Bøker av Haim (Tel-Aviv University) Omer

This book begins with an examination of Gandhi's 'nonviolent' resistance and its application to the family context. A model of escalation processes between parents and children is presented, as well as ways for overcoming escalation. The book includes a step-by-step instruction manual for parents. Special topics include: dealing with violence against siblings; dealing with children who take control of the house; building alliances between parents and teachers, and community uses of the approach.

Haim Omer presents a model of authority for parents, teachers and community workers that is suitable for today's free and pluralistic societies. The New Authority thoroughly discusses the underlying theory and provides specific instructions to combat violence and risky behavior at home and in school.
