Educación para la paz
Tomando en cuenta el contexto de violencia generalizada que ha ido aumentando en la última década en el país, se hace necesario ahondar en la exploración de herramientas alternativas a las meramente punitivas que nos ayuden a reconstruir un tejido social que se ha visto lacerado por años de creciente criminalidad de la que pareciera no haber salida. En este contexto, se plantean algunas aproximaciones teórico-metodológicas que tienen como común denominador la construcción de la paz en la sociedad desde diversas disciplinas y áreas de conocimiento: estudios de paz, resolución de conflictos, educación para la paz, derechos humanos, filosofía, derecho, criminología, conflictología, estudios sánscritos de paz, entre otras. Así, cada capítulo de esta obra aborda la implementación de laboratorios de paz y prácticas no violentas en espacios educativos, en donde sus creadores describen los conceptos y las acciones que han llevado a cabo, desde diferentes disciplinas y enfoques filosóficos, con el objetivo de ayudar a descubrir a niños, niñas y jóvenes que la construcción de una paz sostenida en la sociedad puede ser alcanzada.
