ABSTRACT
In this chapter, I wish to offer some basic, conceptual distinctions between different kinds of peace education as they pertain to programs in politically different regions. My argument is that neither scholarly nor practical progress can take place in the absence of clear conceptions of what peace education is and what goals it is to serve. Second, I focus on one class of peace education programs, the class that takes place in regions of intractable conflicts, claiming that other kinds of peace
education are subsumed under it; I outline what (in my opinion) its goals and major mission should be.
