Free Downloads Constructive Conflicts: From Escalation To Resolution
This comprehensive and highly regarded book provides a framework for analyzing diverse social conflicts. The fourth edition of Constructive Conflicts maintains the book’s synthesis of theories about conflict, with key updates throughout. These include a more reader-friendly first chapter, new examples such as the Arab Spring, expanded discussions of recovery from violence and oppression, of reconciliation, and of moral concerns, and new discussions of social media and other ways conflicts are waged.Constructive Conflicts draws from relevant academic disciplines and empirical analyses of diverse conflicts to discuss the emergence, escalation, de-escalation, transformation, and settlement of conflicts. Throughout, the authors examine the strategies that partisans and intermediaries can use to minimize the destructiveness of conflicts and foster constructive ways to wage and resolve them.

This was the most difficult Ebook I have ever used. It did not have a table of contents that was searchable. It did not save my book marks, in any searchable way. I spent more time trying to figure out where I was, and needed to read to (for a class) than I should have.It did save the last page I was on, but if I was doing research it got all messed up.The book use also a difficult read. Long sentences and deep concepts combined with high level vocabulary.
It's an excellent book talking about how conflicts manifest themselves and how to overcome them. I read this for my conflict studies class and it was so incredibly useful! Anyone interested in large-scale conflicts should check this out
GREAT to read. I am a conflict major but this book can apply to anyone with any field of interest.
I feel like this book is too long winded.
