The Language of Peace: Communicating to Create Harmony offers
practical insights for educators, students, researchers, peace
activists, and all others interested in communication for peace.
This book is a perfect text for courses in peace education,
communications, media, culture, and other fields. Individuals
concerned about violence, war, and peace will find this volume both
crucial and informative. This book sheds light on peaceful versus
destructive ways we use words, body language, and the language of
visual images. Noted author and educator Rebecca L. Oxford guides
us to use all these forms of language more positively and
effectively, thereby generating greater possibilities for peace.
Peace has many dimensions: inner, interpersonal, intergroup,
international, intercultural, and ecological. The language of peace
helps us resolve conflicts, avoid violence, and reduce bullying,
misogyny, war, terrorism, genocide, circus journalism, political
deception, cultural misunderstanding, and social and ecological
injustice. Peace language, along with positive intention, enables
us to find harmony inside ourselves and with people around us,
attain greater peace in the wider world, and halt environmental
destruction. This insightful book reveals why and how.
