En savoir plus sur le livre
This groundbreaking volume documents a comprehensive peacebuilding initiative addressing the Israeli-Palestinian conflict while reviewing the theoretical foundations of these efforts. Theory chapters delve into key peace-related concepts, such as the nature of conflict, individual and group identity, the psychological effects of prolonged hostilities, and mechanisms for reconciliation and inclusiveness. Central to the discussion is the Building Peace through Knowledge Project, a four-year multidisciplinary program that employs various professional and community interventions to mitigate political violence and its trauma. The author provides powerful insights linking knowledge to peacebuilding by analyzing: the relationships between attitudes and ideology in intergroup conflict; the psychosocial impact of political violence on Israelis and Palestinians; the literature on people-to-people interventions in conflict reduction; the roles of forgiveness, reconciliation, and fairness in resolution; the methodology and findings of the project; and the potential of knowledge-based interventions for sustainable peace in other regions. Practitioners, mental health professionals, and scholars interested in multicultural mental health, cross-cultural psychology, political violence, and peace education will find this work to be an ideabook, mission statement, and roadmap toward a more stable world.
