Document Summary
Rethinking pedagogies in divided societies latin america, and around the world. Alternatively, elicitive pedagogies are designed to - name, investigate, and build on the implicit conflict knowledge rooted in any culture"s experiences, stories, and proverbs. [c]ulture" should not be understood by conflict resolvers and trainers primarily in technical terms as a challenge to be mastered and overcome. Culture is rooted in social knowledge and represents a vast resource, a rich seedbed for producing a multitude of approaches and models in conflict resolution. Most contemporary peace education theory includes principles and strategies for addressing aspects of structural and cultural violence that is, to achieve justice as well as harmonious relations. People growing up in different social contexts presumably glean from their environments, and consequently need from formal education, different narratives, skills, understandings, and practice opportunities. Knowledges and norms taught in school may coexist uneasily, especially in high-conflict environments, with what"s learned in the family, community, religion, and popular media.
