Abstract

In antiquity, it was not only Aristotle who assumed the people are more to be understood in relation to one another than as individual or solitary constructs. Friendship was vital to figures wuch as Aristotle, Plato and Socrates, because it supplied the tpe of bonding or fellowship without which they supposed no society could survive - a person ufil for communal life, for Aristotle, must be either a beast or a god. This examination considers the changing attitudes to friendship since antiquity and notes that almost no major modern philosopher has expounded friendship as an ideal for society.

Abstract

This book focuses on how Indigenous knowledge and methodologies can contribute towards the decolonisation of peace and conflict studies (PACS). It shows how Indigenous knowledge is essential to ensure that PACS research is relevant, respectful, accurate, and non-exploitative of Indigenous Peoples, in an effort to reposition Indigenous perspectives and contexts through Indigenous experiences, voices, and research processes, to provide balance to the power structures within this discipline. It includes critiques of ethnocentrism within PACS scholarship, and how both research areas can be brought together to challenge the violence of colonialism, and the colonialism of the institutions and structures within which decolonising researchers are working. Contributions in the book cover Indigenous research in Aotearoa, Australia, The Caribbean, Hawai'i, Israel, Mexico, Nigeria, Palestine, Philippines, Samoa, USA, and West Papua. Dr. Kelli Te Maihāroa (Waitaha, Ngāti Rārua, Te Ātiawa) has held leadership roles at the Otago Polytechnic as Tumuaki: Rakahau Māori / Director of Māori Research and Kaihautū: Te Kāhui Whetū Lead / Capable Māori, working with Iwi Māori throughout Aotearoa, New Zealand. She is an active member within her whānau, Iwi and local Māori community. She is a mokopuna of Te Maihāroa, the last southern Māori prophet and tohuka (expert tribal specialist). Dr. Michael Fusi Ligaliga is a lecturer and researcher in the School of Māori and Pacific Indigenous Studies at the University of Otago in Dunedin, Aotearoa, New Zealand. He teaches Pacific Island issues, indigenous leadership and peace and conflict in the Pacific. He has acted as Interim Director of the David O. McKay Centre for Intercultural Understanding at Brightham Young University Hawai'i. Dr. Heather Devere is Director of Practice at the Te Ao o Rongomaraeroa/The National Centre for Peace and Conflict Studies, University of Otago in Aotearoa, New Zealand.

Abstract

This Handbook represents an unprecedented exploration of the positive peace platform. It permits a comprehensive appreciation of the breadth of positive peace that engages with nonviolence, environmental sustainability, social justice and positive relationships scholarship. The work serves as a one-stop shop for scholar/practitioners interested in locating their inquiry and outputs in the field of positive peace and provides readers from a multitude of disciplines and academic departments with a comprehensive overview of the multiplicity of positive peace research in one location. In doing so, the Handbook of Positive Peace securely demarcates and recognizes the positive peace platform in social scientific and humanities academic disciplines.
