CALL FOR THOUGHT

PAPERS ABOUT PEACE

This is a bit like a Call for Papers but it is more basic. Members of the JSSW Editorial Board remarked at a recent meeting that in a world where a new war or genocide seems to erupt every year and the old ones blaze on for decades, no one is sending us papers about waging peace. Since this is probably the most global, fundamental and vexing problem in the entire realm of social welfare, it is understandable why few people try to build scholarly careers around it. Nevertheless, we are hereby issuing a plea to take some time out of the research you have programmed and imagine a contribution you might make to the study of peace. We would like to publish such work. If you’re feeling ambitious, we would also welcome a proposal for a Special Issue on Peace and How to Create It. If you let me know you are thinking about this, I will put you in touch with like-minded others.
