Writings on citizenship, faith and love
We need to rethink the role of money and distinguish its healthy purpose and the conditions which make it toxic.
We should not be afraid of the language of entitlements for entitlements give meaning to the idea of rights.
What are the institutional patterns of thought which dominate our minds from within?
Institutions are far worse than prisons and yet we have not weaned ourselves from using them to exclude and abuse people. We've not made people aware of how unnecessary this all is.
We must be careful how we try to change and influence each other. Superficial changes in language can create cynicism and undo the possibility of genuine change.
Rights are a vital part of civil society and human rights must be realised within existing legal and social structures.
