This book serves as an important link between conflict resolution
practice and education by providing research from the unique
perspective and approach of the Arthur V. Mauro Centre for Peace
and Justice, one of the world's leading academic programs for PACS
research: storytelling, peacebuilding, and conflict transformation.
Each chapter presents original research in critical issues in the
field of PACS, and provides recent research for the future
development of the field and the education of its practitioners and
academics. The book has a wide audience targeting students at the
undergraduate, graduate, and post-graduate levels. It also extends
to those working in and leading community conflict resolution
efforts as well as humanitarian aid workers. Exploring the issues
facing the field provides a means by which academics, students, and
practitioners can develop theory, practice, pedagogy, and
methodology to confront the complexity of contemporary conflicts
while expanding opportunities for future research and practice.
Contributors to the book are recognized scholars and practitioners
in their respective fields. The authors' take a holistic approach
to the study, analysis, and resolution of conflict at the personal,
interpersonal, societal and cultural levels. The book is a
retrospective of the Mauro Centre and through its content, explores
the roots of a major contributor to PACS scholarship. The
scholarship represents those who come to the PACS field with a
diversity of ideas, approaches, disciplinary roots, and topic
areas, which speaks to the complexity, breadth, and depth needed to
apply and take account of conflict dynamics and the goal of peace.
This book reflects the unique model and approach of the Arthur V.
Mauro Centre for Peace and Justice at the University of Manitoba in
central Canada: conflict transformation, peacebuilding, and
storytelling. Based in the doctoral theses and in celebration of
the first decade of Canada's only doctoral program in PACS, this
volume, co-edited by three of the graduates of the program and
written by colleagues, presents and explores a number of these
issues while presenting new and leading research across the broad
spectrum of Peace and Conflict Studies.
