A practical guide to listening well in restorative justice programs
and any relationship. The Little Book of Listening is an
introduction to and practical guide for listening as an emergent
strategy for creating a transformed world. It presents radical
listening as an essential macro-skill, one that is essential in
forming “right relationships†with ourselves and others that
are the necessary prerequisite to all lasting forms of social
change. This is a collaborative book, constructed from the
contributions of twenty-six listeners from a wide variety of
backgrounds who have shared their strategies, experiences,
inspiration, and hopes for a transformed world through listening
justly and equitably. One of the primary goals of the book is to
offer practical tools for readers to develop the skills to listen
to themselves and others more effectively, drawing attention to the
barriers and filters that so often distract us from listening.
Another goal is to inspire readers through the personal stories of
how just listening has impacted the authors and invite readers to
adopt these approaches themselves. Finally, we aim for this text to
be a resource for practitioners in the fields of justicebuilding
and peacebuilding. Conversations are how humans explore new ideas
and reach new understandings: paradigms shift and the world is
changed by our communication with each other.i Whatever processes
are used, it is imperative that facilitators and participants
listen deeply, humbly, and attentively, without ego or agenda, to
themselves and to one another.Â
