Klappentext

Written by a team of experienced teachers and researchers in Peace Studies, this book assesses the field of peace and conflict research from its origins to the present day. It introduces influential concepts and theories, and examines the processes and dynamics of peacebuilding. Using case studies from around the globe, the book discusses a range of key topics in Peace Studies, such as: the meanings of peace; the causes of violent political conflict; peace processes and peace agreements; international peace and security; peace activism and the role of civil society; human rights, transitional justice, and reconciliation; asylum, migration and borders; gender, war, and peace; sustainable development and peace; religion, conflict, and peace; arts, sport, and peace; and peace education. The book will be of interest to scholars and students in peace studies, international relations, security studies, war and conflict studies, conflict transformation, as well as anyone interested in the research and practice of peace.
