That thi s announcement happened on the eve of the elections that were scheduled for Valentine's Day (February 14, 2015) raises the specter of using this serious situation as part of an electioneering gimmick.  Nonetheless, the paper still remains relevant to the fundamental questions concerning the nexus between state, human and national ...
