Produktbeschreibung

Das englischsprachige Berghof Handbook ist das internationale Referenzwerk zum Thema Konflikttransformation. The Berghof Handbook offers both practitioners and scholars a systematic overview of the state-of-the-art of conflict transformation. In response to the contemporary challenges of violent conflict and to recent developments in the field of conflict transformation, the Berghof Handbook summarises and promotes dialogue about the "state of the art" in theory and practice of crisis prevention and non-violence, peace consolidation and the civil management of inter-group conflicts. The Berghof Handbook is designed primarily for practitioners seeking ideas and information for their own work and wishing to draw on the wealth of experience amassed by their colleagues in a range of regions and contexts. It is also intended for experts in politics, research and journalism.

Rezensionen

"Was die [...] Beiträge und den Band insgesamt authentisch wirken lassen, ist der Umstand, dass hier auch Autoren aus der Praxis zu Wort kommen. Das Berghof-Handbuch schließt somit [...] wirklich eine Lücke in der Verbindung von Theorie und Praxis." WeltTrends, 55/2007

"Der Sammelband stellt damit ein thematisch umfassendes und inhaltlich anspruchsvolles Werk dar, das v. a. durch seine überzeugende Verbindung von Theorie und Praxis besticht." ZPol - Zeitschrift für Politikwissenschaft, 01/2005
