Hi guys,
Here’s my submission for the collective assignment. I didn’t have space for a conclusion but it’s within the 2 page limit. I really tried to focus on the peace formula and break that down in the […]

Great work everyone! Are you talking at 8PM or 8AM? If you are talking at 8AM I can make the Skype call with all of you.

Great work Mostafa. I agree the two page limit is tricky. You look to have nailed the issues though!

So, team – is the idea then that we weave all this into one piece for submission?

Hi Carole – I meant to […]

Hi all – here’s a timely piece of evidence showing Cuba’s preparedness to pursue non-violent conflict resolution and its willingness to seek harmony and equity among nations in the protection of the innocent. Below is a link to Cuba’s recent accession (just yesterday in fact – the ink’s not even dry yet) to the UN Convention on Cluster Munitions.…[Read more]

The reason I’m raising this here is that, consistent with Luke’s assessment of a US change in tactic (serving an otherwise unchanged strategy of domination), the neoliberal market economy the US is trying to install in Cuba will likely achieve domination predominately through structural violence. In such circumstances, the basic needs of ordinary…[Read more]

I wanted to share this short video with you as it contains an especially effective illustration of the inner workings of structural violence (the form of violence first elucidated by Professor Galtung), using the example of Uganda here in East Africa.

Hi all, just finishing off my bibliography and will aim to post the draft first thing tomorrow. How does 8pm work for a Skype session? Just for an hour or so?

Hi team,

Cool! WIll continue along that format then. It’ll be a lot easier to create a cohesive piece if we’ve all stuck to the same structure

That’s what I have done @noconno1 🙂
