“A gift to societies all over the world.” —Nico Koopman, Vice-rector for Social Impact, Transformation and Personnel, Stellenbosch University, South Africa. “This volume comes at the right time. … May this book inspire many to find new trust that a different world is possible!” —Heinrich Bedford-Strohm, Moderator of the WCC central committee “This superb volume … is to be welcomed by all scholars and practitioners.” —William Storrar, Center of Theological Inquiry in Princeton, USA In its second edition, this extended and revised volume brings together alternative and innovative approaches in conflict resolution. With traditional military intervention repeatedly contributing to instability and violence, the study of alternative approaches has become imperative. Can forgiveness help heal relationships in post-apartheid South Africa? How can art assist dealing with ‘unrememberable’ events such as the genocide in Rwanda? What transformational resources do women offer in contexts of massive human rights violations? The aim of this edited volume is twofold: to provide and encourage critical reflection of the approaches presented here and to explore concrete improvements in conflict resolution strategies. In its interdisciplinary and international outlook, this work combines the tried-and-tested approaches from conflict resolution experts in academia, NGOs and civil society, making it an invaluable tool for academics and practitioners alike. Christine Schliesser is Senior Lecturer at the Institute for Social Ethics at Zurich University and Director of studies at the Center for Faith and Society at Fribourg University, Switzerland. Martin Leiner is Chair of systematic theology and ethics at Jena University, Germany. . |

1996. Americans who lived between the Revolution and Civil War felt the brunt of resounding and sometimes frightening changes, which together eventually influenced the political culture of early America. In this lively study, Robert E. Shalhope examines one of the changes most difficult to gauge and most controversial among students of the period—the rise and triumph of liberal individualism in America—and explores its impact on political culture.Taking Bennington, Vermont, and its environs as a case study, Shalhope untangles the clash among three competing elements in the community—the egalitarian communalism of the Strict Congregationalists; the democratic individualism of the revolutionary Green Mountain Boys; and the hierarchical authority of the community's Federalist gentlemen of property and standing. None of these players anticipated (and indeed did not wish for) the result—the emergence of democratic liberalism. Shalhope writes of class tension, economic competition, and religious differences—and ultimately of cultural conflict and political partisanship—and yet throughout uses individual life experiences to give the narrative piquancy and to emphasize the significance of seemingly small, personal decisions. Shalhope thus demonstrates how the private lives of ordinary people played a role in the settlement of public issues.As an account of a single town and how its residents responded to change, Bennington and the Green Mountain Boys supplies a fascinating microcosmic view of the larger story of how liberal America came to be. |
