THE LAW OF RUMA™

About the presentation

Emotional Economy as Social Innovation

The Law of RUMA™ and the Educational Design of Non-Retaliation

The presentation reframed interpersonal conflict as an exchange of invisible social value and introduced The Law of RUMA™ as a social-innovation framework connecting emotional literacy, conflict prevention and peace education.

It explained three principles: Release, in which the sender of anger loses Ruma first; Collision, in which returned anger causes both sides’ Ruma to collide and disappear; and Reception, in which non-retaliation allows the released Ruma to reach the receiver. Non-retaliation was presented as active practice that can include calm speech, boundary-setting and seeking help.
