About the Book
Peace and Conflict Studies (henceforth: Peace Science) has emerged as an academic discipline with its own
graduate programs, handbooks, research tools, theories, associations, journals, and conferences. As with most
scientific communities, the slow migration of academic knowledge into practical application becomes a limiting
factor of a field’s growth, its impact, and the overall effectiveness of its practitioners.
The expanding academic field of Peace Science continues to produce high volumes of significant research that
often goes unnoticed by practitioners, the media, activists, public policy-makers, and other possible beneficiaries.
This is unfortunate, because Peace Science ultimately should inform the practice on how to bring about peace.
To address this issue, the War Prevention Initiative has created the Peace Science Digest as a way to
disseminate top selections of research and findings from the field’s academic community to its many beneficiaries.
The Peace Science Digest is formulated to enhance awareness of scholarship addressing the key issues of our
time by making available an organized, condensed, and comprehensible summary of this important research as a
resource for the practical application of the field’s current academic knowledge.
