Book excerpt: "Does one honor one's country or one's heart?" Malka Marom explores this classic dilemma in her stunningly powerful first novel, an extraordinary tale of people caught up in a violent and seemingly endless historical conflict, compelled by love and grief to transcend it. "Sulha" tells the story of Leora, who, twenty years after her husband was killed in the Sinai War, is empowered by law to decide whether or not to allow her only son to serve high-risk duty as his father did. As Abraham was so severely tested, so is Leora with her son's fate in her hands. Charged with this burden, Leora leaves her uneasy exile in Toronto and ventures to Sinai. In the remote and treacherous mountain region of Sinai, Leora encounters a Bedouin clan, which offers her a glimpse of the other: the mysterious Arab world that so fascinated her as a child, the enemy that her son might face. And, indeed, mounting danger and mystery pervade the air of the Bedouin compound. "But are these people really the enemy?" "Is sulhaOCoforgiveness, reconciliation, peaceOConot possible here?" The modern Israel to which Leora then travels offers no clear answers and a deep enmity towards her. To her former compatriots, she is the otherOCooutsider, exile, even a deserter from the land to which her husband gave his life to defend. "Sulha "is the story of one woman's search for the answer to her son's future, and through it the reconciliation of her own fragmented past. In the process, it explores the interlocking and sometimes irreconcilable boundaries of love and loyaltyOCoto a person, a people, a land. This updated eBook edition of Sulha has been enhanced with an extensively annotated appendix of photographs taken by the author while she lived and roamed the desert with the Bedouins, as well as a series of questions designed as conversation starters for book clubs."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inter- and intra-clan conflicts in Northern Israel pit hundreds against each other in revenge cycles that take years to resolve and impact the entire community. The Sulha is a Shari’a-based traditional conflict resolution process that works independently of formal legal systems and is widely practiced to manage such conflicts in the north of Israel, as well as throughout the Muslim and Arab worlds. The Sulha process works by effecting a gradual attitudinal transformation, from a desire for revenge to a willingness to forgive, through restoration of the victim’s clan sense of honour. Muslim/Arab Mediation and Conflict Resolution examines the process of Sulha, as practiced by the Arab population of northern Israel, where it plays a central role in the maintenance of peace among Muslims, Christians, and Druze alike. It presents detailed analysis of every stage of this at times protracted process. It uses interviews with victims, perpetrators, Sulha practitioners, community leaders and lawyers, along with statistical analysis to examine how Sulha affects people’s lives, how various sectors of society impact the practice, and how it coexists with Israel’s formal legal system. Furthermore, it examines how Sulha compares to Western dispute resolution processes. This book offers the first comprehensive exploration of the entire Sulha process, and is a valuable resource for students and scholars of Middle East studies, Islamic studies and conflict resolution.

Book excerpt: Christians are called to be peacemakers in a world rife with conflict, but how should Christians respond when the source of strife is not outside the church but within it? Built on an in-depth analysis of three Palestinian church splits, this text examines the cultural and theological implications of intra-church conflict in Arab evangelical communities in Israel. Translating Miroslav Volf’s formative theology of reconciliation into her contemporary Palestinian context, Dr Rula Khoury Mansour provides a critical evaluation of both Volf’s theory and Palestinian peacemaking models. Through her research and analysis, Dr Mansour develops a Middle Eastern theology of reconciliation and encourages congregations around the world to develop greater cultural and theological awareness in their quest to experience lasting peace within their churches and wider communities.

