Revolutionary Peace through Ethnic Studies

Overview

Revolutionary Peace Through Ethnic Studies, by José Hernández Álvarez, explains how Spanish, French and British colonization shaped United States society and the ongoing experience of Americans of Native, African, Latin, Asian and immigrant origin. This researched and readable text calls for all Americans to declare their independence from the culture of conflict prevailing since the Revolutionary War. Pluralism (the concept of many in one) serves to study diversity and conditions needed for a national culture of peace. Paradigms, from resistance to domination, emphasize women and provide a frame for discovering the universal in how people cope with disadvantages. Each chapter’s discussion topics stimulate critical thinking, instead of partisan polemics. Supporting active learning, this aims to cultivate mutual understanding and respect, strengthen values of self-determination, equal access, civic participation and cooperative action for peace and prosperity.
