New Justice Rising on the horizon

Picture
A new resource for peace work is heading your way! Our upcoming issue of Justice Rising is almost ready for the printer. In it you’ll find articles that explore our country’s military/industrial/corporate and Congressional complex—including our ever-growing “defense” budget—and examine the US’s complex relationship with violence, from militarized policing at home to imperialism overseas. 

The issue also features 
  • a look at the transition from a war budget to a moral peace budget, and the need to take action to shift federal spending to real human needs;
  • the impact of the US military on climate;
  • building a movement-driven foreign policy rooted in a feminist peace;
  • and more!
Featured authors are Christine Ahn on "Vision for a Feminist Peace," Christine Sorenson on "The Corporate War Machine," Pamela Haag on "Why do Americans Love Guns?," Cindy Piester on "The US Military’s Outsize Impact on the Climate Crisis," Martin Hart-Landsberg on "Reimagining Policing Means Challenging Militarism," and much more, including articles by Alliance writers Jim Tarbell, editor of Justice Rising, David Delk and Nancy Price.  

The Russian invasion of Ukraine has sparked global calls for peaceful settlement of the conflict. It has also emboldened hawkish demands for a no-fly zone, fears of a showdown between nuclear powers or the use of “tactical” nuclear weapons, and greatly increased military spending. A national peace movement for a peace economy has never been more necessary!

Good news! If you’re a member of the Alliance for Democracy, you’ll automatically receive a copy. If you’re not a member, we’ll happily send a copy at your request—just contact us at afd@thealliancefordemocracy.org, or call the office at 978-333-7971. We’ll also post Justice Rising online so you can read and print individual articles. Be sure to follow us on Facebook and Twitter to share them there, too.
