In Powerful Peace, J. Robert DuBois takes on a crucial,
unprecedented mission for a U.S. Navy SEAL: the relentless pursuit
of interpersonal and international peacemaking. With gut wrenching
candor and surprising moments of comedy, he narrates a personal
journey through decades of conflict, its often-absurd origins, its
ever-present innocent victims, and its potential solutions. Most
importantly, Robert delivers practical recommendations for private
citizens and policy makers alike. He offers rare context for
students of international relations, community leaders, and
soldiers bound for unfamiliar lands.
Powerful Peace is the unvarnished ground truth on face-to-face
engagements worldwide. Robert DuBois demonstrates that prevention
of hostile intent is far more necessary to genuine security than
the race for tactical or technological superiority. Whether
countering Soviets, terrorists, insurgents or improvised explosive
devices, he observes and reports on the fundamental similarities
behind hatreds. Ignorance and misunderstanding poison human
potential. Dignity and respect are powerful antidotes.
Powerful Peace is the fascinating story of human beings--in war
and peace and school and work and play--learning to better
understand others to avoid unnecessary conflict and enrich the
world. Seasoned by professional experience in more than thirty
countries, Robert has plainly "been there, done that..".yet his
insightful conclusions on fighting may surprise you.
