countries are more important than many investors realise.  They have been catching up with the West over the past few decades.  Greater market freedom has spread since the end of the Cold War, and with it institutional changes which have further assisted emerging economies in becoming more productive, flexible, and resilient.  The Western financial crisis from 2008 has quickened the pace of the relative rise of emerging markets - their relative economic power, and with it political power, but also their financial power as savers, investors and creditors.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;Emerging Markets in an Upside Down World - Challenging Perceptions in Asset Allocation and Investment&lt;/i&gt; argues that finance theory has misunderstood risk and that this has led to poor investment decisions; and that emerging markets constitute a good example of why traditional finance theory is faulty. The book accurately describes the complex and changing global environment currently facing the investor and asset allocator. It raises many questions often bypassed because of the use of simplifying assumptions and models. The narrative builds towards a checklist of issues and questions for the asset allocator and investor and then to a discussion of a variety of regulatory and policy issues.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Aimed at institutional and retail investors as well as economics, finance, business and international relations students, &lt;i&gt;Emerging Markets in an Upside Down World&lt;/i&gt; covers many complex ideas, but is written to be accessible to the non-expert.&lt;/p&gt;

Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights

Princeton Legacy Library

Modern France is often referred to as the "sick man of Europe." With attention focused on the all-pervasive role of the state, Mr. Baum makes a revealing diagnosis. He provides a full view into the structure and performance of the French economy, dealing first with government efforts to solve certain general problems: reconstruction of the economic system, controlling cycles of inflation and recession, and closing the large gap in the balance of payments. After discussing the state's traditional role of public financier and its less orthodox role as entrepreneur in the large sector of the economy now under public ownership, he shows how the state acts as a regulator of private enterprise in industry and agriculture. Mr. Baum's extensive use of original French source material and discussions with French officials in business and government make this book a unique contribution to understanding modern France.

Originally published in 1958.
