Conflict by Sandra I Cheldelin
This textbook is dedicated to an analysis of the emergent role of conflict analysis and resolution. What can this interdisciplinary field contribute to our understanding of, solutions to, or transformations of some of the most pressing problems confronting human societies? The authors, a team of international experts with both academic and professional experience of the field, offer a broad range of geographical and disciplinary perspectives. Covering theory, research and practice, they provide a comprehensive typology of the types of conflict, and a through examination of influences - uctural, strategic and cultural - on conflict. They go on to explore the management and resolution of conflict, discussing negotiation, mediation and peacebuilding. This hopes to be a key text for undergraduates and postgraduates taking courses in the field, and also for professionals, both active and in training.
"The new edition of Conflict has been developed to reflect the evolving state of art in the discipline of conflict analysis and resolution.. It will prove useful as a general overview of the present state of the field, introducing students to the key concepts" Times Higher Education Supplement, September 2008
The authors are all based at ICAR (Institute for Conflict Analysis and Resolution) at George Mason University, Virginia.
