The book is written in the form of a thesis in a normative peace research tradition. It views non-violent conflict resolution as desirable and peace movements and people speaking out against war as hopeful. The struggles and dilemmas faced by the people who work for peace have been explicitly discussed here, along with the questions they constantly tussle with. The book includes the stories, experiences, explanations and insights of people who have been living through the violent conflict.
