Boxes 9 and 10    ","During the late 1970s, faculty members at George Mason University began exploring the idea of creating an academic program focused specifically on conflict resolution. At the time, no dedicated graduate degree in conflict resolution existed anywhere in the world. The effort was influenced in part by national discussions about creating a U.S. peace academy and by growing interest in alternative approaches to resolving social and international conflicts.","In 1981, Mason established the Center for Conflict Analysis and Resolution (CCAR), marking the formal beginning of the program under the leadership of Drs. Henry Barringer and Bryant Wedge. The program attracted influential scholars such as John Burton, Louis Kriesberg, James H. Laue, and Kenneth Boulding, whose work helped define modern conflict resolution theory and practice. It began offering a master's degree in Conflict Analysis and Resolution in the early 1980s. In 1988, it became the first institution in the world to award PhDs in Conflict Analysis and Resolution. The center was elevated to the Institute for Conflict Analysis and Resolution (ICAR) in 1989. The institute expanded its research, doctoral education, and practical engagement in mediation, peacebuilding, and international conflict intervention.","During the 1990s and 2000s, ICAR gained international recognition for combining scholarship with real-world practice. Its faculty and graduates worked on conflicts ranging from community disputes in the United States to peacebuilding efforts abroad. ","In 2011, boasting graduate and undergraduate majors and certificate programs in Conflict Analysis, ICAR was elevated to the School for Conflict Analysis and Resolution (S-CAR). This reflected both its size and its status as one of the world's leading institutions devoted exclusively to peace and conflict studies. ","In 2020, Mason renamed S-CAR as the Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter School for Peace and Conflict Resolution. The change was intended to honor the peacebuilding legacy of former U.S. President Jimmy Carter and Rosalynn Carter and to emphasize the school's commitment to peace, human rights, dialogue, and social justice. The renaming took effect on July 1, 2020.","Today, the Carter School operates across Mason's campuses in Fairfax and Arlington and maintains international partnerships and research centers focused on peacebuilding, reconciliation, mediation, genocide prevention, religion and conflict, and community engagement. It remains one of the largest degree-granting institutions in the world dedicated specifically to peace and conflict studies.","Collection processed and guide authored by Robert Vay in May 2026.","The materials in this collection describe the establishment and operation of the Institute for Conflict Analysis and Resolution (ICAR) and its predecessor, the Center for Conflict Analysis and Resolution (CCAR). ","Types of materials include: memmoranda, correspondence, newsclippings, budgetary materials, scholarly papers, newsletters, and reports. Topics covered include the creation of conflict analyis programs at George Mason University, the Edwin and Minnie Lynch Lecture Series, conflict analysis and resolution initiatives as described by scholars at George Mason University and the creation of the United States Institute of Peace as aided by members of the faculty at George Mason.  ","The date range of the materials is 1979-2008. The collection does not contain materials which describe any of the activities of the later iterations of CCAR and ICAR, most notably, the current Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter School of Peace and Conflict Resolution (2020-).  ","There are no restrictions on personal use.

Burton was born on March 2, 1915 in Melbourne, Australia. He was educated at Newington College, Sydney, the University of Sydney, and the London School of Economics. Burton's early career was marked with academic as well as diplomatic success. He was part of the Australian delegation sent to San Francisco after World War II to set up the United Nations. He became the youngest Permanent Secretary of the Australian Diplomatic Service and was appointed High Commissioner in Ceylon, but resigned to seek elected office.","In 1954 Burton's career focused increasingly on academics. During this time he published his first book on foreign policy titled The Alternative. In 1963, he moved to England to teach at the International Relations Program at University College, London, where the Centre for the Analysis of Conflict was originally set up. Over the next twenty years, Burton published many books on the subject of diplomacy and conflict resolution.","Burton and the original Centre for the Analysis of Conflict moved to the University of Kent at Canterbury in 1979 where he remained until 1981. He then moved to the University of South Carolina where he was awarded an International Studies Association Fellowship. After a brief but productive period at the University of Maryland, Burton was persuaded to join George Mason University to help in the development of a new Centre for Conflict Analysis and Resolution, now known as the Institute for Conflict Analysis and Resolution (ICAR). Burton then retired to Australia where he continued to write until his death in 2010.","Processed by Special Collections Research Center staff.
