Abstract:

At the family level, conflict is unavoidable and children are inevitably affected by it. The quality of the conflict to which children are exposed has profound implications for their development into adulthood. Moving beyond conflict in the family, over 1 billion children are affected by community and political conflict and war, this too has profound and long-lasting implications for their development. Family Research integrates several theoretical models that are central to work in this field, providing a clear review of the literature in a way that systematically and logically flows. This book also discusses child development from a developmental psychopathology perspective. It also integrates perspectives on violence and conflict across the social ecology, as well as several theoretical frameworks that are core to the field. Introduces Emotional Security Theory as a way to understand links between conflict and adjustment Presents the basic principles of DP: pathways of development, understanding normal development from a DP perspective, risk and protective factors and resilience Describe ways in which translational work can be extended to support families in contexts of political violence and armed conflict Emphasizes differences between constructive and destructive in research
