Exchanges and Peacemaking: Counterfactuals and Unexplored Possibilities

Öz

We may expect international
exchange programmes to contribute to peaceful international relations, but how
strong is the evidence that they actually do? In addition to the intercultural
education discussed elsewhere in this issue, I classify mechanisms by which
exchanges might contribute to peace into four categories – signaling, attitude
change, network formation and institutional transfer – and assess the evidence
that exchanges affect international relations through each of these mechanisms.
Despite considerable research there are still important gaps in the evidence,
and these gaps may have significant consequences for how we organize exchanges
and what kinds of mobility we support.
