Activists in any conflicted situation will find many resonances in the different areas of the world covered in the book. Nonviolent News

Practitioner accounts of community development in contexts of violent conflict are showcased via impressive international case studies using conceptual debates on the 'local' turn in peacebuilding and 'everyday peace'. Donna Pankhurst, University of Bradford This is an outstanding and rigorous intervention into debates on 'local' and everyday peace by grassroots community development practitioners across multiple contexts of violent conflict. The book reinforces the importance of both community inclusion, at all stages of peacebuilding, and the vital contribution of community development to sustaining peace. Mo Hume, University of Glasgow Much more than peace in relation to conflict, here is a huge contribution to community development theory posing 'everyday peace' as a way of life, a framework for grassroots practice which focuses on the co-existence and sustainability of all humanity. Margaret Ledwith, University of Cumbria
