We are pleased to provide links to three video clips of 3 short talks by Marshall Rosenberg, hosted by the Big Picture TV website.

Marshall Rosenberg created Nonviolent Communication ^sm and is Founder and Director of Educational Services for the Center for Nonviolent Communication, an international non-profit organization based in California.



Clip 1 - Nonviolent Communication - Part One

In the first of this two-part series, Dr. Rosenberg talks about how society has suffered under political 'domination structures' that emerged about 8,000 years ago. He reflects on the origins of Nonviolent Communication and describes how the process can be used pragmatically to resolve religious conflict. To illustrate its effectiveness as a diplomatic tool, he finishes by describing how he helped restore peace between two warring tribes in Nigeria.

Clip 2 - Nonviolent Communication - Part two

In this second part, Dr Rosenberg talks about how we all too often deal with our own shortcomings in ways which ignore our basic human needs. He then goes on to describe how modern medicine can sometimes misdiagnose depression as a chemical imbalance, and explains how such diagnoses seldom look at the internal dialogues we all have that can lead to our feeling depressed.

Clip 3 - Life is Play

Dr Rosenberg talks about Teilhard de Chardin’s theories of human evolution back to a more natural way - one where no-one advances at the expense of another. He speaks of his own experiences working with Nonviolent Communication and how enriching the lives of others is the most rewarding work mankind can engage in.
