A scholarly collection of timely essays on the behavioral science
of peace With contributions from experts representing a wide
variety of scholarly fields (behavioral and social sciences,
philosophy, environmental science, anthropology and economics),
Peace Ethology offers original essays on the most recent research
and findings on the topic of the behavioral science of peace. This
much-needed volume includes writings that examine four main areas
of study: the proximate causation of peace, the developmental
aspects of peace, the function and systems of peace and the
evolution of peace. The popular belief persists that, by nature,
humans are not pre-disposed to peace. However, archeological and
paleontological evidence reveals that the vast majority of our time
as a species has been spent in small hunter-gatherer bands that are
basically peaceful and egalitarian in nature. The text also reveals
that most of the earth's people are living in more peaceful
societies than in centuries past. This hopeful compendium of
essays: Contains writings from noted experts from a variety of
academic studies Offers a social-psychological perspective on the
causation of peaceful behavior Includes information on children's
peacekeeping and peacemaking Presents ideas for overcoming social
tension between police and civilians Provides the most recent
thinking on the behavioral science of peace Written for students
and academics of the behavioral and social sciences, Peace Ethology
offers scholarly essays on the development, nature, and current
state of peace.
