Making peace on the ground is challenging enough, however teaching how to make peace in the classroom is also challenging and requires different and certain mastery. Teaching Peace and Conflict Studies is a highly needed resource for everyone who plans to engage in peace education and conflict resolution not only at the university level but its lessons and recommendations on how to be an effective instructor/teacher are applicable to many other educational settings. The authors managed to tackle the core dilemmas that face instructors who always struggle to convey the complexity of peacemaking due to shifting context, ethical considerations, power dynamics, etc. The book offers guidelines and insightful frameworks on how to be an effective and ethical instructor of peace. -- Mohammed Abu-Nimer, American University, DC, US This volume provides a unique overview of key challenges and opportunities in teaching PACS at university level. It offers concrete examples of pedagogic approaches combined with honest appraisals of their respective virtues and limitations. This is all done within a clear value-base which should lie at the heart of PACS. -- Omar Grech, University of Malta This is a much-needed book for a growing and vibrant field. It is a magnificent example of reflective practice and draws on extensive classroom experience. The book is alert to the challenges of teaching sensitive topics, applied teaching, and of the need to address issues of diversity and inclusion. It is highly recommended. -- Roger Mac Ginty, Durham University, UK
