Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
Unarmed Civilian Protection (UCP) is practised globally by civilians protecting fellow civilians without the use of weapons. This book argues that while UCP is useful and transformative in its own right, its principles and values mean it has the potential to transform our responses in a range of social contexts where there is violence.
Chapters investigate the relationship between power, protection and peace; community-led aspects of protection; and successful behaviours and actions in protection. The book argues that when UCP is accepted as a viable form of protection from direct violence, there are wider implications for communities, security and violence. In turn, these insights can provide us with new models for ensuring people?s safety.
