February 2, 2010April 27, 2016 Joám Evans Pim

The first two issues of the Global Nonkilling Working Papers series have been released, featuring a debate between renown primatologists Richard Wrangham and Robert Sussman (with Joshua Marshack) in Issue #1 and an essay on domestic violence by sociologist Laura L. Finley in Issue # 2. Both can be dowloaded for free at the Center’s website or purchased in print for US$ 5,50.

Following the Center’s mission of “promoting change toward the measurable goal of a killing-free world”, the Global Nonkilling Working Papers series are dedicated to theory and research incorporating original scientific works that tackle issues related to the construction of nonkilling societies, where killing, threats to kill and conditions conductive to killing are absent.

The collection is published on an occasional basis as texts are delivered by authors and reviewed by the Nonkilling Research Committees. In the near future, the Center intends to lauch one issue per month, allowing a constant flow of information and new debate possibilities among scholars and practitioners of all fields.
