From the Ground Up by Cynthia Sampson

The US State Department, the US Institute of Peace, and other governmental agencies now recognize that religious leaders, transnational religious movements, and faith-based NGOs are central players in the post-Cold War era of ethnic and religious conflict. The Mennonites, through the Mennonite Central Committee and its international Conciliation Service, have been leaders in this emerging area of expertise. This collection of new essays chronicles, analyses, and evaluates the Mennonite contribution to the new cultural paradigm in conflict resolution and peacebuilding theory and practice.
Cynthia Sampson is an asociate at the Institute for Peacebuilding at Eastern Mennonite University. John Paul Lederach is Professor of Conflict Studies and Sociology at Eastern Mennonite University.
