He deconstructs everything from violent cartoons to interpersonal conflict and militarism in this fresh, well-informed and nicely illustrated book. A major contribution to peace studies’. — Michael Allen Fox, Professor Emeritus of Philosophy, Queen’s University (Canada), author of Understanding Peace: A Comprehensive Introduction ‘Within the field of peace studies, Marty Branagan’s work offers a special and attractive angle: the manifold “dimensions” of peace in everyday, contemporary culture. It covers numerous topics, from art to the mind, with a range of examples not often seen’. — Brian Martin, University of Wollongong ‘As one who understands history as an evolution of cultural practices still unfolding through our global patriarchal-colonial-capitalist system, it is good to see Marty Branagan tease out these entangled violences – in the family, on indigenous lands and through military-industrial profiteering. Moreover, it is a joy to read his grounded and hopeful vignettes on how actions for peace emerge, nurturing life on Earth’. — Ariel Salleh, author of Ecofeminism as Politics (2017) and co-editor of Pluriverse (2019) Peace activism, non-violent resistance, a culture of peace; a chat with Marty Branagan Author InformationDr. Marty Branagan is Senior Lecturer in Peace Studies at the University of New England, Australia, and a long-term artist and activist.
