From intimate relationships to global politics, Sarah Schulman observes a continuum: that inflated accusations of harm are used to avoid accountability. Illuminating the difference between conflict and abuse, Schulman directly addresses our contemporary culture of scapegoating. This deep, brave, and bold work reveals how punishment replaces personal and collective self-criticism, and shows why difference is so often used to justify cruelty and shunning.

The 'duty of care' which the state owes to its citizens is a phrase much used, but what has it actually meant in Britain historically? And what should it mean in the future, once the immediate COVID crisis has passed? In A Duty of Care, Peter Hennessy divides post-war British history into BC (before corona) and AC (after corona). He looks back to beginnings when, during wartime, Sir William Beveridge identified the 'five giants' on the road to recovery: want, disease, ignorance, squalor and idleness and laid the foundations for the modern welfare state.

Written around A.D. 391, St. Ambroses treatise, which could easily be titled Concerning Christian Virtues, presents a rich tapestry of Christian ideals. Deeply valuing the sacred nature of the ministerial role, St. Ambrose passionately urges the clergy of his diocese to embody their high calling and serve as exemplary figures for their congregations. The text is marked by eloquent language, a noble style, and an abundance of vivid imagery and rhetoric, delivering philosophical and moral insights that are both profound and inspiring. (Summary by Euthymius)
