Beyond Equity and Inclusion in Conflict Resolution: Recentering the Profession (The ACR Practitioner’s Guide Series)

Beyond Equity and Inclusion in Conflict Resolution: Recentering the Profession examines the many ways racism manifests in a professional field. Useful for any field that recruits adherents and standardizes practices, this volume addresses how individuals, organizations, and institutions are shaped by and give shape to racially based exclusion. With contributions by 46 contributors, most of whom are people of color, this book offers a unique opportunity for readers to reach beyond assumptions, biases, and other limitations to change-bringing awareness.
