Waleed Aly

Scott Stephens

In this original, eloquent essay, Waleed Aly and Scott Stephens explore the ethics and politics of public debate – and the threats it now faces. In a healthy democracy we need the capacity to disagree. Yet Aly and Stephens note a growing tendency to dismiss and exile opponents, to treat them with contempt. This toxic partisanship has been imported from the United States, where it has been corrosive – and a temptation for both left and right. Aly and Stephens analyse some telling examples and look back to heroes of democracy who found a better way forward. This compelling essay draws on philosophy, literature and history to make an urgent case about the present.

Quarterly Essay 87

Uncivil Wars

A step-by-step guide that shows you "How to Catch a Cheater Red handed"; written by a private investigator with over 20 years of experience of real-time field experience who has participated in hundreds of divorce and child custody cases and spoken to thousands of witnesses, victims, and cheaters. This complete manual pickups where all other other "catch a cheater" books leave off. This manual was written in layperson's terms for the person that wishes to conduct his or her own investigation and details many of the tools and techniques that are routinely used by licensed private investigators to catch cheaters in the act. It also contains suggestions for lower-cost alternatives to expensive spy gear and surveillance equipment that I have used in the field and found to perform satisfactorily.
