11 November 2018 marks one hundred years since the signing of the Armistice that ended the First World War. The scale of this war makes a compelling argument for commemorating it - we must remember in order not to repeat the mistakes of the past - yet does this argument hold true? Guests bring three different perspectives of 'teaching war and peace' to the show and are invited to ponder the question: Does teaching about war translate into teaching about peace?

We hear from Rowan Light (University of Canterbury) about changes to ANZAC Day commemoration over time, Katerina Standish (National Centre for Peace and Conflict Studies, University of Otago) about the acknowledgement of violence in New Zealand curricula, and Laura Jones (Te Papa) about the role of New Zealand's national museum in encouraging audience reflection on notions of war and peace.
