Dear Friends!

I hope you are all well!
May I give you a short overview over some of our news:

Thanks to the support of our Global Advisory Board we were able to assemble two large research projects!

Thanks to the support of our Global Advisory Board, we were able to assemble two large projects that are in the pipeline now:

1. Refugees and Humiliation
and
2. Terrorism and Humiliation

These two projects were stimulated by my meeting with the United Nations University last year. I learned that they think that the humiliation argument is central and that they would like to cooperate with us on research.

"Humiliation in the Academic Setting": A Special Symposium Issue (January 2006) of Experiments in Education, published by the S.I.T.U. Council of Educational Research!

Please see the Special Issue as it is evolving!

Edited Book on Violent Confict and Humiliation

Pease see Victoria Fontan preparing an edited book on Violent Conflict and Humiliation, with the help of Linda Hartling, Arie Nadler, and Evelin Lindner.

The process is under way to found a non-for-profit organisation!

Furthermore, the process is under way to found a non-for-profit organisation.

Peter Max offers us his art!

Then, Peter Max offers us his art to auction away to assemble funds!

I have been teaching in Tokyo in the past months and it was such pleasure!

I send my warmest thanks to all of you for your wonderful support and help!
