- Abstract
- This article traces the development of peace studies in Mindanao, arguing that
Mindanaos distinct multicultural context ensured the fields tight linkage to Islamic
and Mindanao studies. In all, the search for peaceful resolution of the armed conflicts
in these parts of the Philippines provided the activist-inspired impetus for the fields
growth and determined the highly localized focus of formal and nonformal peace
education, research, and publications in and on Mindanao. Peace studies practitioners—
from the academe, non-governmental organizations, and religious institutions—
contributed to the shaping of national policies and programs for Mindanao, with
government policy, in turn, buttressing the institutionalization of their initiatives. This
article also provides comparative insights on the nature and evolution of Mindanao
peace studies and that of Western peace studies.
