The conceptual basis for this manuscript is the undisputed urgent need to understand mediation from a conflict transformation perspective highlighting the nexus between indigenous justice, forgiveness and trauma healing. Embracing indigenous approaches, while rejecting\/problematizing impractical and impossible western approaches in favor of local and when applicable cross-cultural approaches could provide enduring mediation outcomes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book is based on the assumptions that local communities have the tools\/capabilities that they need to build stable and enduring peaceful co-existence. These capacities have been weakened by the political elite and bankrupt\/corrupt leadership approaches that must be rejected through empowerment and rigorous mediation brigades at the local level. The last chapter in the manuscript proposes a research center for indigenous justice, forgiveness and trauma healing in East Africa that will guarantee decades of scholarship and research around this subject in East Africa and beyond.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePart I: Indigenous Mediation Background and Illustrations\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 1: Definition of Indigenous Mediation\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 2: Indigenous Mediation Models\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 3: Indigenous Mediation Stories\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePart II: Three Major Barriers to Indigenous Mediation\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 4: Violence\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 5: Injustice\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 6: Un-forgiveness\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePart III: Contextualization of Mediation\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 7: Hybrid and Cross-Cultural Reflections\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 8: Sustaining Indigenous Mediation through Narratives\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 9: Localized Restorative Justice\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePart IV: Building Enduring Foundations of Holistic Wellness\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 10: Trauma Healing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 11: Vision 2075 and Beyond\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eConclusion: Moving Beyond Mediation Matters\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGlossary of Terms\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReferences","brand":"Rowman \u0026 Littlefield International","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51042470134103,"sku":"9781786610454","price":91.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781786610454.jpg?v=1750954278","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/beyond-mediation-exploring-indigenous-models-narratives-and-contextualization-9781786610454","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
