John Paul Lederach is internationally recognized for his breakthrough thinking and action related to conflict on all levels—person-to-person, factions within communities, warring nations. He explores why \"conflict transformation\" is more appropriate than \"conflict resolution\" or \"management.\" But he refuses to be drawn into impractical idealism. Topics include:\nDefining Conflict Transformation Conflict and Change Connecting Resolution and Transformation Creating a Map of Conflict Developing Our Capacities And much more!\nFirmly rooted in faith and Mennonite teachings, and related to the popular concept of restorative justice, conflict transformation is an idea with a deep reach. Its practice, says Lederach, requires \"both solutions and social change.\" It asks not simply \"How do we end something not desired?\" but \"How do we end something destructive and build something desired?\" How do we deal with the immediate crisis, as well as the long-term situation? What disciplines make such thinking and practices possible?\n\nThis title is part of The Little Books of Justice and Peacebuilding series.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1561483907\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: RDV.1561483907.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Lederach, John\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This book is in excellent condition.
