Article
In its trajectory as a scientific field, the peace research recognizes that defining “peace” is, in fact, an important part of the scientific strategy. Thus, the field has been dedicated to conceptualizing peace in a broad, dialogic, and complex manner, as complex and diverse as the world is. Likewise, conceptualizing violence is an intricate task...

As when loud church bells, or minaretchanting, created shared community time."Change" is concrete, empirical, intersubjectivelycommunicable. Some changes, likepositions of hands on clocks or ringing of bells,particulary Big Ben (now under repair), andsubat...

By focusing on the case studies of Cyprus, Kosovo, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Northern Ireland and South Africa, the book provides a spatial reading of agency in peacebuilding contexts. It conceptualises peacebuilding agency in post-confli...

Este manual presenta una introducción básica al Método Transcend de mediación de conflictos.
Article
Peace is seen as a transnational, transdisciplinary, and translevel – from inner peace to civilizations – concept. There are two aspects: negative peace as absence of violence, and positive peace as cooperation and harmony. A formula is presented based on equity and harmony for positive peace, and reconciliation of traumas and resolution of conflic...

Imagine all of the aforementioned driven by the opposite script: holism–holons of many units along many dimensions–and dialectics–forces and counter-forces, in plural, in all holons, and transcendence, going beyond, to new dialectics, in a new reality: the solution. And Gandhi? Caste was DMA frozen into deep culture-structure, protected by kshatriy...
Article
For one who has worked much on the theory and practice of change from systems of hierarchy to systems of equity, 15 June 1964 will never be forgotten. Those at the bottom of the world system of states, fragmented away from each other by colonial and imperial structures, marginalized, exploited, 77 of them came together and formed—not a very revolut...

O texto colige três pequenos textos do pensador norueguês das relações internacionais Johan Galtung, que abordam seus recidivos temas da paz, da pesquisa sobre a paz e dos direitos humanos. O primeiro texto trata de uma homenagem pelos 20 anos da morte do estadista social-democrata alemão Willy Brandt (1913-1992), por cuja política para com o Leste...
Chapter
Good conflict resolution is based on empathy with the concerns of all parties, on creativity (development!), and nonviolence (peace!). Democracy claims to know how to do this. But democracy is also subject to dialectics. Democracy should never become rigid but be innovative, not only be a source of innovation. Democracy can be seen as a way of maki...
Chapter
Gandhi is often portrayed as an ‘idealist’, particularly by ‘realists’ who hold military power, force, to be the ultimate mover in international relations, and in politics in general.

In the comparative study of the decline of ten, and fall of nine Empires, No. 10 being the US Empire, in 1995 (see the Prologue).

In this essay human rights encounter Durkheim’s le social—that sui generis beyond the sum of individuals.
Chapter
Any concept of peace includes the absence of direct violence between states, engaged in by military and others in general, and of massive killing of categories of humans in particular. But peace would be a strange concept if it does not include relations between genders, races, classes and families, and does not also include absence of structural v...
Chapter
Causality is, as often said, not a law but the form of a law; a discourse used to bring some understanding to a chaotic world. In that discourse the two words ‘cause’ (C) and ‘effect’ (E) are subject to rules of speech: E cannot precede C in time. And the connective relating them, an arrow, like C --> E, translated as ‘C causes/leads to/is followed...
Chapter
The first metaphor is health, like ‘peace is to violence what health is to disease’. A person can be healthy, a person, a group, a state, a nation, a region, a civilization can be peaceful. A world can be peaceful, at least better than today.
