This book explores the challenges of transforming the violent
conflict between the State of Israel and the Palestinians into just
peace. There are many challenges involved in the bottom-up
transformation of the violent structures that sustain the State of
Israel's occupation of Palestinian territory. This book examines
these structures as it assesses the actors and strategies that are
contributing to the termination of cycles of violence and
oppression. Consisting of contributions from both peace
practitioners and academics who have conducted research within
Israel and the occupied territory, the volume utilises a
multidisciplinary perspective to examine promising strategies for
conflict transformation in Israel and the occupied Palestinian
territory. Moreover, it spells out the types of nonviolent strategy
that are being used to expose and undermine occupation structures,
and surveys the manner in which a variety of key actors are working
towards the transformation of the ongoing conflict. As a whole, the
volume presents a proposal for the transformation of the conflict
between Palestinians and the State of Israel that embraces the
constructive potential of conflict, engages with power asymmetry,
and pushes for justice and accountability. This book will be of
much interest to students of conflict resolution, peace studies,
Middle Eastern studies, the Arab-Israeli conflict, and IR in
general.

International Peacebuilding offers a concise, practical and
accessible introduction to the growing field of peacebuilding for
students and practitioners. This new textbook comprises three
parts, each dealing with a key aspect of peacebuilding: Part I
defines the core concepts and theoretical discussions that provide
the philosophical grounds for contemporary peacebuilding
activities. Part II divides the procedures of peacebuilding into
three phases and examines some of the important features of each
phase. Part III examines the key areas of the practice of
peacebuilding. The volume approaches peacebuilding from the
viewpoints of individual actors or institutions, introducing a
range of theoretical discussions with which students can critically
examine contemporary peacebuilding practice, as well as presenting
detailed case studies for key issues highlighted in the text. In
doing so, the book aims to provide more concrete ideas on how
peacebuilding programmes are planned and implemented in the field
and which major issues should be addressed by peacebuilding
practitioners. This book will be essential reading for all students
of peacebuilding, conflict transformation and post-conflict
reconstruction, and recommended reading for students of
international organisations, international security and IR in
general.

This analysis of the aftermath of earthquakes in Japan, Turkey and
India reveals important insights into how the outcome of each was
affected by the different styles of state-society relationships.
Using a comparative approach the book also seeks to draw out
patterns and lessons that can be applied more generally to
societies in the aftermath of such events. The result is a
groundbreaking work that will be of major importance to all those
whose work involves them in dealing with the aftermath of disasters
and major conflict
