Global Conflict Resolution Through Positioning Analysis (Peace Psychology Book Series) - Softcover

From the reviews:

"Positioning analysis generally examines the unfolding of conflicts through positions, story lines, and actions. ... Psychologists and others interested in both inductive analyses and processes on recognizing cycles of oppression and then transforming such into testable hypotheses at the individual and group level should read this book, test its theses, and then properly confirm or disconfirm its assertions. Those just interested in considering the distinct possibility that Moghaddam and company are correct should also read this book." (Jesus (Jess) Aros and Lapde So, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 53 (37), September, 2008)

Readers find here a volume that applies positioning theory in order to achieve a fuller and more in-depth understanding of conflict and its psychological resolution. Positioning theory is the study of the nature, formation, influence and ways of change of local systems of rights and duties as shared assumptions about them influence small scale interactions. This book will thus be of interest to social psychologists and anyone interested in the development and applications of positioning theory.
