Morton Deutsch is considered the founder of modern conflict resolution theory and practice. He has written and researched areas which pioneered current efforts in conflict resolution and diplomacy. This volume showcases six of Deutsch's more notable and influential papers, and include complementary chapters written by other significant contributors working in these areas who can situate the original papers in the context of the existing state of scholarship.
From the reviews:
"Conflict, Interdependence, and Justice: The Intellectual Legacy of Morton Deutsch is many things: a celebration of Morton Deutsch's life work, an introduction to new methods, a rubric for theory development, a self-help book, a manual for teachers and politicians, and a historical look at social psychology. ? psychologists and graduate students who are interested in social justice, conflict, or political psychology would profit from reading the book. It would also be useful reading in a class on theory development or the history of social psychology." (Helen C. Harton, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 57 (20), May, 2012)
