Peter Wallensteen, a leading international peace researcher, joined the Kroc Institute faculty in 2006. He spends the fall semesters in residence at Notre Dame, where he consults and collaborates with faculty on research projects, teaches a graduate seminar on international peace research, and lectures on peace research topics.
           
Wallensteen retains his position as the Dag Hammarskjöld Professor in the Department of Peace and Conflict Research at Sweden’s Uppsala University, where he directs the Uppsala Conflict Data Program as well as the Special Program on the Implementation of Targeted Sanctions.

He is the author of the widely used Understanding Conflict Resolution: Peace, War, and the Global System, which was published in 2002 and in Arabic in 2006. The second edition was published in 2007. His interest in targeted sanctions resulted in an edited volume, International Sanctions: Between Wars and Words, in 2005 (with Carina Staibano and with contributions by Kroc Institute sanctions researchers). The Making Targeted Sanctions Effective was the outcome of a large international process for improving sanctions and was presented to the UN Security Council in February 2003. The same year an edited book on Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Alva Myrdal,  Alva Myrdal in International Affairs, was published. His other research interests include the durability of peace agreements and the impact of preventive measures on the dynamics of disputes and conflicts.
