Social psychology has many vital contributions to make to the understanding of conflict and equally to the resolution of conflict. The eighteen chapters in this volume provide an up-to-date review of the major psychological contributions to conflict theory. The authors represent a variety of countries and opinions and their aim is for this volume to lead to a better understanding of global and intergroup conflict.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
`Well organized and written in a clear way... helpful for students initiating their investigation into the area of social conflicts... Academicians can also profit from the book for a deeper study and systematization of their ideas... it could be of great help [to practitioners] if they decide to question and think twice about their negotiation, mediation and arbitration practices. Students, academicians and practitioners will not regret having spent thirty five pounds on a book which they will turn to more than once when studying social conflicts' - The International Journal of Conflict Management
`Excellent contributions... several very interesting empirical studies can be enjoyed' - Political Studies
