    When violence leaves no bruise, is it even violence? (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    This week in England and Wales, the Home Office published new statutory guidance for Domestic Abuse Related Death Reviews, the process previously known as Domestic Homicide Reviews. The change sounds bureaucratic, but it reflects something much more significant. A death related to domestic abuse does not necessarily follow a final murderous assault. It may be a suicide after months or years of coercive control, emotional abuse or economic abuse. By the time somebody dies, the violence may have b

    Freedom should mean having a future you can actually choose (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    In the aftermath of the attacks of 11 September 2001, George W. Bush famously told the US Congress that America’s enemies “hate our freedoms”: freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom to vote, assemble and disagree. Those freedoms matter enormously. People have struggled and died for them, and there are still many places where exercising them can mean imprisonment or worse.

But as the Sea Lion project moves towards production, another question has become unavoidable: should hundreds of millions of barrels of new oil be extracted at all? Thirteen years ago, I wrote a Pressenza article about the Falklands/Malvinas dispute and argued that the people who live on the islands matter more than the competing territorial claims of Britain and Argentina.

    “Absolutely minute”: Thatcher, Miliband and Britain’s symbolic and ineffectual sanctions against apartheid (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    In October 1985, under enormous pressure from other Commonwealth governments, Margaret Thatcher reluctantly accepted limited sanctions against apartheid South Africa, including restrictions on imports of Krugerrand gold coins. Asked by the BBC what Britain had conceded, she replied “Absolutely minute.” Krugerrands, she pointed out, had “virtually stopped coming” anyway, but the Commonwealth wanted Britain to give a signal. Thatcher maintained throughout those years that she opposed apartheid; wh

    Nonviolent Journalism and the Collective Field of Human Freedom (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    This post is also available in: Spanish, German Violence is easy to recognise when someone is being beaten, shot or killed. It becomes more difficult when nobody is holding a weapon. Poverty, discrimination, exploitation and repression can restrict a human life just as effectively, although they do so in very different ways and with very different consequences. Simply adding more categories to an ever-growing list of forms of violence does not really solve the problem. The more interesting quest
