More Than a Curriculum - Education for Peace and Development

Exploring the field of peace education, the bulk of the book analyzes and critically
evaluates contemporary schools and universities. Providing some successful
and not-so-successful alternative school and university projects and
experiments, the book proposes peace and development education as a life process and presents a whole array of
non-conventional tools and approaches.
The unique feature of the book is that instead of putting emphasis on teaching peace and development, it insists
on being and becoming what we teach. It makes a great textbook for education courses and programs, and a good
handbook for peace educators and peace researchers around the world.
The authors of the book are two teachers who are not attached to any regular educational institution anywhere in
the world and are qualified to say what they have said in the book. The two authors have played significant, instrumental
roles in promoting peace studies.
