  7 Areas Without Laws - Exploring...

  Laws are the invisible threads that hold societies together, shaping behavior, enforcing order, and establishing the boundaries of right and wrong. Yet, scattered across the world, there are rare places where laws hold little to no authority—zones where governments have little presence, where no single entity enforces regulations, and where the concept of governance is fluid or entirely absent. These places, whether by accident of history, geopolitical disputes, or deliberate rejection of authority, exist on the fringes of civilization.  
    
  This book explores seven of these anarchic zones, each with its own unique circumstances and challenges. From the open ocean, where maritime law is a complex tangle of loopholes and jurisdictions, to the frozen expanse of Antarctica, where no country claims true ownership, these areas defy traditional governance. Some, like Bir Tawil—a small strip of land between Egypt and Sudan—are unclaimed due to border disputes, while others, like Slab City in California or Freetown Christiania in Denmark, are self-declared autonomous communities that reject the rules of mainstream society.  
    
  The existence of these lawless zones raises important questions: Can true freedom exist without laws? Is lawlessness always synonymous with chaos, or can people thrive outside the framework of government? In some of these areas, the absence of enforcement has led to disorder, crime, and exploitation. Pirates take advantage of international waters to operate freely, and smugglers use ungoverned territories to traffic goods and people. In other places, however, the lack of laws has fostered alternative communities built on mutual cooperation, artistic expression, and self-sufficiency.

This guidebook is about those undertakings - the so-called microadventures - that are really suitable for everyone, regardless of age and experience.

  Around the World in 80 Spiritual...

  Discover some of the world's most awe-inspiring and holy places, from Stonehenge to Uluru, and Walden Pond to Angkor Wat.
  
  Humans have always searched for and created meaning in the world around them, whether in breathtakingly stunning natural features and phenomena, acknowledging the ancient home of a particular faith or movement, or honouring the location of a significant event. In this beautifully illustrated guide, Alice Peck discusses what makes a place spiritual – whether reaches of time, geography, the provision of sustenance or inspiration, or mystery and magic – and then explores 80 such locations around the globe. Rather than a comprehensive travel guide, the description of each one includes a detail or tip – something beautiful, strange, relatively unknown or unfamiliar – to allow readers to deepen their focus and perhaps experience the place in a different way than they might expect. If you are unable to travel at this time, this book will help you plan your next adventure. And if you are trying to limit your carbon footprint, each destination is accompanied by a related meditation, prayer, practice or quotation to help you connect to the spirit of it from your own home.
