Mediation in the Asia-Pacific Region
$121.00
Description
This book examines mediation in connection with peacebuilding in the Asia-Pacific region, providing practical examples which either highlight the weaknesses within certain mediation approaches or demonstrate best-practice.
The authors explore the extent to which current ideas and practices of mediation in the Asia-Pacific region are dominated by Western understandings and critically challenge the appropriateness of such thinking. Featuring a range of case studies on Fiji, Vanuatu, Papua New Guinea, Malaysia, Vietnam, China, Singapore, Indonesia, the Philippines and Thailand, this book has three main aims:
- To challenge dominant Western practices and ways of thinking on mediation that currently are being imposed in the Asia-Pacific region;
- To develop culturally-fluent and socially just mediation alternatives that build upon local, traditional or religious approaches;
- To situate mediation within ideas and practices on peacebuilding.
Making a unique contribution to peace and conflict studies literature by explicitly linking mediation and peacebuilding practices, this book is a vital text for students and scholars in these fields.
