Peace by Piece by Sandra Kellogg Rath Pdf

"As I hung up the phone, the enormity of what had just been given to me seemed to smother the life inside of me..I was a Holocaust survivor." Having grown up in post-WWII Poland, Peter Loth knew very little about his past. As an adult, even the few details Peter thought he understood about his life began to unravel. With the help of the American Red Cross, Peter discovered a piece of his past that would change everything - he had been born in Stutthof Concentration Camp. In this gripping memoir, Peter embarks on a painful journey back to his childhood full of abuse, loneliness, and hatred. As Peter wrestles with his anger and bitterness standing in the remains of his birthplace almost 60 years later, God breaks in. Peter learns how to give and receive forgiveness, which transforms his life and brings him the peace he has been searching for. Peter Loth is an international speaker who carries a message of reconciliation between nations, cultures, families, and individuals. He and his wife live in Kansas City. Sandra Kellogg Rath received her Bachelor's Degree in Speech Communication and her Master's Degree in Communication and Rhetorical Studies at Syracuse University. She is currently earning her Doctoral Degree in Communication at Arizona State University.

The Perils of Peace by Thomas Fleming Pdf

On October 19, 1781, Great Britain's best army surrendered to General George Washington at Yorktown. But the future of the 13 former colonies was far from clear. A 13,000 man British army still occupied New York City, and another 13,000 regulars and armed loyalists were scattered from Canada to Savannah, Georgia. Meanwhile, Congress had declined to a mere 24 members, and the national treasury was empty. The American army had not been paid for years and was on the brink of mutiny. In Europe, America's only ally, France, teetered on the verge of bankruptcy and was soon reeling from a disastrous naval defeat in the Caribbean. A stubborn George III dismissed Yorktown as a minor defeat and refused to yield an acre of "my dominions" in America. In Paris, Ambassador Benjamin Franklin confronted violent hostility to France among his fellow members of the American peace delegation. In his riveting new book, Thomas Fleming moves elegantly between the key players in this drama and shows that the outcome we take for granted was far from certain. Not without anguish, General Washington resisted the urgings of many officers to seize power and held the angry army together until peace and independence arrived. With fresh research and masterful storytelling, Fleming breathes new life into this tumultuous but little known period in America's history.

Survival Migration by Alexander Betts Pdf

International treaties, conventions, and organizations to protect refugees were established in the aftermath of World War II to protect people escaping targeted persecution by their own governments. However, the nature of cross-border displacement has transformed dramatically since then. Such threats as environmental change, food insecurity, and generalized violence force massive numbers of people to flee states that are unable or unwilling to ensure their basic rights, as do conditions in failed and fragile states that make possible human rights deprivations. Because these reasons do not meet the legal understanding of persecution, the victims of these circumstances are not usually recognized as "refugees," preventing current institutions from ensuring their protection.In this book, Alexander Betts develops the concept of "survival migration" to highlight the crisis in which these people find themselves. Examining flight from three of the most fragile states in Africa—Zimbabwe, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and Somalia—Betts explains variation in institutional responses across the neighboring host states. There is massive inconsistency. Some survival migrants are offered asylum as refugees; others are rounded up, detained, and deported, often in brutal conditions. The inadequacies of the current refugee regime are a disaster for human rights and gravely threaten international security. In Survival Migration, Betts outlines these failings, illustrates the enormous human suffering that results, and argues strongly for an expansion of protected categories.

Peaceful Revolution by Paul K. Chappell Pdf

If you think world peace is a naive concept, Paul K. Chappell’s very existence will give you pause. It’s not enough to say that Chappell – a West Point graduate and Iraq War veteran – is a soldier turned peace leader. Experiencing a traumatic upbringing and growing up mixed race in Alabama, he’s a young man forged by violence, rage, and racism into a living weapon for peace. By unlocking the mysteries of human nature, he shows how the muscles of hope, empathy, appreciation, conscience, reason, discipline, and curiosity give us the power to end the wars between countries, our ongoing war with nature, and the war in our hearts.

...and Peace for All: The Pledge of Survival by Joseph Jr Covino Pdf

This long-lost and long-awaited companion to the anti-war book preceding it to print decades before, ...And Peace For All: The Pledge of Survival is a book of contemporary political philosophy, calling on all peoples of the world to collectively unite and revolt for peace in a modern-day revolution in peace-minded thought and action, the ultimate aim being to avert that ultimate war to end all wars: thermonuclear war-the worldwide Will to Peace being the way to win this aim! Beyond the mere refusal to support or take part in any war, rebelling for peace is empowered by a Motive Force affecting priority aspects-or Focal Points-of human society: Unjust Authority, Human Survival, Human Oneness, Peace Education, Peace Religion, and the Peace Press. Peace-minded World Citizenship is and remains this peace revolt's ultimate manifestation!

Measuring Peace by Richard Caplan Pdf

How can we know if the peace that has been established following a civil war is a stable peace? More than half of all countries that experienced civil war since World War II have suffered a relapse into violent conflict, in some cases more than once. Meanwhile the international community expends billions of dollars and deploys tens of thousands of personnel each year in support of efforts to build peace in countries emerging from violent conflict. This book argues that efforts to build peace are hampered by the lack of effective means of assessing progress towards the achievement of a consolidated peace. Rarely, if ever, do peacebuilding organizations and governments seek to ascertain the quality of the peace that they are helping to build and the contribution that their engagement is making (or not) to the consolidation of peace. More rigorous assessments of the robustness of peace are needed. These assessments require clarity about the characteristics of, and the requirements for, a stable peace. This in turn requires knowledge of the local culture, local history, and the specific conflict dynamics at work in a given conflict situation. Better assessment can inform peacebuilding actors in the reconfiguration and reprioritization of their operations in cases where conditions on the ground have deteriorated or improved. To build a stable peace, it is argued here, it is important to take the measure of peace.
