1:57:55Now PlayingThe U.S. Institute of Peace and the FP Group, publisher of Foreign Policy magazine and foreignpolicy.com, hosted the third installment of PeaceGame on December 5, 2014. This edition of the biannual PeaceGame examined peace keeping and peace making issues as they relate to the rise in global violent extremism.
