This volume honors the lifetime achievements of the distinguished
activist and scholar Elise Boulding (1920–2010) on the occasion of
her 95th birthday. Known as the “matriarch” of the twentieth
century peace research movement, she made significant contributions
in the fields of peace education, future studies, feminism, and
sociology of the family, and as a prominent leader in the peace
movement and the Society of Friends. She taught at the University
of Colorado, Boulder from 1967 to 1978 and at Dartmouth College
from 1978 to 1985, and was instrumental in the development of peace
studies programs at both institutions. She was a co-founder of the
International Peace Research Association (1964), the Consortium on
Peace Research Education and Development (1970), and various peace
and women’s issues-related committees and working groups of the
American Sociological Association and International Sociological
Association.
