About this book

Researchers, activists, and educators draw inspiration from the radical thought of Lorenzo Milani to invite readers to explore the intricacies, logistics, ethics and pedagogy of conflict and peace as played out in a number of domains, including religion, education, gender, sexuality, democracy, art, sociology and philosophy.

Reviews

"This is a book with a cornucopia of theoretical, theological and philosophical positions that will definitely satisfy the classicist and the intellectually minded. The book honors a practitioner of dialogue, negotiation, and conflict resolution, but at the same time uses some of the different experiences in which Milani was involved to move in the direction of a cosmopolitan social movement for international peace." - Carlos Alberto Torres, Director, Paulo Freire Institute and Associate Dean for Global Programs, University of California-Los Angeles, USA; President, World Council of Comparative Education Societies
