The Center for Narrative and Conflict Resolution at the School for Conflict Analysis and Resolution at George Mason University invites you to a conference of panels and discussion with Keynote Speaker Diane Enns and Discussant John Winslade!
This conference intends to create a dialogic space for inquiry into the complexities of violence and the treatment of victims and perpetrators in research, theory, and practice. Join us to look critically at the empancipatory theories that create the roles of victim and victimizer, and consider the implications for theory and practice of a destabilization of the notion of victimhood.
Opportunities for publication in several journals accompany presentation and attendance.
