The 1983 Unesco Yearbook takes a more theoretical approach to the
subject of peace and conflict research than previous editions. The
first section, Trends and Approaches to Peace and Conflict Studies,
is itself divided into three parts, beginning with two
socio-psychological views of perceptions of threat and attitude
formation in societies and among individuals. This is followed by
the results of a study which used content analysis to relate
perceptions of threat to the arms race and examined the use of mass
media to shape those perceptions. The second part continues the
debate begun in the 1982 yearbook over the notion of security
itself, relating it to international legal and economic problems in
general and perceived threats and corresponding conceptions of
security in Africa, the Middle East, and Europe. Theoretical and
Bibliographical Surveys provides sources and material on peace and
conflict research. The report of the Unesco meeting on Different
Perceptions of Threat and Conceptions of Security opens the final
section. The yearbook ends with a brief discussion of the newly
formed Peruvian Peace Research Association.
