Department of Psychology Ohio State University Delaware, OH, USA. I am Professor Emeritus of Psychology at Ohio State University. For me, the Emeritus title implies continued contributions to the University and field of psychology but to my grown children it means continued eligibility for OSU football tickets! After an enjoyable career at Ohio State, I continue to find writing and research on psychology very satisfying especially in relation to peace, conflict and social justice. I also enjoy growing the field of “peace psychology” and helping others find venues for doing the same. To those ends, I have edited a three-volume set entitled, Encyclopedia of Peace Psychology and serve as Series Editor for the Peace Psychology Book Series. I view peace psychology as an area that seeks to deepen our understanding of the means of promoting harmony and equity in human relations and systems. While my interests within peace psychology are wide-ranging, at present I’m focused most on the nature of humanizing processes especially in intergroup relations.Department of Psychology Ohio State University Delaware, OH, USA.

Children and Peace
This open access book brings together discourse on children and peace from the 15th International Symposium on the Contributions of Psychology to Peace, covering issues pertinent to children and peace and approaches to making their world safer, fairer and more sustainable. The book is divided into nine sections that examine traditional themes (social construction and deconstruction of diversity, intergenerational transitions and memories of war, and multiculturalism), as well as contemporary issues such as Europe’s “migration crisis”, radicalization and violent extremism, and violence in families, schools and communities. Chapters contextualize each issue within specific social ecological frameworks in order to reflect on the multiplicity of influences that affect different outcomes and to discuss how the findings can be applied in different contexts. The volume also provides solutions and hope through its focus on youth empowerment and peacebuilding programs for children and families. This forward-thinking volume offers a multitude of views, approaches, and strategies for research and activism drawn from peace psychology scholars and United Nations researchers and practitioners. This book's multi-layered emphasis on context, structural determinants of peace and conflict, and use of research for action towards social cohesion for children and youth has not been brought together in other peace psychology literature to the same extent. Children and Peace: From Research to Action will be a useful resource for peace psychology academics and students, as well as social and developmental psychology academics and students, peace and development practitioners and activists, policy makers who need to make decisions about the matters covered in the book, child rights advocates and members of multilateral organizations such as the UN.
