War presents the most degraded moral environment humanity creates. It is an arena where individuality is subsumed in collective violence and humanity is obscured as a faceless, merciless enemy pitted against its reflection in an elemental struggle for survival. A barbaric logic has guided the conduct of war throughout history. Yet as Cathal Nolan reveals in this book, even as war can obliterate hope and decency at the grand level it simultaneously produces conditions that permit astonishing exceptions of mercy and shared dignity. Pulling the trigger is usually both the expedient thing and required by war's grim and remorseless calculus. Yet somehow the trigger is not always pulled. Humanity is rediscovered and honoured in a flash of recognition. This book gathers and explores acts of singular mercy, giving them form and substance - across wars, causes, and opposing uniforms.

The article examines the global challenges of our time (globalisation, global instability, global climate change, digitalisation, etc.) and the role of science in resolving them. The history of science testifies that new ideas and theories are put forward most often when, within the framework of existing knowledge, an area of ignorance of the causes of a certain range of phenomena and processes appears. It is noted that Belarus is implementing a comprehensive program for the introduction of digital technologies in production, as well as in the health care, education, and culture systems. The basic components of a full-format digital technology package are powerful centralised and distributed computing resources, software based on artificial intelligence systems. Here, new generation network resources are being mastered, combining Big Data. The role of science in the movement of humanity towards the future is comprehended. The need for the emergence of human civilisation, in the center of which man will live and act, is affirmed. This person is comprehensively developed, multidimensional, creatively transforming the surrounding reality.

ABSTRACT Humanity in the Black explores the theoretical framework of Counter-Racist Logic created by Neely Fuller Jr. as a defense mechanism for humans politically classified as black. The purpose of this presentation is to display how Counter-Racist Logic can eliminate the cancerous confusion caused by the social construct of race. Humans who have been assigned to the racial category of black will be able to courageously acknowledge the social construct of race, acknowledge the effects of identifying with a description of a race, and how to use logic to counter the religious white superiority belief system (Fuller, 2016). The method used to facilitate this exploration is a combination of Comedy and Hip Hop. They both activate what Fuller (1984) describes as process of thought, speech, and action. Counter-Racist Logic will represent the immune system, created for resisting the cancerous dehumanization of the social construct of race. Major contributions of my dissertation include an application of the counter-racist code system concept, a critique of the intentional and continuous use of dehumanizing racial categories towards specific human populations, and my perspective on how to apply Counter-Racist Logic using human modes of artistic resistance against the false religion of white superiority. Comedy and Hip Hop will serve as methodological immune responses to the illogical religion of race, producing curriculums of healing for humans who are socially, legally, politically described, and assigned as black, or persons of color (Fuller, 1984; Watkins, 2001; Welsing, 1991; Woodson, 2007).

""The UN was not created to take mankind to heaven, but to save humanity from hell."" --Dag Hammarskjold, United Nations Secretary-General 1953-1961 The turn of the 21st century was an objective low point in the history of human health: AIDS was scourging Africa, millions of women died each year in child birth, and billions suffered under malnourishment and poverty. In response, the United Nations launched its Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), an ambitious charter that since 2000 has measurably reduced the worldwide burdens of poverty, hunger, and disease. With the MDGs set to expire in 201

The dimensions of the central theme are illuminated by Schweitzer's discussions of his philosophy of culture, the course of his life, his ministry to human needs in Africa, the idea of reverence for life, the ideal of world peace, the significance of liberal Christianity, and the lives, world-views, and contributions of Johann Goethe, J. S. Bach, and Jesus of Nazareth. The pages of these selections give a remarkable revelation of the creative spirit of a modern saint and philosopher. The translation is by Water E.
