{"product_id":"learning-non-violence-gangeya-mukherji-9780199458431","title":"Learning Non-Violence","description":"Violence as a concept and practice has largely been unsuccessful in preventing or resolving conflicts. In fact, violence as an instinct is opposed to the values that build the foundation of human civilization-respecting life, diversity, and interdependence within society. The essays in this volume discuss the concept of non-violence in totality and also recognize its vulnerability, particularly in the context of what can be called 'learned non-violence'. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eStructured around four themes-religion, protest, the modern condition, and the world today-the book stimulates the reader to consider the practical possibilities of non-violence. In the process it tries to develop an engagement between modern discourses and the ancient vocabulary of the concept. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDelving into the enterprise from different perspectives across disciplines, the contributors offer a rich intersection of not only the past and present, but also various approaches that theorize the concept, thereby visualizing the possibilities of a sustainable moral pedagogy of non-violence.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gangeya Mukherji\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 019945843X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780199458431\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/24\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.06lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.60h x 5.80w x 1.10d","brand":"Gangeya Mukherji","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44410898317567,"sku":"9780199458431","price":59.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c20b4b27-b7ed-44ee-9397-675880c2b716.jpg?v=1697538181","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/learning-non-violence-gangeya-mukherji-9780199458431","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
