"Senior scholar at the Albert Einstein Institution of Boston, Massachusetts Gene Sharp and his team of like-minded researchers apply 50 years of history, academics, and practical experience to present Waging Nonviolent Struggle: 20th Century Practice and 21st Century Potential, a meticulous accounting of how nonviolent methodologies can combat dictatorships, war, genocide, and oppression. Waging Nonviolent Struggle is particularly valuable in its use of logic and close analysis of specific historical cases of nonviolent struggle to debunk common myths concerning the practice. Such myths include the contention that nonviolence is ineffective against dictatorships and genocide, or that nonviolent methodologies rely upon an appeal to the moral character of the opponent ....."--Midwest Book Reviews www.midwestbookreview.com

Waging Peace in Our Schools
Lantieri, Linda
1998   268 p.
ISBN: 0807031178
  
Select Online Source

While not the most recent in the literature, this could be one of the classics worth paying attention to. Some of the most prominent activists working in the fields of conflict resolution and emotional literacy argue that schools--as our children's last common public institution in a fractured time--must educate the heart as well as the mind. Linda Lantieri and Janet Patti show us how it can be done. They draw on research in social and emotional learning, as well as on their years of experience with thousands of kids and teachers through the Resolving Conflict Creatively Program--one of the largest and most successful of its kind in the country, serving over 150,000 children in more than 325 schools nationwide.

Waging Peace in Our Schools is news from the front--the essential primer on a movement that is transforming our schools. The book is a practical guide, filled with stories, voices, ideas, and advice. We see teachers using innovative techniques to create "peaceable classrooms," student mediators who are changing the lives of their schools, and the core curricula of conflict resolution and diversity education.

"Waging Peace in Our Schools is a model of emotional intelligence. . . . I hope that every teacher and parent reads this, and takes this superb advice to heart." --Daniel Goleman
