Dialogues on Gun Control
English | 2023 | ISBN: 0367615304 | 142 Pages | PDF (True) | 3 MB
What happens when two intelligent American college students with different attitudes about guns launch into a careful exploration of the ethics of gun policy? What might a European exchange student add to the mix? All three characters in this book are fictional, the creation of author David DeGrazia’s imagination. But their vigorous, respectful conversations over six meetings―well-informed by the latest empirical data and the best available philosophical arguments―shed needed light on the reality of guns in the U.S. today.

Critical Dialogues of Urban Governance, Development and Activism: London and Toronto By Susannah Bruce; Nicola Livingstone; Loren March; Susan Moore
2021 | 332 Pages | ISBN: 1787356817 | PDF | 29 MB
Cities have been some of the most visible manifestations of the evolution of globalization and population expansion, and global cities are at the cutting edge of such changes. Critical Dialogues of Urban Governance, Development and Activism examines changes in governance, property development, urban politics, and community activism in two key global cities: London and Toronto. By taking these two cities as empirical cases, the book engages in constructive dialogues about the forms, governmental mechanisms and practices, and policy and community-based responses to the concerns facing modern urban centers. Through three central issues, governance, real estate and housing, and community activism and engagement, the authors seek to understand London and Toronto from a nuanced perspective, promoting critical reflection on the experiences and evaluative critiques of each urban context, providing insight into each city’s trajectory and engaging critically with wider phenomena and influences on the urban governance challenges in cities beyond.

Jutta Berta Sperber, "Anthropological Aspects in the Christian-muslim Dialogues of the Vatican "
English | ISBN: 3110589672 | 2019 | 550 pages | EPUB, PDF | 3 MB + 4 MB
This detailed study by Jutta Sperber shows how the magisterium of the Roman-Catholic Church, the Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue and various parts of the Muslim world from Saudi Arabia to Iran have been engaged in Christian-Muslim dialogues. The mainly anthropological topics range from tolerance and human dignity, the position of women and children, media and education, to mission, resources and nationalism. They paint an interesting picture of the position of Man before God and the world in both Christianity and Islam.
