This volume addresses SDG 16, namely "Promote peaceful and inclusive societies for sustainable development, provide access to justice for all and build effective, accountable and inclusive institutions at all levels" and contains the description of a range of terms, which allows a better understanding and fosters knowledge.

Book excerpt: In a world plagued by the persistent echoes of violence and conflict, this profound exploration into the philosophy of Peace and pacifism emerges as a timely source of hope and transformation. In this book, the author reflects on the disheartening reality that, despite the twenty-first century's advancements, humanity continues to cling to destructive patterns. This book is a rallying cry for the resilience of the human spirit, advocating for a paradigm shift towards Peace, justice, and dialogue. It weaves together historical reflections, philosophical insights, and real-world examples to unravel the essence of pacifism - a belief that transcends the mere absence of war and envisions a world healed and intact. Through a collection of essays, quotes, speeches, and more, the author not only acknowledges the complexities of our world but also recognizes the challenges inherent in the pursuit of Peace. It is also acknowledged that there can be no external Peace if there is a lack of inner Peace within the individual. As you delve into these pages, you'll encounter the diverse tapestry of pacifist thought, from ancient philosophers to modern visionaries. The book serves as a manual for Peace, inviting introspection, dialogue, and action. It inspires a collective awakening to our potential as architects of Peace, urging us to dismantle structures perpetuating violence and fostering a shift in individual and collective consciousness. This work isn't just a dream; it's an invitation to turn dreams into reality. In a world yearning for Healing and Peace, this book extends a hand, urging us to embark on a shared journey towards a future where Peace isn't just a distant dream but a lived reality.
Book Synopsis Civil Society, Peace, and Power by : David Cortright
Download or read book Civil Society, Peace, and Power written by David Cortright and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2016-10-12 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Civil society plays an increasingly powerful role in the global landscape, emerging as key actors in preventing and managing conflict, and building more peaceful and sustainable societies . The multiple case studies featured in this volume illustrate the growth of civil society involvement in national, regional, and international peacebuilding policy. The focus is on multi-stakeholder, systems-based approaches to peacebuilding and human security that involve diverse civil society groups (NGOs, religious organizations, media, etc.), government agencies, intergovernmental organizations, and security forces. This unique comprehensive approach encompasses diverse stakeholders seeking to understand the drivers of conflict and the possibilities for working together to build peace. The book illustrates how the involvement of civil society can result in better informed, more inclusive, more accountable government decision making, and more effective peacebuilding policies. Importantly, a number of the case studies provide a gender perspective on peacebuilding and civil society issues, voicing and giving attention to women’s perspectives without being focused only on gender issues. Further, authors from the Global South offer the perspectives of those directly immersed in ongoing struggles for justice and peace.
