Lecturing

Nigel Young, editor in chief of the Oxford International Encyclopedia on world Peace, conflict and transformation, has been involved in Peace Studies since the early 60s. He is available to give lectures, slide shows, illustrated talks or presentations, in classes related to contemporary or historical war/peace issues. Please contact him directly for a list of suggested topics, and other details.

In 2009-2010 Young is hoping to visit peace studies centers, programs or peace related institutions. The result will be a report on the global state of the field. He is especially interested in universities or colleges which are considering or are in the process of creating programs or concentrations/majors/minors in Peace Studies or peace libraries/ museums/ study centers and sharing experiences.

He has already traveled extensively through the USA, and through Japan, Canada and Continental Europe, and will make similar tours in Northern Europe or the UK before the Encyclopedia is published in Spring, 2009.

His speaking venues have included more than 25 different countries worldwide including Japan, North America, Brazil, and most countries in the European Union, as well as former Yugoslavia and Albania.

If you are interested in hosting a visit, please forward details of the area, or the peace field you are interested in. As well as surveying the field, he will be seeking cutting edge contributions to further editions of the encyclopedia which may be contacted via the publisher.

Nigel Young has lectured at the University level since 1963 and presented papers at many major international conferences since 1962.
