Candles in the Dark: A New
Spirit for a Plural World
Edited by Barbara Sundberg Baudot
Forward by Vaclav Havel
Cover Art and Drawings by Philippe Dumas
Published by University of Washington Press, 2003
An international compendium of essays that shares a
sense of the importance of introducing ethical and
spiritual concepts and values into the public discourse on
progress and globalization issues. They offer a new
approach to international relations and public policy that
esteems the human spirit and dignity as central values in
decision making, seeks links between self interest and the
common good, and introduces, in a practical way,
philosophical, spiritual, and cultural perspectives in the
political discourse on global political and socioeconomic
problems.
From the most favored and the lesser favored countries of
the world and those people who tell of the common task of
peace and well-being comes this wonderfully persuasive
guide to a better life for all.

organizer of the Copenhagen Summit and Copenhagen
Seminars. Additional contributions and comments are

In 1995, Denmark hosted the United Nations World Summit
for Social Development. That international meeting
attended by world leaders, legislators, and
representatives of business and labor adopted the
Copenhagen Declaration for Social Development, a document
committing governments to pursue the eradication of
poverty, the promotion of full employment, and the
fostering of safe, stable, and just societies. To
implement these goals, the government of Denmark organized
the Copenhagen Seminars for Social Progress. This book
presents a synthesis and interpretation of the work
undertaken at these four seminars: A World Economy for the
Benefit of All, Humane Markets for Humane Societies,
Political Culture and Institutions for a World Community,
and Monitoring Social Progress and Social Regress. The
book makes a significant contribution to the international
dialogue on social progress and will be of interest to
economists, planners, aid agencies, and all students of
international studies.
"No public body or group, I
speak seriously, has undertaken a more important and
germane effort in our time."

Crossing the Divide: Dialogue among
Civilizations
Published by the School of Diplomacy and International
Relations,
Seton Hall University
South Orange, New Jersey (USA)
Visit the Crossing the Divide home page
"A Dialogue among Civilizations is a dialogue between
those who perceive diversity as a threat and those who do
not. Crossing the Divide is more than just a call for
Dialogue. It is the anti-terrorism manifesto."