Book excerpt: This book examines the Arabic conflict resolution method known as "sulha." In this process, notable male elders mediate conflicts between and within Arab communities. A lengthy process of political jockeying culminates in a ceremony that peaks when "enemies" shake hands and publicly forgive the crimes of the other. The reality of actual sulha deviates considerably from the ideal, but both the official framework and the actual events point to a deep seated valorization of peace and reconciliation in Israeli-Palestinian society.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a world torn by conflict, from neighborhood disputes to international wars, this groundbreaking book offers hope and practical solutions through the power of grassroots mediation. Drawing on more than 100 case studies from six continents, it demonstrates how local, community-driven peacebuilding efforts can transform societies, save lives, and foster prosperity. Discover for example how Grassroots Mediation works for peace in: · Colombia Peace Communities · Israel-Palestine Grassroots Peace Initiatives · Northern Ireland - Community Restorative Justice Programs · Philippines - Barangay Justice System · Rwanda - Community Reconciliation Efforts · Somalia Grassroots Peace Initiatives (EWERN and Peace Caravans) · South Sudan's Youth-Led Ceasefire Monitoring Mechanisms This comprehensive guide explores: · The theoretical foundations of grassroots mediation · Creative approaches using art, sports, and technology · The crucial roles of women and youth in peacebuilding · Economic initiatives that turn adversaries into partners · Cultural practices that foster reconciliation Whether you're a community leader in a conflict zone, a policymaker seeking innovative solutions, or a citizen passionate about building peace, this book provides the tools, inspiration, and evidence-based strategies to make a difference. Learn how Grassroots Mediators: · Initiate dialogue in divided communities · Build trust across ethnic, religious, and political lines · Empower marginalized voices in peace processes · Create sustainable structures for long-term peace · Adapt global best practices to your local context Featuring insights from renowned peacebuilders like Liberia's Leymah Gbowee, Kenya's Dekha Ibrahim Abdi, Guatemala's Rigoberta Menchú Tum, and Notre Dame's John Paul Lederach, this book bridges theory and practice, offering a roadmap for transforming conflicts at all levels of society. From the favelas of Rio to the villages of Afghanistan, grassroots mediators are proving that peace can be built from the ground up. Their stories challenge us to reimagine conflict resolution, showing that even in the face of severe violence, there are always seeds of hope waiting to be nurtured. As conflicts like the war in Ukraine continue to claim lives and destabilize regions, the lessons in this book become ever more urgent. It reminds us that peace is not just the absence of war, but the presence of justice, dignity, and shared prosperity. By harnessing the power of grassroots mediation, we can create ripples of peace that grow into waves of positive change. This book is a call to action for anyone who believes in the possibility of a more peaceful world. It shows that each of us, regardless of our position or background, has the power to be a mediator, a bridge-builder, a source of healing in our communities. In the words of Kenya's Wangari Maathai, "It's the little things citizens do. That's what will make the difference." This book equips you with the knowledge and inspiration to make that difference, one conversation, one community at a time. Join the global movement of grassroots peacebuilders. Discover how you can save lives, bring peace, foster economic growth, and build a healthier, happier homeland. The journey to a more peaceful world begins with you, and it begins now. To ensure broad accessibility, this book is priced affordably. It is my sincere hope that by making this resource widely available, it can have a meaningful, positive impact. If my book "Grassroots Mediation: How to Save Lives and Bring Peace, Happiness, Economic Growth in Your Homeland", can save even one life or bring a measure of happiness to a single individual, I will feel a deep sense of fulfillment and happiness myself. I will be grateful to be able to make a difference through this work. David Hoicka

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Third-Party Peacemakers in Judaism presents thirty-six case studies featuring third-party peacemakers found within Jewish rabbinic literature. Each case study is explored through three layers of analysis: text, theory, and practice. The textual analysis consists of close literary and historical readings of legends and historical accounts as found within classical, medieval, and early-modern rabbinic literature, many of which are critically analyzed here for the first time. The theoretical analysis consists of analyzing the models of third-party peacemaking imbedded within the various cases studies by comparing them with other cultural and religious models of third-party peacemaking and conflict resolution, in particular the Arab-Islamic sulha and contemporary Interactive Problem-Solving Workshops. The final layer of analysis, based upon the author's personal experiences in years of dong conflict resolution education, trainings, and actual third-party religious peacemaking in the context of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict, relates to the potential practical implications of these case studies to serve as indigenous models and sources of inspiration for third-party mediation and peacemaking in both interpersonal and intergroup conflicts today"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The historical and cultural richness of the Middle Eastern societies and the role of the state in the countries of the region provide a unique basis to understand the variety of means to address violent conflicts in different societies with a common basis. Against this backdrop, the leading question addressed in the contributions to this book concerns what is the best-suited response to violent conflicts? The question implies that there exist alternative ways of dealing with violent conflicts. And posing this question, there follow immediately other questions: best in terms of what and best for whom: the offender, the victim, the public or all of them? The responses are related to basic concepts of punishment, retaliation and mediation that have evidently been developed everywhere although content and meaning differ. Within this context, the book provides an overview on structural factors, settings and the phenomenology of violent conflicts in fourteen countries of the Middle East and an insight into the variety of types of traditional and modern conflict resolution applied largely in parallel in the region from different perspectives of social, legal and political sciences.
