This is based on a fundamental premise: to deal adequately with conflict requires genuine openness to different cultural practices and dialogue between different ways of knowing and being. Equally essential is a shift away from understanding cultural difference as an inevitable source of conflict, and the development of a more critical attitude toward previously under-examined Western assumptions about conflict and its resolution.

Explores how to deal adequately with conflict, and particularly with the challenge of cultural and other differences. The contributors' response to the challenge of conflict and cultural difference—and the main objective of this book—is to introduce and explore some of the rich insights into conflict resolution emanating from Asia and Oceania.
