We are now observing a shift of the centre of gravity, or the engines of human activities, from the Atlantic to the Asia-Pacific. Industrial productions, political conflicts, and militarization in the Asia-Pacific draw global attentions. So are intellectual, academic activities. In the field of peace research theories and practices in this region have their own contributions. Gandhi`s legacies and inspirations in the fields of economic globalization, peace education, and constitution are as relevant and important as ever. The lessons of the disasters of 3/11 in Japan echo Gandhian concerns. Conflict transformations and reconciliations in the region such as ones between China and Japan pose a big challenge for us. Chapters of the present volume, authored by seasoned or spirited peace scholars in the Asia-Pacific, present new paradigms in peace research that nobody in the field can ignore. ISBN 9788131605639
