A landmark contribution to international conflict transformation from one of the world's leading independent mediators.
In this profound and timely work, David Hoicka brings his extensive mediation experience and unique perspective as a neutral observer from Singapore to address the deepening crisis between Europe and Russiaa relationship whose trajectory will define global security and prosperity for generations to come.
Hoicka's central thesisthat unrecognized intergenerational trauma serves as the hidden driver of conflict between these deeply interconnected civilizationschallenges conventional security and diplomatic frameworks while opening new possibilities for transformation. With scholarly rigor and profound humanity, he illuminates how trauma transmitted across generations shapes security perceptions, diplomatic positions, and public narratives in ways that technical solutions alone cannot address.
This comprehensive work moves from conceptual understanding to practical application, providing:
- Historical analysis revealing patterns of trauma transmission from medieval interactions through World War II to post-Soviet tensions
- Comparative insights from Singapore's successful transformation of ethnic division into prosperous harmony
- Structured mediation methodologies specifically designed for addressing historical grievances
- Concrete action frameworks for implementation at leadership, institutional, community, and individual levels
Building on Hoicka's previous works including "Healing Intergenerational Trauma in Ukraine Russia" and "History of Peace: Lessons from 4500 Years Mediating Armed Conflicts," this book represents the culmination of decades studying conflict transformation across civilizations while developing practical approaches to seemingly intractable divisions.
For those who recognize that the current trajectory of Europe-Russia relations serves neither region's genuine interests and threatens the accomplishments of European civilization itself, this book offers not merely analysis but pathwaya structured approach to healing historical wounds while building relationships based on present realities rather than past fears.
The choice between catastrophic conflict or unprecedented cooperation now belongs to leaders and citizens across both regions. This essential work provides vision and methodology for those choosing the latter.
