Mr. Lederach wanders from place to place, mentioning everything from spider web watchers to rock-hounding in theories that he himself continuesly undercuts. This, combined with a loose writing structure and an impressive vocabularly, made the book quite difficult to get through. I appreciated the ideas, not their execution. It was however, a good attempt at a field rich with possibility. Better luck next time. (  ) opinion8dsngr | Apr 22, 2007 | sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
John Paul Lederach's work in the field of conciliation and mediation is internationally recognized. As founding Director of the Conflict Transformation Program and Institute of Peacebuilding at Eastern Mennonite University, he has provided consultation and direct mediation in a range of situations from the Miskito/Sandinista conflict in Nicaragua to Somalia, Northern Ireland, the Basque Country, and the Philippines. His influential 1997 book Building Peace has become a classic in the discipline. This new book represents his thinking and learning over the past several years. He explores the evolution of his understanding of peacebuilding by reflecting on his own experiences in the field. Peacebuilding, in his view, is both a learned skill and an art. Finding this art, he says, requires a worldview shift. Conflict professionals must envision their work as a creative act - an exercise of what Lederach terms the "moral imagination."

Lederach says, “I am uneasy with the growing technique-oriented view
of change in settings of violence that seems to dominate much of
professional conflict resolution approaches”. He speaks of “invoking
the moral imagination... which is not found in perfecting or applying the techniques or the skills of a process... My feeling is that we have overemphasized the technical aspects and political content to the detriment of the art of giving birth to and keeping a process creatively alive". (pp 52 and 70) (
