Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This issue of the Unesco Yearbook focuses on World War II, a war which raises a number of issues for peace research and for social science research in general. One issue concerns the extent of the war which, although centered in Europe, also involved large parts of North Africa and Southeast Asia as well. Conflict outside of Europe can be traced to underlying problems of colonization and decolonization. In Europe, the war can be related to the aftermath of World War I and the subsequent inability of the League of Nations to arbitrate between opposing interests. The economic depression of the 1930s and the rise of fascism are also key factors; the rise of fascism, in turn, can be traced in part to the desire on the part of Germany and Italy to retrieve ingredients of their cultural past. In Japan, however, militarism was incurred less by the rise of fascism, than by Japan's semifeudalized, militarized industrial development. Perhaps the most significant issue is the watershed nature of World War II, which was marked by the impact of the atomic bomb in changing the nature and implications of warfare and by the emergence of the United States and the Soviet Union as major powers with new alliances which drastically altered the geopolitical balance of power. The essays in this collection represent the contributions of international authorities on these critical issues. They deal with European currents of war such as the rise of fascism; the psychological mobilization of the German people; the policies of the Third Reich towards Jews, Gypsies, and Slavs; the Polish Resistance; the impact of the German and Italian occupation of North Africa; and Irish neutrality. They also treat movements in Asia, including the impact of militarism on Japanese society before and during the war; China's resistance against Japan and the founding of a new China; and the impact of the war on independence movements in Asia. The final sections of the volume contain the 1985 update of Unesco activities relating to peace and disarmament, and regional and national develolpments. The international perspectives of this volume's contributors make this a valuable contribution to peace studies and the study of the impact of World War II. It will provide enlightening reading for political scientists and for courses in peace studies and government policy.

Book Peace and Conflict Studies

Book excerpt: Ho-Won Jeong explains and assesses major approaches to dealing with ethnic conflict, communal violence, inter-state war and social injustice. The book analyses not only the sources of violence and conflict, but also how to manage and prevent them. As peace is relevant to improvement in human well-being and the future survival of humanity, the volume encompasses a variety of themes, ranging from alternative security policies, methods of peaceful settlement, human rights, self-determination, environmental politics, global governance and non-violence. Reflecting on the current thinking and drawing lessons from the past, the book can be considered as the most authoritative introduction to the field since the end of the Cold War.

Book Unesco Yearbook on Peace and Conflict Studies 1987

Download or read book Unesco Yearbook on Peace and Conflict Studies 1987 written by Unesco and published by Greenwood. This book was released on 1989-02-17 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This the nineth edition of the Unesco Yearbook focuses on the effects of the arms race. The first section, a product of research undertaken at the International Peace Research Institute in Oslo, Norway (PRIO), examines the impact of armaments on areas of special concern to Unesco: education, science and technology, and culture and communication. The second section deals with the effects of the arms race, the arms trade, and technology transfer in developing countries, where armaments are proliferating at a higher rate than in industrially advanced countries. The third section examines the impact of the arms race on national reconstruction in developing countries. The fourth section analyzes the stance the United Nations has taken toward disarmament since its creation, from the concept of general and complete disarmament to a comprehensive program of step-by-step disarmament. Finally, as in previous yearbooks, the final section is a brief summary of Unesco activities in the fields of peace and disarmament and regional developments around the world.

Book Handbook of Peace and Conflict Studies

Download or read book Handbook of Peace and Conflict Studies written by Charles Webel and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2007-03-12 with total page 575 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This major new Handbook provides a cutting-edge and transdisciplinary overview of the main issues, debates, state-of-the-art methods, and key concepts in peace and conflict studies today. The fields of peace and conflict studies have grown exponentially since being initiated by Professor Johan Galtung half a century ago. They have forged a transdisciplinary and professional identity distinct from security studies, political science, and international relations. The volume is divided into four sections: understanding and transforming conflict creating peace supporting peace peace across the disciplines. Each section features new essays by distinguished international scholars and professionals working in peace studies and conflict resolution and transformation. Drawing from a wide range of theoretical, methodological, and political positions, the editors and contributors offer topical and enduring approaches to peace and conflict studies. The Handbook of Peace and Conflict Studies will be essential reading for students of peace studies, conflict studies and conflict resolution. It will also be of interest and use to practitioners in conflict resolution and NGOs, as well as policy makers and diplomats.

Book UNESCO Yearbook on Peace and Conflict Studies  1984

Download or read book UNESCO Yearbook on Peace and Conflict Studies 1984 written by and published by Greenwood Publishing Group. This book was released on 1986 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The "1984 Yearbook" is divided into three sections, all of which will be of interest to peace researchers. The first section deals with questions of race and ethnicity, a particularly timely subject since racism and ethnic discrimination have been and remain a major source of conflict. The articles in Approaches to Race and Ethnicity provide readers with an overview of recent research and the theories which dominate that research. The second section, Approaches to Peace, deals with disarmament. Here Johan Galtung goes beyond his former theories to discuss differing scenarios for disarmament. Yet another section deals with settlement procedures and multilateral negotiations. The case study of Latin America is particularly informative because of the boundary disputes that exist between a number of states. This section also contains a useful annotated bibliography of multilateral negotiations and the role of third parties. The volume concludes with a section of reports of Unesco meetings and institutional developments concerning peace research.
