This volume extends a summons to today's churches to give primacy once again to urban ministry. Villafane lays out a vision of a church that, unlike the trend today, refuses to retreat from the challenges of city life.
Governments recognise that national security in the turbulent conditions of the early twenty-first century must centre on the creation of public confidence that normal life can continue even in the face of threats such as terrorism and proliferation, and of natural hazards such as pandemics and climate change. Based on his own experience in government, David Omand argues that while public security is vital for good government, the effects of bad government will result from failure to maintain the right relationship between justice, liberty, privacy, civic harmony and security measures. His book examines in detail how secret intelligence helps governments to deliver security, but also risks raising public concern over its methods. A set of ethical principles is proposed to guide intelligence and security work within the framework of human rights. Securing the State provides a new way of thinking about the cycle of activities that generates secret intelligence, examines the issues that arise from the way that modern intelligence uses technology to access new sources of information, and discusses how the meaning of intelligence can best be elucidated. The limits of intelligence in enabling greater security are explored, especially in guiding government in a world in which we must learn not to be surprised by surprise. Illustrated throughout by historical examples, David Omand provides new perspectives for practitioners and those teaching security and intelligence studies and for a wider readership offers an accessible introduction to pressing issues of public policy.
3 months into their relationship, Naomi feels like everything is finally starting to fall into place in her life. But as doubt begins to creep into her head again, she sets out on a mission to make sure that the relationship between her and Michael is truly based on more than just the physical, and in the process manages to create a ripple effect of issues in the relationships of all those around her. Having finally found something more important to focus on in life, Michael creates a healthy balance between his work life and his home life unaware that, behind the scenes, his father is planning his next move which could force Michael to leave everything he knows behind, and finally give in to his fathers demands in an attempt to save the most important person in his life. His brother. When faced with a second road in life to choose from, will they stay the current course, or put everything in jeopardy, including their happiness, to help those who mean the most to them.
