This new textbook introduces key mechanisms and issues in
international conflict management and engages students with a
comprehensive interdisciplinary approach to mitigating, managing,
and transforming international conflicts. The volume identifies key
historical events and international agreements that have shaped and
defined the field of international conflict management, as well as
key dilemmas facing the field at this juncture. The first section
provides an overview of key mechanisms for international conflict
management, such as negotiation, mediation, nonviolent resistance,
peacekeeping, peacebuilding, transitional justice, and
reconciliation. The second section tackles important cross-cutting
themes, such as technology, religion, the economy, refugees and
migration, and the role of civil society, examining how these
issues contribute to international conflicts and how they can be
leveraged to help address such conflicts. Each chapter includes a
brief historical overview of the evolution of the issue or
mechanism, identifies key theoretical and practical debates, and
includes case studies, discussion questions, website links, and
suggested further reading for further study and engagement. By
providing a mixture of theory and practical examples, this textbook
provides students with the necessary background to navigate this
interdisciplinary field. This volume will be of great interest to
students of international conflict management, conflict resolution,
peace studies, and international relations in general.
