Description and Table of Contents

Description

This is a study of conflict resolution which concentrates on two particular cases, Northern Ireland and southern Africa, where conflict has been due to colonial domination and settlement of colonialists on the land of indigenous peoples. It brings together views from journalists, politicians and radicals from all sides, and analyzes the learning process involved in conflict resolution, the skill of negotiation, and the concepts of compromise and surrender.
