Awakening illuminates key discoveries in the sciences, theology, psychology, spirituality, humanities, and peace and conflict studies. The process of awakening is seen through the lens of emergent creativity and spirituality with a view toward taking responsibility for relationships and creating justice.
Even if all of the elements we know to be significant in the process of reconciliation were present, reconciliation would not necessarily take place. Reconciliation is a nonlinear, nonalgorithmic process that involves “matters of the heart.” From emergent creativity and its links to mysticism, to the evolution of emotions as drivers of thought, Awakening weaves cutting-edge discoveries in complexity theory with philosophical reflections on consciousness and language, drawing on Lonergan and Wittgenstein. Awakening as a phenomenon takes on a vibrant vitality as an aspect of transpersonal psychology and it manifests as imperatives to take responsibility for our relationships, to address complex challenges of justice, and to adopt a heart-based approach to peacebuilding.

Vern Neufeld Redekop is professor of conflict studies at Saint Paul University. Gloria Neufeld Redekop is author and researcher in spirituality and religious social history.
