Aims & Scope

This unique journal is guided by the vision of a world in which peaceful means of resolving conflict prevail over violent ones and in which equity and social justice are hallmarks of all relations--family, community, national, and international. Its scholarly articles cover a wide array of topics, including the diverse causes and consequences of war and other forms of destructive conflict, as well as peace-making and reconciliation, prevention, and sustainable development. Issues about children and family, ethnicity, and feminism have been prominent in articles about both direct and structural violence. The journal publishes a mixture of empirical, theoretical, clinical, and historical work, as well as policy analyses, book reviews, and bibliographic essays.
