About the Book

Fundamentals of Jewish Conflict Resolution offers an in-depth presentation of traditional Jewish approaches to interpersonal conflict resolution. It examines the underlying principles, prescriptive rules, and guidelines that are found in the Jewish tradition for the prevention, amelioration, and resolution of interpersonal conflicts, without the assistance of any type of third-party intermediary. Among the topics discussed are the obligations of pursuing peace and refraining from destructive conflict, Rabbinic perspectives on what constitutes constructive/destructive conflict, judging people favorably and countering negative judgmental biases, resolving conflict through dialogue, asking and granting forgiveness, and anger management. This work also includes detailed summaries of contemporary approaches to interpersonal conflict resolution, theories and research on apologies and forgiveness, and methods of anger management.

About the Author :
Howard Kaminsky is a research fellow at the Pardes Center for Judaism and Conflict Resolution, and serves as a mediator for Community Mediation Services in Queens, NY. He has an EdD in religion and education from Teachers College, Columbia University and rabbinic ordination from Mesivta Tifereth Jerusalem.

Review :
"A superb study, informed by fastidious scholarship, of the key principles of conflict resolution in Jewish law and thought. I recommend it highly to all those seeking to bring peace to troubled relationships, within and beyond the Jewish community."--Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks "Howard Kaminsky has made a monumental contribution to the emerging field of religion and conflict resolution. It is no small achievement to delve into the depth and breadth of a 3000-year-old tradition and emerge with a coherent and path-breaking account of Judaism's contribution to conflict resolution. He has mastered the legal and non-legal literature and given it persuasive form as a plausible system of intervention in conflict. This will help pioneer a new and necessary field, and also a new approach to the practice of Jewish intervention in destructive conflict."--Rabbi Dr. Marc Gopin, author of "Between Eden and Armageddon: The Future of World Religions, Violence and Peacemaking"; James H. Laue Professor, Director CRDC, The School for Conflict Analysis and Resolution, George Mason University "A stimulating, integrative book. Kaminsky draws insightful connections between traditional Judaic teachings around peace and conflict, and contemporary scholarship in the field of conflict resolution. By providing a side by side exploration of the core goals and concerns, practices and processes, patterns of thought, and approach to emotion that characterize each of these two domains, Kaminsky helps to illuminate constructive ways forward in the face of interpersonal conflict. Informed by Kaminsky's own experience as both a Rabbi and a trained mediator, this book offers a unique survey of Jewish teachings, as well as thought provoking recommendations for those of us in the field of conflict resolution."--Peter T. Coleman, Professor of Psychology and Education, Director of the Morton Deutsch International Center for Cooperation and Conflict Resolution (MD-ICCCR) at Teachers College, Columbia University This is a comprehensive bibliographic collection and an encyclopedia in one book.--Sanford R. Silverburg, Catawba College "AJL Reviews" "Dr. Kaminsky is an established mediator and expert in conflict resolution. And in his book [Fundamentals of Jewish Conflict Resolution] the author masterfully contributes to this endeavor. ... This book, an expansion of Kaminsky's doctoral dissertation, is a remarkable scholarly work, encyclopedic in its scope, detailed in its analysis and replete with insights that deserve serious consideration for anyone interested in the field. ... I urge all to encounter this text. For within its pages, one finds a spirit that is hopeful about human change even as it understands the limitations of human nature. Kaminsky presents a vision of conflict resolution that is unique and ambitious." --Rabbi James Rosen, Journal of Religion & Spirituality in Social Work
