‘I am a man, nothing human is alien to me‘ – Terence the African.
This peer-reviewed journal was started in 1999 at the dawn of the 21st Century.
This is the December 2020 issue.
Covid-19 has impacted us all. This issue is focused on police killings in the US.
Human sacrifice is often assumed to be a matter of the past. Yet a close analysis of the behaviour of US Police in their killing of unarmed civilians suggests that as Professor Ian Loader of Oxford University, expresses it: ‘something else is going on’. Much of the organisational behaviour which is repeated over time is poorly explained in accordance with their proclaimed or decried motivations and procedural concerns. If one wishes to stop this behaviour it is essential to understand what is actually going on and not to accept at face value superficial explanations however apparently plausible.
