The Contested Role of Education in Conflict and Fragility

ISBN: 9789463000093 出版年：2015 页码：274 Zehavit Gross Lynn Davies Brill

This book brings together new thinking on education’s complex and evolving role in conflict and fragility. The changing nature of conflict, from inter- to intra-state, and with shifting geopolitical power balances, demands a reconceptualization of where education is positioned. Claims that education on its own can be an agent of conflict transformation are disputed. Deliberate attempts at peace education are not without critics and controversies.
