Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peacebuilding and reconciliation between groups and entire nations that share a violent past are among the toughest, yet most important, challenges for modern societies. Opposing perspectives, disagreements about the interpretation of historical events or even entirely different narratives too often impede processes of rapprochement. How can teaching history contribute to overcoming the demarcation lines of such narratives and resolving historical conflicts that are passed on from generation to generation or renewed, amplified and exploited for present political purposes? This volume comprises twelve case studies—from Central and Eastern Europe to South Africa, from the Middle East to East Asia—exploring stories about successes and failures in the never-ending struggle for peaceful coexistence. All of them ultimately reflect the fundamental question of our discipline: Can we learn from history?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Overcoming Church Conflict: Confessions of a Church Girl by Vanessa M. Cavett “Conflict tests your ability to endure the race,” says Vanessa M. Cavett in her book Overcoming Church Conflict: Confessions of a Church Girl. The book opens by delving into the history of the Black church in the United States and explores the role of Christianity. She reveals her own history as a Christian while giving testimony of her journey with Christ. Along the way, Cavett encounters the disruptive nature of envy within the church and details dramatic power struggles with deacons, missionaries, and even knife-wielding organists. Cavett keeps readers engaged as she tells the tale of her journey to find the right church that meets her spiritual needs. The book’s theme is overcoming adversity in the church, which is not where most people expect to find it. People look for love and acceptance in the church, but often find conflict. As a result, younger generations today are turning away from the church because it is not perfect and they face rejection. But Jesus said, “It is impossible but that offences will come,” and the church is no exception. Cavett explains that nothing in the earth realm is perfect, but encourages Christians to be fighters and overcome obstacles with the power of God. Cavett experienced church conflict and overcame it by God’s power, becoming a stronger Christian as a result. She encourages readers to understand there is a spiritual and a natural church. The first represents the body of Christ made of believers worldwide and the latter is the place believers gather to encourage each other and worship together. Jesus established the church; therefore, believers must not let the enemy cause them to abandon it because of evil forces placed there to distract them. Believers must remember the higher call of advancing God’s kingdom on earth. And they must be obedient to His word, which instructs them to assemble together in church and work to make it a place where Jesus Christ is exalted and His power is manifest. Cavett recommends this book to all pastors and youth leaders to distribute among youth and use as part of study groups. Overcoming Church Conflict centers around millennials, but is for all Christians, young and old, and especially for those who question the church’s purpose or relevance today. The book is a relatable, witty tale of worship, fellowship, and following God’s call.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To date, little has been published about the place of spirituality in working with survivors of intimate partner violence. Overcoming Conflicting Loyalties examines the intersection of faith and culture in the lives of religious and ethno-cultural women in the context of the work of FaithLink, a unique community initiative that encourages religious leaders and secular service providers to work together. The authors present the benefits of such cooperation by reporting the findings of three qualitative research studies. Individuals in secular and sacral services who work with victims of domestic violence, as well as academics in the fields of social work, psychology, and religious studies, will benefit from the insights, depth of experience, and range of voices represented in this valuable book. Irene Sevcik, Michael Rothery, Nancy Nason-Clark, and The Very Rev. Robert Pynn have brought their professional expertise and experiences to benefit FaithLink at different times and in different capacities. All of the authors live in Calgary except Nason-Clark, who lives in Fredericton. Sponsored by The Calgary Foundation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite considerable progress in research and practice in the constructive transformation of intractable conflicts beginning in the 1970s, many terribly destructive conflicts have recently erupted. New circumstances have emerged that have resulted in regressions. The contributions in this book examine many of the new challenges and obstacles to the transformation of intractable conflicts. It also offers an array of new and promising opportunities for constructive transformations. The book brings together analyses of U.S.-based conflicts with those from many regions of the world. International, intra-state, and local conflicts are explored, along with those that have been violent and non-violent. The diversity in disciplines among the authors provides a wide range of theoretical approaches to explaining how a variety of intractable conflicts can be transformed. Case studies of local, national, and transnational conflicts serve to illustrate this new landscape. These analyses are complemented by conceptual discussions relating to new conflict systems, actors, dynamics and strategies. Policy implications of findings are also presented.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discover how mindfulness can help you resolve the inevitable problems that arise in your personal and professional relationships in this “groundbreaking, creative” guide to Zen-based conflict resolution (Jan Chozen Bays) Conflict is going to be part of your life—as long as you have relationships, hold down a job, or have dry cleaning to be picked up. Bracing yourself against it won’t make it go away, but if you approach it consciously, you can navigate it in a way that not only honors everyone involved but makes it a source of deep insight as well. Seasoned mediator Diane Hamilton provides the skill set you need to engage conflict with wisdom and compassion, and even—sometimes—to be grateful for it. She teaches how to: • Cultivate the mirror-like quality of attention as your base • Identify the three personal conflict styles and determine which one you fall into • Recognize the three fundamental perspectives in any conflict situation and learn to inhabit each of them • Turn conflicts in families, at work, and in every kind of interpersonal relationship into win-win situations Full of practical exercises that can be applied to any kind of relationship, Everything Is Workable gives readers the tools they need to cultivate dynamic, vital, and effective relationships in their personal lives and at work.
