«Tejendra Pherali offers an insightful and authoritative account of education in Nepal's civil conflict, locating educational injustices among the conflict's root causes, examining the impacts of the conflict on the education system, and identifying the importance of education for peacebuilding in the post-conflict education. It is essential reading for all interested in education, conflict and development.»
Robin Shields, Professor of Education, University of Bristol, UK
«This is a highly thoughtful and readable book for those interested in peace and conflict in the broadest sense – even readers from outside the education field. In addition to the fascinating and detailed empirical material on Nepal’s experience, it provides an accessible introduction to the key academic debates around the relationship between education, conflict, and post-conflict peacebuilding.»
