Everyone,
I appreciate this chance for us to consider what new new GHA volume on
peace should contain.
As a reader, I would prefer to read about methods and strategies leaving to
world peace.
However, according to this proposal, the articles are to be limited to the
GHA theory. This means, for example, if I could arrange for Hillary Clinton
or someone to give us ideas on peace, the article would be rejected because
it lacks what I might best be called *GHA Primacy*, which could mean that
peace methods are only important if they show respect for the theories
propounded in the ABC of Harmony.
For the life of em I have no idea why we would limit the study of world
peace to such a framework.
I thought our goal was peace, not a theory.
Actually, as I reflect, it is disappointing when a peace theorist tries to
insist that his or her theory is the only or the best one. To some extent,
this is a problem in several schools of thought.
So I would urge everyone to vote for a book on peace, not GHA peace theory.
But then, again, the dice may seem to be loaded as we have only a few days
in which to respond.
I vote for a book on peace.
In peace and harmony,
Bruce
