Abstract:
"The rise of peace education both in scholarship and in practice has yielded numerousdocuments, websites, and publications with often divergent perspectives on what thefield is, does, and means. The Encyclopedia of Peace Education provides a comprehensiveoverview of the scholarly developments in the field to date, so as to provide acommon denominator for the various actors involved in advancing peace educationinternationally. Thus, this edited volume serves as an essential reference guide thattraces the history and emergence of the field, highlights foundational concepts, contextualizes peace education practice across international and disciplinary borders, and suggests new directions for peace educators.From core conceptual perspectives to the moral and spiritual foundations of thefield to the role of the United Nations, the Encyclopedia grounds peace education in a solid theoretical and practicalframework through the writings of the field's most renowned scholars. This volume will target undergraduate andgraduate students as well as scholars and practitioners working in international and non-governmental organizationsin the field of peace education." -- Publisher's information
