Peace Education
This work is intended for scholars and students interested in issues of peace education, reconciliation, and coexistence from several disciplines including social and political psychology, communication, education, political science, sociology, and philosophy.
Peace Education
Peace education is now well recognized within international legal instruments and within critical educational literature as an important aspect of education. Despite this, little attention has been given in the critical literature to the philosophical foundations for peace education and the rationale for peace education thus remains substantially an assumed one. This investigation explores some possible ethico-philosophical foundations for peace education, through an examination of five specific ethical traditions: 1) virtue ethics, whereby peace may be interpreted as a virtue, and/or virtue is interpreted as peacefulness, and peace education as education in that virtue; 2) consequentialist ...
Handbook on Peace Education
This handbook encompasses a range of disciplines that underlie the field of peace education and provides the rationales for the ways it is actually carried out .

Humanities Perspectives in Peace Education
In Humanities Perspectives in Peace Education: Re-Engaging the Heart of Peace Studies, scholar-teachers across a variety of humanities fields explore the content, methods, and pedagogies that are unique to their respective disciplines in contributing to the study of peace and justice. In recent decades, even as peace scholarship has burgeoned, many peace studies texts—including those that purport to be interdisciplinary in nature—have emphasized social science perspectives and, in some cases, have foregone exploration of the role of the humanities altogether in comprehensive peace education. While humanities scholars continue to stake out space for peace scholarship within their fields, ...

Universal Peace Education: a remedy for all ills
The book is about knowledge, awareness and practice for universally inherent five sheaths, body, vitality, mind, intellect and spirit. These five bodies are nourished by five elements, earth, air, water, fire and space. All these are in every man and woman without any discrimination everywhere for life-long perpetual integral manifestation to be human leading to peace. Methodology of universal peace education will be dialogue. In dialogue, teacher and taught both are learners. Both learn from each other. The access of universal peace education will be for all leaving none. Compensatory universal peace education will be for the existing generation deprived of this education for recovery of their physical, vital, mental, intellectual and spiritual health. Purely integral universal peace education will be for coming generations their five sheaths and elements are raw, pure, and very prone to be unfolded integrally to be human leading them to be peaceful.
Educating for Peace in a Time of Permanent War
What is the meaning of peace, why should we study it, and how should we achieve it? Although there are an increasing number of manuscripts, curricula and initiatives that grapple with some strand of peace education, there is, nonetheless, a dearth of critical, cross-disciplinary, international projects/books that examine peace education in conjunction with war and conflict. Within this volume, the authors contend that war/military conflict/violence are not a nebulous, far-away, mysterious venture; rather, they argue that we are all, collectively, involved in perpetrating and perpetuating militarization/conflict/violence inside and outside of our own social circles. Therefore, education about...
