A City on Mars is a book by Kelly and Zach Weinersmith, a bestselling author of Soonish, that explores the possibility of settling the stars in a distant future. The authors argue that while space technologies and business are progressing rapidly, there is still a lack of knowledge needed to create space nations without sparking conflict back home. The book explores questions about space settlements, such as the possibility of making babies in space, the governance of corporations, space war, housing crises, and the legal status of space cannibalism. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in exploring the possibility of becoming multiplanetary.

Speech Matters - On Lying...

Seana Valentine Shiffrin

To understand one another as individuals and to fulfill the moral duties that require such understanding, we must communicate with each other. We must also maintain protected channels that render reliable communication possible, a demand that, Seana Shiffrin argues, yields a prohibition against lying and requires protection for free speech. This book makes a distinctive philosophical argument for the wrong of the lie and provides an original account of its difference from the wrong of deception.Drawing on legal as well as philosophical arguments, the book defends a series of notable claims—that you may not lie about everything to the "murderer at the door," that you have reasons to keep promises offered under duress, that lies are not protected by free speech, that police subvert their mission when they lie to suspects, and that scholars undermine their goals when they lie to research subjects.Many philosophers start to craft moral exceptions to demands for sincerity and fidelity when they confront wrongdoers, the pressures of non-ideal circumstances, or the achievement of morally substantial ends. But Shiffrin consistently resists this sort of exceptionalism, arguing that maintaining a strong basis for trust and reliable communication through practices of sincerity, fidelity, and respecting free speech is an essential aspect of ensuring the conditions for moral progress, including our rehabilitation of and moral reconciliation with wrongdoers.

Urban Policy and Governance -...

Lyric Vale

Urban policy and governance are central to shaping the future of cities worldwide. As urban areas continue to expand, the challenges faced by city leaders, policymakers, and residents grow ever more complex. Urban policy refers to the strategies, frameworks, and regulations that guide the development and management of cities. It encompasses everything from housing and infrastructure to social equity, environmental sustainability, and economic growth. Governance, on the other hand, focuses on the decision-making processes, institutions, and actors responsible for implementing these policies. Effective urban governance ensures that cities function smoothly and equitably while addressing the diverse needs of their populations. 
The rapid pace of urbanization has been a defining feature of the 21st century, with over half of the world's population now living in cities. This urban shift presents numerous challenges, including overcrowding, resource scarcity, environmental degradation, and social inequality. However, it also creates opportunities for innovation and progress. A well-crafted urban policy can harness the potential of urbanization to improve quality of life, create economic opportunities, and foster sustainability. 
Urban governance is shaped by various factors, including political, economic, and social dynamics. At its core, it involves coordinating efforts among multiple stakeholders, such as local governments, private sector entities, civil society groups, and international organizations. The collaboration between these actors is crucial to addressing the complex and interconnected issues that cities face. Effective governance must be inclusive, transparent, and accountable to ensure that all voices, particularly those of marginalized communities, are heard and considered in decision-making processes.
