Students, faculty, and members of the community gathered on Conflict Resolution Day (October 18) to hear a talk by Associate Professor and Advisor for the Matsunaga Institute Brien Hallett. The occasion also served to launch Hallett's latest book "Declaring War: Congress the President and What the Constitution does not say.
The Spark M. Matsunaga Institute for Peace & Conflict Resolution envisions a university, community and world where the prevention, management, and resolution of conflict are a shared enterprise.
We are a multi-disciplinary academic community of scholars, students, practitioners, and visitors who seek to promote peace and conflict resolution through teaching, research, service and application.
