    • Fourth Issue of Nonkilling Working Papers is Now Available

    September 2010. The fourth issue of the Global Nonkilling Working Papers series has just been released, featuring an essay by Robley George on "Socioeconomic Democracy: A Nonkilling, Life-Affirming and Enhancing Psycho-Politico-Socio-Economic System". All issues can be downloaded for free in PDF at the Center's website or purchased in print for US$ 5,50.

    Following the Center’s mission of "promoting change toward the measurable goal of a killing-free world", the Global Nonkilling Working Papers series are dedicated to theory and research incorporating original scientific works that tackle issues related to the construction of nonkilling societies, where killing, threats to kill and conditions conductive to killing are absent.

    The collection is published on an occasional basis as texts are delivered by authors and reviewed by the Nonkilling Research Committees. In the near future, the Center intends to launch one issue per month, allowing a constant flow of information and new debate possibilities among scholars and practitioners of all fields.
