An incisive collection of essays highlighting conflict and peace issues in the Global South, with coverage of theory, method, mediated, case-oriented, and innovative approaches
In Handbook of Conflict and Peace Communication, renowned communication and media scholar Dr. Sudeshna Roy delivers an authoritative exploration of a variety of critical conflicts in the world and a spectrum of approaches to peace communication.

Informative contributions from a collection of outstanding scholars, practitioners, and activists
Comprehensive explorations of past conflict communication theory in the context of contemporary theory
Practical tools to navigate complex local and global conflicts
In-depth examinations of strategies of peace communication from the margins that acknowledge and elevate solutions for and from the most vulnerable
Perfect for undergraduate and graduate students, scholars, and practitioners of peace and conflict studies, media studies, intercultural communication, human rights, and social justice, Handbook of Conflict and Peace Communication will also earn a place in the libraries of interdisciplinary studies involving philosophy, anthropology, political science, history, geography, economics, psychology, and others.
