  World-renowned philosopher A. C. Grayling explores the messy politics of the 'culture wars' 
   
   
   
  It seems like we can't talk about anything nowadays . .  . Whether it's war or something utterly inconsequential, the internet is primed for furor. And the results can be horrifying—from online pile ons and doxing to job loss and, in some cases, death. But how did we end up here? 
   
   
   
  Nuanced and historically grounded, A. C. Grayling searches for middle ground in an otherwise incendiary debate. Looking at the history of cancellation, from Ancient Greek 'ostracism' through hemlock cups, witch trials, and the House of Un-American Activities, Discriminations is a timely examination of the state of our public culture and the chilling effect it's having on intellectual discourse.

  Summer of 1940 The: The History...

  One of the most famous people in the world came to tour the city of Paris for the first time on June 28, 1940. Over the next three hours, he rode through the city’s streets, stopping to tour L’Opéra Paris. He rode down the Champs-Élysées toward the Trocadero and the Eiffel Tower, where he had his picture taken. After passing through the Arc de Triomphe, he toured the Pantheon and old medieval churches, though he did not manage to see the Louvre or the Palace of Justice. Heading back to the airport, he told his staff, “It was the dream of my life to be permitted to see Paris. I cannot say how happy I am to have that dream fulfilled today.” Four years after his tour, Adolf Hitler would order the city’s garrison commander, General Dietrich von Choltitz, to destroy Paris, warning his subordinate that the city "must not fall into the enemy's hand except lying in complete debris." 
  The French had not expected the Germans would be able to move armored units through the Ardennes Forests, a heavily wooded region spanning parts of Belgium, France and the Netherlands. To the Allies’ great surprise, the Germans had no trouble rolling across these lands in the span of weeks. And by invading France from the north, the Germans simply avoided the Maginot Line. The French surrendered in June 1940, and the British narrowly escaped disaster by transporting thousands of soldiers and equipment across the English Channel at Dunkirk. Thus, by the middle of 1940, the Axis powers and the Soviet Union had overrun nearly all of Western Europe. With France out of the war, and without active participation by the United States, Great Britain virtually stood alone. 
  However, Operation Dynamo, as the British named the Dunkirk evacuation mission, bolstered British morale and defenses sufficiently to keep the “Sceptered Isle” in the war. This, in turn, led to the eventual entry of the United States, and helped doom Adolf Hitler's “Thousand-Year Reich” to a ruinous end in 1945.

  Transgender Rights vs Women’s...

  Robert Wintemute

  “Trans rights are human rights!” “Women’s rights are human rights!” Yes, but the human rights of two groups often conflict. The only way to resolve these conflicts is through calm, rational, public debate. Freedom of expression protects the right of women to question certain demands by trans rights activists, even if this might offend. Raising conflicts between transgender rights and women’s rights is not “transphobic”, because disagreement is not hatred. The concept of “transphobia” should be defined narrowly as statements or acts indicating hostility or prejudice towards transgender persons. If the right to speak about conflicts is protected, and we start by acknowledging the broad areas of agreement about the human rights of transgender people, we can turn to the substance of these conflicts. 
    
  Should it be possible for an individual to change their legal sex? If so, how easy should it be? Should it be changeable only after a diagnosis of gender dysphoria and a waiting period? Or should it be sufficient to “self-identify” as a person of the opposite sex? Or should sex be removed from birth certificates, so that there is nothing to change?  
    
  Robert Wintemute carefully examines these conflicts, considers the differences between transgender rights and lesbian, gay and bisexual (LGB) rights, and proposes ways to achieve co-existence between transgender rights and women’s and children’s rights. 
    
  "Wintemute expertly illuminates the transgender debate. His journey through time and evolving views is clear and insightful, and he examines legal, policy, and ethical challenges with depth. In an increasingly polarised environment, his respect for all rights is very refreshing."—Debbie Hayton, author of Transsexual Apostate
