"This volume explores the evolution of theoretical and practical approaches to intervening in protracted conflicts, following the work of Herb Kelman. Interactive problem solving, as developed by Kelman and others, sought to increase understanding about the microprocesses of international relations. Kelman early on emphasised the centrality of an interactive approach for constructing new identities, new narratives, and new ways forward. Transforming conflict systems requires strategic attention to the interactions between agents of change that provide stability or induce shift. This volume on interactive conflict approaches includes both critical reflections and new ideas from scholar-practitioners who have developed, revised, and expanded these approaches. Contributors take up important issues, from the shape and likelihood of solutions in intractable conflicts, to how individuals can exist in realities with seemingly irresolvable inner and outer conflicts. The volume represents the best of current thinking about how the mechanisms, theoretical framework, and application of interactive problem solving should be moved into the twenty-first century context of increasing complexity, increasing uncertainty, and increasing polarisation. This book will be of interest to students of peace studies, conflict resolution and International Relations"--

Arvustused

Our field has seen much development in recent years, with concepts such as "inclusion" and the "local turn" having come to fore. But we grapple with what these ideas mean in practice. This book presents clear, readable analyses, which are both practical and theoretically informed. It is an essential read for anyone working on these questions today.

Peter Jones, Associate Professor of Public and International Affairs, and Executive Director of Ottawa Dialogue, University of Ottawa, Canada

This is an exciting book because the authors of the sixteen chapters are distinguished scholars from many countries, who met together with draft chapters focusing on the evolution of interactive problem-solving practices to overcome protracted conflicts. The result is an integrated set of important perspectives about many advances to such practices over time, in varying circumstances.

Louis Kriesberg, Maxwell Professor Emeritus of Social Conflict Studies, Professor Emeritus of Sociology, Syracuse University, USA

This book does more than assemble former students, colleagues and friends to offer us a Gedenkschrift to honor Herb Kelmans legacy. It brings together outstanding peace and conflict studies scholars and practitioners to engage in the future of learning about complexity thinking and system dynamics, areas that were championed by Kelman as he pursued knowledge to understand the perplexing challenges posed by protracted conflict. In this volume, the contributors build on Kelmans work to help us to understand better how systems can be shaped through sustained and meaningful understanding and engagement.

Pamina Firchow, Associate Professor of Coexistence and Conflict, Heller School for Social Policy and Management, Brandeis University

In extraordinary ways the composite contribution found in this volume helps us understand and engage more strategically with the bridges that connect sustained dialogue with systems change. As such, this volume offers both legacy and pathbreaking ideas, a much needed push at this moment globally with the rise of authoritarian impulses and the militarization of both civil and international conflict.
