Written on select walls and alleyways of the new nation are the words, “Respect existence or expect resistance.” The new nation was supposed to be a utopian society, but it starts down a path worse than Bestellen’s. While Sam searches for peace and only finds vials, Mavis and Logan get too close to things that should have been left alone.
In the second volume, Anastasiou focuses on emergent post-nationalist trends, their implications for peace, and recent attempts to reach mutually acceptable agreements between Greek and Turkish Cypriots. He documents the transformation of Greece, Cyprus, and Turkey within the context of Europeanization and globalization. While leaders of both communities have failed to resolve the conflict, Anastasiou argues that the accession of Cyprus into the European Union has created a structure and process that promises a multiethnic, democratic Cyprus. With great depth and balance, The Broken Olive Branch presents a fresh analysis of the Cyprus conflict and new insights on the influence of nationalism.

This book has been developed over the lifetime of the author. The words upon these pages are prayers written in the form of poems. Many of them have music to go with them that reside in the mind and heart of the author. The words and music of each poem arrived all at once as a result of personal experiences of the author or members of the communities she has served. Sometimes the inspiration was a radio show or a sermon. Each poem represents another step in the author's journey with Jesus. May this documented journey help draw you to a closer walk with Jesus.
John Maynard Keynes, then a rising young economist, participated in the Paris Peace Conference in 1919 as chief representative of the British Treasury and advisor to Prime Minister David Lloyd George. He resigned after desperately trying and failing to reduce the huge demands for reparations being made on Germany. The Economic Consequences of the Peace is Keynes' brilliant and prophetic analysis of the effects that the peace treaty would have both on Germany and, even more fatefully, the world.

The human race has often put a high value on struggle, strife, turmoil, and excitement. Peace has been regarded as a utopian, unattainable, perhaps dull ideal or as some random element over which we have no control. However, the desperate necessities of the nuclear age have forced us to take peace seriously as an object of both personal and national policy. Stable Peace attempts to answer the question, If we had a policy for peace, what would it look like? A policy for peace aims to speed up the historically slow, painful, but persistent transition from a state of continual war and turmoil to one of continual peace. In a stable peace, the war-peace system is tipped firmly toward peace and away from the cycle of folly, illusion, and ill will that leads to war. Boulding proposes a number of modest, easily attainable, eminently reasonable policies directed toward this goal. His recommendations include the removal of national boundaries from political agendas, the encouragement of reciprocal acts of good will between potential enemies, the exploration of the theory and practice of nonviolence, the development of governmental and nongovernmental organizations to promote peace, and the development of research in the whole area of peace and conflict management. Written in straightforward, lucid prose, Stable Peace will be of importance to politicians, policy makers, economists, diplomats, all concerned citizens, and all those interested in international relations and the resolution of conflict.
Are you holding on too tightly to pieces of your life, like perfectionism, people pleasing, or your jam-packed schedule? As a busy wife, mother, and ministry leader, Nicole Drayer knows how you feel. Her need for control only led to anxiety and high stress, rather than to God's peace that she ultimately desired. In "Peace by Piece," Nicole encourages you through personal stories of salvation, freedom, healing, and victory over the bondage of sin from her past and renewed strength to push through struggles of everyday life as a wife, mother, and child of God. It's not an easy road, but when the pieces of your life are given to God, then His peace can reside in your heart. It's her heart's desire to give you hope, encouragement, and inspiration through the lessons God has taught her (sometimes the hard way).
