Beskrivning

This updated second edition of The Palgrave Handbook of Global Approaches to Peace offers a comprehensive exploration of peace as a concept, policy, and practice, featuring thirty-nine chapters by leading and emerging scholars. The handbook examines theoretical frameworks, including cosmopolitanism, feminist perspectives, human security, Gandhian philosophy, and liberal peace, alongside domestic practices in Rwanda, Singapore, Canada, Russia, and China. Furthermore, new chapters address contemporary developments in peace studies and peace education, as well as the impact of artificial intelligence and specific peace-related challenges in East Asia (Japan), the Middle East, and South America. The handbook also analyzes the influence of regional and global institutions—the Arab League, ASEAN, the African Union, the EU, the ICC, the OECD, and the United Nations—on peace. Ultimately, by covering theoretical, disciplinary, domestic, regional, institutional, alternative, and transitional approaches, this comprehensive handbook stands as a critical resource for academics, policymakers, practitioners, and students dedicated to understanding and advancing peace in the twenty-first century.
