Reviews for Johan Galtung: A Pioneer of Peace Research
“In collaboration with Johan Galtung, Dietrich Fischer has produced a short book that encapsulates much of Galtung's contributions as a ‘Pioneer of Peace Research’. … This short book provides an excellent summary of this unique approach.” (Hans-Henrik Holm, Journal of Peace Research, April 9, 2014)
