| Just PeacemakingTen Practices for Abolishing War Glen H. Stassen The inadequacies of pacifism and just war have taken a horrible toll on the world of this century. While debate has focused on whether or not to wage war, we have witnessed two world wars, the specter of nuclear annihilation, and the wholesale extermination of peoples, as well as numerous other conflicts with tragic results. What have been overlooked are the positive, practical steps that human beings can take to make peace.Enter a new perspective. JUST PEACEMAKING maps a course for individuals, grassroots groups, voluntary associations, and religious organizations, to show people how to fan the flames of peace. It challenges pacifists to be peacemakers and just war theorists to spell out the resorts that should be tried before the last. It explores what intentions we have to restore a just and enduring peace, and what we must do to live up to those intentions.JUST PEACEMAKING is the product of 23 scholars who have collaborated annually since 1992 to specify the practical steps and develop the undergirding principles of this critical approach.GLEN STASSEN is Lewis B. Smedes Professor of Christian Ethics at Fuller Theological Seminary, Pasadena, California. He recently edited Capital Punishment: A Reader, in The Pilgrim Library of Ethics series. 208 pp.- 6 x 9
