Digital Transformation in Policing: The Promise, Perils and Solutions
English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031096908 | 319 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 12 MB
This book shares essential insights into how the social sciences and technology could foster new advances in managing the complexity inherent to the criminal and digital policing landscape. Said landscape is both dynamic and intricate, emanating as it does from crimes that are both persistent and transnational. Globalization, human and drug trafficking, cybercrime, terrorism, and other forms of transnational crime can have significant impacts on societies around the world. This necessitates a reassessment of what crime, national security and policing mean. Recent global events such as human and drug trafficking, the COVID-19 pandemic, violent protests, cyber threats and terrorist activities underscore the vulnerabilities of our current security and digital policing posture.

Kamala-Jnana, Pierre Deleuvre, Lenny Pedersen, "Dictionary of Alchemical Philosophy"
English | 2016 | pages: 218 | ISBN: 4990663616 | PDF | 116,0 mb
The first of the Three Keys of the F.A.R.+C. teachings on the Way of Cinnabar, Kamala-Jnana's "Dictionary of Alchemical Philosophy" is not only a classic in the literature of this Path but also one of the core works studied by the Brethren of his Rosicrucian Fraternity in their alchemical labors. While it takes the form of a dictionary of operations, substances and technical jargon of the Royal Art, it is something far more profound. The book is, in fact, a treatise that lays out the Magnum Opus, by way of the Cinnabar Path, providing the reader with information on the theory & mechanics of the confection of the Philosopher's Stone as well as the operative procedure thereof. And through its encyclopedic format, it furthermore becomes an indispensable work in "piecing together" the other treatises on this Path written by the Ajunta Temple Superior, Kamala-Jnana, as well as the other Adept alchemists of his Rosicrucian Order. This is the first time in the history of the enigmatic teachings of this Secret Society that the "Dictionary of Alchemical Philosophy" has been officially translated into English and it is the hope of the Brother alchemist responsible for this-a gentleman still dedicated to this Divine Labor-that the release of this monumental treatise in the English language may further support the past Fratres and Sorores of the Frères Aînés de la Rose+Croix in their noble quest to cause more of those called to become God's Elects.

Josiah Ober, "Demopolis: Democracy before Liberalism in Theory and Practice "
English | ISBN: 1316649830 | 2017 | 222 pages | EPUB | 1238 KB
What did democracy mean before liberalism? What are the consequences for our lives today? Combining history with political theory, this book restores the core meaning of democracy as collective and limited self-government by citizens. That, rather than majority tyranny, is what democracy meant in ancient Athens, before liberalism. Participatory self-government is the basis of political practice in 'Demopolis', a hypothetical modern state powerfully imagined by award-winning historian and political scientist Josiah Ober. Demopolis' residents aim to establish a secure, prosperous, and non-tyrannical community, where citizens govern as a collective, both directly and through representatives, and willingly assume the costs of self-government because doing so benefits them, both as a group and individually. Basic democracy, as exemplified in real Athens and imagined Demopolis, can provide a stable foundation for a liberal state. It also offers a possible way forward for religious societies seeking a realistic alternative to autocracy.
