This little book discusses paths to address environmental conflicts based on a restorative justice perspective of imagining, practicing, and living justice. It proposes an approach that understands the relationship between humankind and environment beyond the narrow conception of homo economicus, considering the human beings in their social, political, economic, historic, spiritual, cognitive, emotional, aesthetic, and ecological dimensions, as well as in their connection with nature and non-human entities.

In 1970s, Bakersfield, California, a group of wealthy and influential men operated behind a wall of silence. They called themselves the Lords of Bakersfield. For an eleven-year-old boy named Robert Mistriel, they were untouchable and unavoidable. Sent from a boys’ home to perform odd jobs, Robert was drawn into years of systematic sexual abuse. Survival became transactional: obedience in exchange for food, shelter, money, and protection. Resistance was punished. As the abuse escalated and the system meant to protect him repeatedly failed, Robert’s sense of justice collapsed.

One wrongful conviction. One stolen life. One community rising to confront the lies that put an innocent man behind bars. Free Tony Hunter is the true story of a Black man in Louisiana who has always maintained his innocence—and of the setup, the lies, and the prosecutorial misconduct that took his freedom long before the verdict was read. This book is not just about what happened after Tony went to prison. It takes you back to who Tony was before the conviction: his life, his relationships, his faith, and the moments that led up to the day everything changed.

Freedom Without Blood is a philosophical and ethical exploration of how modern society justifies suffering in the name of religion, law, and tradition.

Ainsi plaide Richard Malka, avocat de Charlie Hebdo, lors du procès des attentats de janvier 2015. Procès intellectuel, procès historique, au cours duquel l'auteur retrace, avec puissance, le cheminement souterrain et idéologique du Mal. Après Le droit d'emmerder Dieu, éloge du droit au blasphème, Richard Malka revient sur l'origine profonde d'une guerre millénaire au sein de l'islam : la controverse brûlante sur la nature du Coran.

Dans la vie d'un avocat, il y a des plaidoiries qu'on n'oublie pas. Elles vous obsèdent des mois, vous réveillent la nuit, vous rendent malade puis vous marquent pour toujours.

Pour ce « procès des caricatures », nous étions passionnés, complices, angoissés, heureux de défendre notre cause. Charlie Hebdo a gagné contre les intégristes, le droit à l'irrévérence a triomphé, mais les dix années qui ont suivi ont été tragiques.
