Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Director-General of UNESCO, Koichiro Matsuura, writes in the Foreword to this book: "The present study by James Page provides a timely exposition of what might be argued to be a philosophy of peace education. It provides an overview of different philosophical approaches, and from diverse culture perspectives, of peace education throughout the world. As such it offers an important addition to the emerging literature on peace education and the culture of peace, as well as an important commentary on the peace mission of UNESCO."
