This Autumn issue of the CCTS newsletter contains three articles. The first is by Susan Seymour, who reflects on the background to the current situation in Macedonia and the different social, cultural and perceptual worlds inhabited by the two main ethnic groups there. The second is by Adam Curle, who describes an experiment to 'resocialise' ex-Prisoners of War at the end of World War II and considers its relevance for the twenty-first century. And the third is the review by Michael Randle of Andrew Rigby's new book: Justice and Reconciliation: After the Violence.
