Perfect Flower
Are you nervous yet? Is it possible that nuclear weapons will be used in Eastern Europe? Will North Korea launch attacks? Is China ready to invade Taiwan? Is war on the horizon between Iran and Israel? How safe are your finances? Everything is starting to get so expensive. The US government is printing so much money to fund the Ukraine War, the pandemic, and green energy technologies. Economists are predicting millions will lose their jobs to artificial intelligence. This is the world the globalists have left at our doorstep. The agenda of Klaus Schwab of the World Economic Forum has brought us to the brink of nuclear war and unstable fiat currencies. A change is needed. Perfect Flower is a ...

Policy Making in an Independent Judiciary
How do the justices of a nation’s highest court arrive at their decisions? In the context of the US Supreme Court, the answer to this question is well established: justices seek to enshrine policy preferences in their decisions, but they do so in a manner consistent with ‘the law’ and in recognition that they are members of an institution with defined expectations and constraints. In other words, a justice’s behaviour is a function of motives, means, and opportunities. Using Norway as a case study, this book shows that these forces are not peculiar to the decisional behaviour of American justices. Employing a modified attitudinal model, Grendstad, Shaffer and Waltenburg establish that the preferences of Norway’s justices are related to their decisions. Consequently, the authors show how an understanding of judicial behaviour developed and most fully tested in the American judicial system is transportable to the courts of other countries.

The Journey of Liu Xiaobo
As a fearless poet and prolific essayist and critic, Liu Xiaobo became one of the most important dissident thinkers in the People’s Republic of China. His nonviolent activism steered the nation’s prodemocracy currents from Tiananmen Square to support for Tibet and beyond. Liu undertook perhaps his bravest act when he helped draft and gather support for Charter 08, a democratic vision for China that included free elections and the end of the Communist Party’s monopoly on power. While imprisoned for “inciting subversion of state power,” Liu won the 2010 Nobel Peace Prize. He was granted medical parole just weeks before dying of cancer in 2017. The Journey of Liu Xiaobo draws together...
No Echo

The Sense of Thirst
The deep link between water and the right to health is one of the themes dealt with in denouncing the urgent social and geopolitical issues inherent in the most essential of human resources. In an era marked by the pandemic, by environmental disasters linked to climate change, by the phenomenon of Earth Overshoot Day, water is "analysed" as an emblem of the planet's natural balance that human beings cannot destroy without annihilating themselves. The denunciation of issues that cannot be postponed, such as the ever less obvious right of access to drinking water, or drought, the cause of conflicts and migratory flows, is accompanied by an analysis of the spiritual, cultural and artistic dimension with which man has looked to the natural element, the source of life par excellence. The cry of the scientists, in fact, is waiting to be re-launched by a powerful leap of ethical awareness. Lest we forget that, as the philosopher-anthropologist Loren Eiseley said, “If there is any magic on this planet, it is contained in the water”.
