  Beyond States - Powers Peoples...

  Today, the majority of the peoples of the planet live in nation-states, based upon the idea, if never the reality, of a single people, a single culture, a single rule of law, and a single source of sovereign authority. But will they continue to do so in the future? 
   
   
   
  None of the major challenges that confront humanity today—from climate change to disease, from terrorism to mass migration—can be handled effectively by single nation-states, no matter how powerful. The world is no longer made up only of states but also of an ever-increasing multitude of interstate networks and organizations which recognize no borders. We are beginning to be able to imagine the very real possibility of a new global civil society. But what political form should this take? 
   
   
   
  By examining the history of the evolution of human society from the world's first empires to today's world of interstate networks, this book argues that there now exists the possibility of the emergence of a new political form, a global 'federation of federations', that will bring the species closer to the possibility of a more harmonious, equitable, and secure future.

  Presentation of the objectives of the book and the proposal to offer an alternative perspective to "The Power of Habit."Welcome to the book "Unveiling Habits: An Alternative Approach to The Power of Habit Book." In this work, we embark on a journey of exploring and questioning traditional theories about habits, presenting an alternative perspective to that proposed by the author Charles Duhigg in his acclaimed book.Since the publication of "The Power of Habit," many readers have been inspired by Duhigg's ideas about how habits shape our lives and how we can transform them to achieve success and happiness. However, while we recognize the merit of your contributions, we also believe that it is essential to question and deepen the understanding of the complex mechanisms that govern our automatic behaviors.Our approach is not simply to challenge Duhigg's work for contesting. On the contrary, we seek to expand knowledge on the subject of habits and to provide readers with a more complete and refined view of how they are formed, how they are maintained and how they can be modified.Our goal is to go beyond the simplistic idea that all habits follow a pattern of trigger-routine-reward, highlighting that habits are much more complex than this formula. We will investigate the influence of the social and cultural context on the formation of habits, as well as the importance of self-awareness for the change of entrenched behaviours.As we dive into this journey, we will seek support in recent research on neuroscience, behavioral psychology and other relevant disciplines. We will be looking for a deeper understanding of the brain connections that support habits, as well as identifying effective strategies for the adoption and maintenance of positive habits.Throughout the next chapters, we invite you to reflect with us and question the established premises without fear of exploring new horizons. Our intention is to offer a complementary rather than competitive approach to Duhigg's work, providing readers with a comprehensive and grounded view of the habits that govern our lives.We hope that, at the end of this journey, you will feel empowered to understand better the mechanics of habits and to make conscious choices that lead you to a healthier, more productive and satisfying life. Accompany us in discovering the nuances and secrets behind habits, and together we will unravel the power that they really exercise in our lives.

  In the Shadow of the Rising Sun...

  Olga Henderson

  In February 1942, nine-year-old Olga Morris and her family were in Singapore when the city fell to the Japanese Imperial Army in the biggest defeat in history of the British Forces. Turned back at an evacuation ship’s gangway as the bombs fell, Olga and her parents and siblings were forced to take their chances and hide out until, captured by Japanese soldiers, they were sent on a forced march to the notorious Changi Prison. 
   
  There’s a certain stereotype of the British in Singapore in the ‘30s and early ‘40s, which Olga Morris – Henderson as she is now – definitely did not fit. Her family was not part of the privileged Raffles Hotel set, with their big houses and servants. Her father worked in construction. Olga and her siblings grew up in Johor Bahru, a diverse part of Malaya just across the causeway from Singapore, amongst children of all faiths and cultures. It was a very happy upbringing. 
   
  All that changed in 1942. Olga was playing with her guinea pigs when a British Army officer arrived to tell her parents that the family had just 30 minutes to pack and be ready for evacuation to Singapore. The Japanese were ten miles away. Olga’s mother grabbed the family photograph album and they ran… 
   
  Days later, Singapore fell. Three years of captivity followed. Three years of disease, malnutrition, deprivation and oppression in Changi and Sime Road. 
   
  Desperate for food, Olga and her friends bravely raided the vegetable plot; “dodging the searchlights” and sometimes endured severe punishments. She stood alongside the other women and children through the ordeal of Tenko in the blazing sun. Halfway through their captivity, Olga’s ten-year-old brother was put into the men’s camp, where he suffered terrible cruelty that scarred him for life. 
   
  February 2022 marked 80 years since the Fall of Singapore and Olga is now ready to tell the story of her years as a child prisoner of war. It’s a story of great fear and deprivation; of a childhood utterly lost to conflict. It’s also a story of class prejudice and unkindness that didn’t end when Olga was freed from the camp and returned to England as a refugee. 
   
  Yet moments of humour and camaraderie also live on in Olga’s memory. There were plays and imaginary tea parties and even a secret girl guide group that held clandestine meetings, where they worked on sewing a quilt.
