"This work provides a broad overview of the field of peace and conflict studies. It is aimed at both an academic and professional audience. It covers topics ranging from theories on the emergence and evolution of conflicts to peacekeeping, negotiation and mediation, peacebuilding, and nonviolent action. It addresses both the study of armed conflicts or sociopolitical conflicts that could turn violent as well as the responses to these conflicts, and the processes of nonviolent resistance. It is based on an in-depth review of the literature in the field, as well as the author's reflections based on her practical experience in the field. The book attempts to reflect a variety of perspectives that account for the interdisciplinary nature of the field and takes into consideration studies with different methodologies. In addition, it seeks to link theory and concepts with concrete examples and incorporates case studies that allow us to understand how theoretical discussions are related to practice. Added to this is the use of figures and tables that allow you to visualize how theories and concepts are applied, illustrate them with examples, and examine trends. Thus, it is expected that this work will be a reference for the studies of peace and conflicts at a theoretical and practical level in the Spanish-speaking world"--
