Abstract: Despite the ubiquity of violence in world history, and the efforts of scholars and national commissions to diag nose its causes and prescribe solutions, violence remains a major social problem in many parts of the world. Indeed, it is such in part because of these efforts, and because under standing and solutions are problematic. Papers in this issue are reviewed and the respective roles of and relations between national commissions and the scholarly community discussed.
