Third-Party Peacemakers in Judaism
Oxford University Press Inc (Verlag)
978-0-19-756677-0 (ISBN)
Roth presents thirty-six case studies featuring third-party peacemakers drawn from Jewish classical, medieval, and early-modern rabbinic literature. Each case is explored through three layers of analysis - text, theory, and practice. The first layer offers historical and literary analysis of textual case studies, many of which are critically analyzed here for the first time. The second layer examines the theoretical model of third-party peacemaking imbedded within the selected cases and comparing them to other cultural and religious models of third-party peacemaking and conflict resolution. The final layer of analysis, based upon the author's personal experience of religious conflict resolution and peacemaking, looks at the practical implications of these case studies as models for modern peacemaking.
Third-Party Peacemakers in Judaism serves as an inspiration for fostering indigenous practices of third-party peacemaking and mediation in the modern era.
Rabbi Dr. Daniel Roth is the Director of Mosaica -The Religious Peace Initiative, which engages religious leaders in mediation, conflict resolution, and religious peacebuilding and is a lecturer of religion and conflict resolution at Bar-Ilan University's Conflict Resolution, Management and Negotiation Graduate Program in Israel. Roth was the founder and director of the Pardes Center for Judaism and Conflict Resolution and the Mahloket Matters Project.
