AbstractThis article discusses a theory of mediator psychological growth specifically focusing on Carl Jung's concept (1954) of the Shadow. The nature and development of the Shadow are outlined, with particular attention to the mechanism of projection, applied to the perspectives of both the individual and the group. The importance of the mediator uncovering and owning his or her Shadow material is underscored, along with some strategies for doing so. This article responds to Bowling and Hoffman's third stage of mediator development (2003), where the mediator is committed to gaining greater awareness of how personal qualities influence the mediation process.

AbstractIntegral Conflict presents a new map of conflict. Drawing on the work of James Mark Baldwin, William James, Ken Wilber, Leslie Combs, and others, we focus on the evolution of consciousness within the experience of conflict, refracting human experience into its four fundamental dimensions: individual and collective; internal and external. Using the River Conflict as a real‐life case study, the authors illustrate how an integral approach to conflict analysis and action allows practitioners to choose among the most relevant and effective tools, techniques, and insights to more effectively support the constructive engagement of conflict.

AbstractDevelopmentalists such as Baldwin (1975); Basseches (1984); Cook‐Greuter (1990, 1999, 2000); Kegan (1982, 1994, 2001); Loevinger (1976, 1979, 1983, 1993, 1997, 1998, 2002); Piaget (1970); and Wade (1996) have devoted their research to the growth of different lines of development in individuals. A developmental understanding of conflict has implications for conflict theorists and interveners. In applying Kegan's staged model of adult psychological development to the experi‐ence of conflict, we can better understand the meaning‐making that underlies the behaviors that disputants exhibit in conflict, thereby allowing interveners to help the disputants expand their understanding of the conflict situation and find new pathways to its resolution.

This book explores the nature and implications of positive, creative, and loving mimesis and brings together the interdisciplinary fields of Girardian studies and creativity studies in new and original ways. Scientists, philosophers, psychologists, theologians and ancient thinkers are brought into thought provoking and insightful dialogue with Girardian conceptions of mimetic desire, scapegoating, and hominization.
