This book describes Rondine Cittadella della Pace and its unique residential peacebuilding program that works with young activists from some of the world’s most dangerous conflict zones. Set in its own Tuscan village, Rondine invites students to its two-year long residential program that provides them with a master’s degree, trauma healing, and training in peacebuilding. While at Rondine, students work in pairs representing “both sides” of a conflict and prepare projects that they will put into place when they return home. Half of the book is devoted to an in-depth description of the Rondine method by its founder, Franco Vaccari, while the remainder consists of essays providing the religious, psychological, and political context for this innovative psycho-social method of conflict resolution.

This timely book is a must read for practitioners of peacebuilding who wish to understand how sustained intercommunal living, dialogue, and deep reflection can be creatively organized and successfully sustained. Contributors offer moving and theoretically grounded insights about the way that fear, mistrust, and trauma are implicated in conflict and how carefully facilitated encounters with ‘the other’ can serve as a foundation for conflict transformation.
