Detalles de la lección
Do you sometimes argue with your partner, friends or family members?
Do you worry about world conflicts?
Are you interested in peace, but are not sure exactly what it is?
Join me on this journey to learn about peace as a practical philosophy. We will explore the history of peace movements around the world, look at key inspirational figures from history, and go into how peace of any kind has to start on a personal level, so we can develop some personal practices just for you.
Class 1: Peace as a practice
In this class we explore perspectives of peace from different religions and cultures around the world, and study some of Mohandas Gandhi's philosophy and his idea of 'satyagraha' or peace as a personal practice.
We will also look at the importance of develping personal peace practices as a response to crises, whether these are individual crises or global events such as pandemics.
Class 2: Moral psychology and the art of getting along
In this class, we explore how holistic thinkng can help us to live peaceful lives.
We also look at some different forms of justice and discuss 'restorative justice' and its possible benefits to society
Class 3: Transcending violence through unity
In this class, we explore the idea of violence as a 'cycle' which needs to be transcended in order to find peace.
To do this, we need imagnation. We look at the work of John Paul Lederach and the 'moral imagination'.
Class 4: Imagination as a key to understanding
In this class, we look more at John Paul Lederach's work and some examples of 'the moral imagination' in action.
We will also discuss some ways in which you can apply the moral imagination in your life.
Class 5: Storytelling and peace
In this class, we explore holistic design practices and how they can help us in our own personal peace goals.
We also explore the importance of shared values and discuss which values are important to you.
We finish by reviewing the previous 5 weeks.
