In recent years, different regions of the world have been unfortunately experiencing an increase in violent acts within various communities. For example, the United States has seen an emergence of severe violence within schools over the past two decades. This tragic phenomenon is causing administrators and practitioners to rethink teaching techniques and implement concepts of violence prevention within schools and other social organizations. Preventing and Reducing Violence in Schools and Society is a collection of innovative research on the evolution and implementation of nonviolence concepts within social settings in order to repent oppression and violence among global communities. The book explores the effective diffusion of violence through masterful negotiation and mediation skills as well as mentoring, counseling, and related processes. While highlighting topics including nonviolent teaching, active shooter training, and LGBT-phobia, this book is ideally designed for UN, governments and their heads, politicians, NGOs, communities riddled with gang and other violence, schools, educational leaders, social organizations, community leaders, teachers, preachers, religious leaders, mediators, peace activists, law enforcement, researchers, and students seeking current research on contemporary nonviolence techniques to facilitate change in schools and other societal environments.

The Collaborative Body in Qualitative Research challenges normative philosophies that have frequently neglected the body’s place in research, and then illustrates how the body is essential for all meaning making. By ‘voicing the body’, the first part of this rebellious book problematizes how the body is used/assessed, yet often silenced in academic writing. This book then fluidly moves to celebrating the body through discussing taboo topics like sex/sexuality in friendship, underwear (knickers), ageing and death, as well as how a non-binary body moves in a heteronormative world. Through the lens of Bodyography, this book does research differently - illuminating how the body flourishes, excites knowledge, and is complicated when placed in a ‘screen’. This book celebrates a collaborative and arts-based approach. This book is a dialogue between The Bodies Collective with dialogic resonance sections between each chapter and art pieces throughout. This book will engage all scholars to do research differently. Anyone with a thirst to challenge normative practices in academia and wants research to be inspiring and playful will fall in love with this book.
