118 p. ; 21 cm. Making Peace in the Global Village by ROBERT MCAFEE BROWN Neutron bombs...social injustice...escalating arms races... poverty...racism. At a time when national leaders are calling for more preparations for war, well-known author Robert McAfee Brown's compelling, hard-hitting book activates the Christian con-science in support of peacemaking. "We need," writes Brown, "to reflect on some new ways of making peace, since we haven't been notably successful in our attempts to do so in the past. What this small book tries to do is to provide a perspective for peacemaking, though not a program. It examines how we have to look at our world-and ourselves-if we are to be peacemakers. When we have done some grappling with that, we will be in a better position to work on programs, which will become the order of the day as soon as the book is closed. Such a perspec-tive won't come out of the blue, or out of heaven, or out of books, or out of abstract reflection. It will only come out of looking very open-ly and honestly at the world we are in and what we are doing within it' Peace 261.8730664243436 Transformatio Library Bandung Theological Seminary 261.873 Bro m E98028236 Non Fiction 261.873 Bro m E99030720 Non Fiction 261.873 Bro m making.jpg 21561 1980-10-31 00:00:00 2026-03-04 17:39:39 machine generated
