Book excerpt: "This volume contains articles by distinguished scholars and practitioners on the role of cooperation in non-violent management and the reduction of conflict. In all areas of conflict, namely political; ethnic; resource; fiscal, and environmental, it is argued that a cooperative and not unilateral action is most effective. The articles address topics such as the Global Peace Index, language as a tool of reconciliation, decentralization, and civil-military approaches and present case studies from across the world. This volume discusses how negotiation, mediation and arbitration lead to a more win-win solution and is essential reading for scholars in peace science, especially those interested in the mechanics of peace and in ensuring its sustainability."--P.
