Conflict Revolution: Mediating Evil, War, Injustice And Terrorism By Dr. Kenneth Cloke

I spent my day Saturday at the annual convention of the Southern California Mediation Association (kudos to attorney-mediator Phyllis Pollack for a fabulous conference!)  Ken Cloke spoke eloquently on conflict systems and what mediators can do to “save the planet.”  I took his presentation (characteristically and densely verbal) and added images to break up the text hoping that Ken won’t mind supplementing the English language with pictures).

I highly recommend Ken’s presentation (which was incredibly eloquent at the conference and not limited by the hard bruising text against text can do) as well as, of course, his brilliant and visionary book – Conflict Revolution.
