Coping with Crisis

Conflict Management and Resolution

תקציר
Coping with Crisis focuses on the theme of conflict management and resolution in its many facets: on the level of individuals, families, groups, cities, and countries, in the spheres of environment, economics, law, and politics, and through its representation in literature and the arts. The essays in this three-part volume, grouped into the rubrics of Humanities, Law, and Social Sciences, describe varied modes of response to conflict, presenting both theoretical discussions and many instructive examples of how potentially volatile situations may be avoided or defused.
