Inspired by Lorenzo Milani's (1923-1967) biography, this book takes different trajectories in promoting and/or problematizing peace, and confirming the complex and mutltifaceted nature of the struggle for authentically peaceful social relations. The chapters range from the struggle over the creation of memories to repositioning peace artifacts within museums, from rewriting history text-books to exposing the limits of peace programs, from interrogating symbolic violence to exposing real violence in different contexts. Borg and Grech also explore the promotion of subversion as a viable democratic act to reimagining a Church for the post-internet world, and from an understanding of peace as a community-in-difference to deconstructing peace and the cosmopolitan self. This book aims to engage readers in reclaiming the right to dream of a world that disowns fatalism, a world that refuses to accept uncritically the colonization of human beings and their resources on a local and global scale.
