Mars and the Earthlings update - my writings in astrobiology

Yesterday was the deadline for submitting revised text to the editors of the book Mars and the Earthlings. I participate in Work group 9, which addresses political, societal and ethical aspects of going to and potentially settling on Mars. Now after recent work and editing, I am credited with having contributed to the following sections made by Workgroup 9, along with other scholars:

"Political motivations and factors for Mars race" 

"Civil liberties vs. security: How much do we have to sacrifice individual freedom to survive on Mars?" 

"Demography"

"Safety and governance" 

"Ethical considerations of non-humans on Mars"

"Novel ecosystems"
