Our State / Ourselves
This paper presents findings from interview research with Canadian police officers deployed to the UN peacekeeping missions in Haiti between 2004 and 2017.

It does so first by surveying common readings of S mith and noting that engagement of his work within religious ethics and theology tends to rely on misconceptions prevalent in the…
