This book explores the interdisciplinary, multi-method arena of peace studies and shows students and professors how the field has evolved. It is dedicated to bringing students face to face with the grave injustices and violence in the contemporary world, and equipping them with the tools to work for transformational change. Taking a critical perspective, activist authors probe contested terrain including teaching social justice from a place of privilege, decolonializing pedagogies, experiential approaches to global citizenship, and community organizing. Black, LGBT, and environmental perspectives are represented. Games and simulations, storytelling, experiential integrated learning, and critical thinking approaches are employed. The book concludes with a reflection on the place of Peace and Justice Studies in academia, and raises provocative questions about the direction of pedagogy and research in the field.
