This work examines the far-reaching influence of Herbert Kelman, a psychologist who is both a scientist and a peacemaker. Kelman is renowned for his contributions to the study of social influence in social psychology as well as to international conflict resolution and the peace research movement.
This volume explores the evolution of theoretical and practical approaches to intervening in protracted conflicts, following the work of Herb Kelman. Interactive problem solving, as developed by Kelman and others, sought to increase understanding about the microprocesses of international relations.

For the most part, groups and nations have blamed competition for scarce and coveted resources as an important source of conflict, claiming that resolution depends on mutual agreement concerning how to divide these resources. The present volume focuses on the removal of psychological barriers (e.g., lack of trust, feelings of victimization, perceived lack of power) as a way to end conflict. Social psychology is uniquely equipped, both theoretically and methodologically, to deal with this challenge.
This collection brings a new perspective to research in social cognition. It assembles 15 chapters aiming to provide an innovative and integrative analysis of the phenomenon of human knowledge.
