Cowan's current focus is on exploring the ontological questions human beings face and the relationship of these questions to issues of power and control, meaning, value, learning, and choices. He developed a new model for understanding and responding to violence. The "Violence Integrative Prevention and Restoration (PAR) Model" is the subject of many of his presentations. Derivative models — the "Integrative Power Management (IPM) Model" and the "Integrative Conflict Management (ICM) Model" — are intended for more global application in human dynamics.
Ari's presentations are conducted throughout the United States as well as internationally. They deal with the subject of his forthcoming books as well as other select areas exploring the human experience.
Ari is back to writing. His next book is Compassion and the Alchemy of Being.
