In a time when we are massively exposed to the premeditated devaluation and destruction of life in especially extra-western locations, Borg and Grech, along with their contributors, achieve a critical scholarly intervention that refuses to rescind the hope for genuine peace that should be rightfully accorded to all. As such, this book represents a uniquely original disquisition that should shift the way we think about peace and international relations; its arguments should persuade us to once again believe in the possibilities of viable and re-humanizing citizenships that affirm and improve the lives of people across the world.
