Now available in paperback, "Culture and International Conflict
Resolution" re-examines conflict resolution -- and particularly
problem--solving conflict resolution -- from a new perspective. The
book is a critical study of John Burton's work, and outlines an
alternative framework for the study of international conflict. It
provides an insight into the problems of conflict and conflict
resolution from a social constructionist angle. Väyrynen
argues that culture has a constitutive role in international
conflict and conflict resolution. Culture offers a grammar for
acting in and interpreting the world, and provides understandings
of conflict and its resolution. Theories which deny the importance
of culture fail to understand the ontological conditions of human
'being.' The book will be of interest to students of conflict
and peace studies, both advanced undergraduate and postgraduate, as
well as students of International Relations studying conflict
resolution.
