Elise Boulding
I did not make this recording. This is simply a pointer to to the website of Beyond Intractability, where I discovered it. Elise Boulding, 82 years old at the time of this recording in 2003, talks about her peacemaking work, networking and imaging the future workshops. Elise and her husband Kenneth who died in the mid-1990's, are two Quakers whose major contributions to the world included much on conflict resolution and peacemaking.
