Towards the end of the newsletter below,Amanda Ripley, author of a new book, High Conflict: Why We Get Trapped and How We Get Out of It, is looking for stories. Amanda’s understanding of getting out of conflict is informed almost exclusively by mediation theory and practice.
I’m sending her request for stories to people who know theories and practices for supporting groups in finding paths through conflict, like you! Here’s her specific request, copied from below: > An Invitation > > I write about change and people who have undergone transformations (and the > researchers who study them) for The Atlantic, Politico, The Washington Post > and other outlets.
