商品描述

This book fulfills a long-standing gap in the global literature on educating for peace. In documenting the reflections of the world's leading teachers of peace, including some of the field's founders, the book sheds light on both the process and the products that have brought the study of peace to its fifty-year mark. The examination of the dynamic connections between peacemaking, education, individual development, and widespread social change is chronicled through examples from the USA, Japan, China, India, Pakistan, Germany, Argentina, Colombia, Trinidad, New Zealand, Mexico and more, and charts the words and work of scholar-activists including the late Betty Reardon and the granddaughter of Mohandas Gandhi, South Africa's Ela Gandhi. Together, the essays represent, in the words (from the Foreword) of United Nations University for Peace Rector Francisco Rojas Aravena, "a colossal instrument to reaffirm dialogue over force."

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書填補了全球和平教育文獻中的一個長期空白。透過記錄世界上主要和平教師的反思，包括一些該領域的創始人，這本書揭示了使和平研究達到五十年里程碑的過程和成果。書中通過來自美國、日本、中國、印度、巴基斯坦、德國、阿根廷、哥倫比亞、特立尼達、新西蘭、墨西哥等地的例子，探討了和平創造、教育、個人發展和廣泛社會變革之間的動態聯繫，並記錄了包括已故的貝蒂·里爾登（Betty Reardon）和甘地（Mohandas Gandhi）的孫女南非的艾拉·甘地（Ela Gandhi）在內的學者-活動家的言辭和工作。這些文章共同代表了聯合國和平大學校長弗朗西斯科·羅哈斯·阿拉維納（Francisco Rojas Aravena）在前言中的話，稱其為「一個巨大的工具，以重申對話而非武力。」
