Implications for Peace and Justice
from Part III - Looking Ahead
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 06 December 2025
I end the book by summarizing the goals of the project and noting future possible directions for researchers and practitioners. The purposes were to strengthen the connections between peace education, restorative justice, and psychology, while specifically offering conceptualized peace as a theoretical framework to richer understandings of youth cognition and identity related to contributing to building positive peace. The goal, however, was not simply to articulate a theoretical framework, but also to make connections to critical perspectives and application in programming and schools. The second part of the chapter thus turns to future directions in the fields of peace education and restorative justice. I discuss how conceptualized peace can help address questions in each before arguing that it could be applied as well to questions related to youth and climate change, racial/ethnic and economic injustice, and technological change.
