• To support teachers, teacher educators, student teachers and scholars in their navigation in the growing research field of school-based conflict and conflict resolution, a longitudinal bibliometric review was conducted. This study aimed at providing an overview of publication activity and central themes, 1996-2015. The dataset, consisting of 608 publications, was clustered on the basis of bibliographic coupling into nine clusters representing different themes. While the themes “educational leadership: management and discipline styles”, “constructive conflict resolution” and “behaviour management” were found over the whole period, others appeared 2004/5, among others "peace education and restorative approaches". Finding nine clusters strengthen the common view in this field that conflict is a multifaceted concept and can be approached from many different angles.
