| Abstract | The complexities of child and youth violence suggest that the solution requires a concerted approach. This paper draws upon research studies that seek to isolate the root causes of violence and the effect of exposure to violence on children. Factors from the home, school, and community environments may provide both the cause and the cure. There is growing evidence that programs that emphasize the development of social and emotional skills in young children hold promise for the socialization of at-risk children. Theories of moral development, emotional literacy, and learned optimism are reviewed as research-based options for immunizing children from the invitation to violence they experience on a regular basis in todays society. Using a multidisciplinary approach, the paper weaves together current thinking in public health, psychology, education, and community development. Theoretical constructs in peacebuilding and empowerment are identified for their transformative potential to create the foundation for long term structural change. Schwerins 8-step plan for grassroots empowerment of people to change society is explained. Lederachs integrated framework for community peacebuilding is outlined, along with Reardons concept of cultivating social imagination and envisioning peace. (Contains 28 references.) (Author/KB) |
