Purchase options and add-ons

This volume examines the many dimensions of dialogue as a key driver of peaceful personal and social change. While most people agree on the value of dialogue, few delve into its meaning or consider its full range. The essays collected here consider dialogue in the context of teaching and learning, personal and interpersonal growth, and in conflict resolution and other situations of great change. Through these three themes, contributors from a wide variety of perspectives consider the different forms dialogue takes, the goals of the various forms, and which forms have been most successful or most challenging. With its expansive approach, the book makes an original contribution to peace studies, civic studies, education studies, organizational studies, conflict resolution studies, and dignity studies.

Editorial Reviews

Review

This vibrant, insightful volume sheds new light on dialogue processes that serve as the DNA of peacebuilding and help bridge the chasms of deeply divided societies. The book is especially groundbreaking in its focus on the links between "inner peace," including dynamics such as compassion and dignity, and broad social change. It is this constant interplay between transformation of the self and transformation of society that gives dialogue its tensile strength, and the authors capture these dynamics compellingly. In an increasingly polarized world, this book offers hope, and a reflection on how we can change society, and ourselves.

-- Melanie Greenberg, Managing Director, Peacebuilding of Humanity United, and former Chief Executive Officer of the Alliance for Peacebuilding

This set of chapters on the use of dialogue in peacebuilding is powerfully informative and beautifully written. Engaging in dialogue is challenging work, and this fine book provides substantial help.

-- Nel Noddings, Lee L. Jacks Professor of Education, Emerita, Stanford University, author of Caring: A Feminine Approach to Ethics and Moral Education and Peace Education: How We Come to Love and Hate War

This book takes the reader through its thirteen chapters with a comprehensive look at the concept of dialogue, with the basic treatise being that the complexities of dialogue can, in a human and value-oriented framework, form the basis of transformation, intra-personally, interpersonally and globally.... The reader is reminded that true dialogue differs from conversation, as it goes much deeper, requires much more empathy, as well as an intense "other" focus.
