Produktbeschreibung

This book provides a fact-filled overview of the problem of political violence and what is being done to ameliorate it. The book presents extensive data about wars that have taken place since 1991, including information on what started and stopped them, the actions being taken to reduce the extent of armed conflict in the world, and the organisations that conduct and fund peacebuilding operations and research.

Those interested in stopping or preventing wars will see how wars ended and what caused them to stop. Peacebuilders, funders and researchers will find an extensive catalogue of organisations with similar interests with which they can collaborate. Scholars and teachers will find the book as a helpful resource for courses on political violence.

Rezensionen

"Where has this book been all my life? How can we understand the dynamics of war and peace without it? Peace and Conflict Since 1991 will become an essential source of information and a basis for analysis on the desk of every peacebuilding NGO and government agency, as well as academic institutions, worldwide."-Chic Dambach, President Emeritus, National Peace Corps Association, and former CEO, Alliance for Peacebuilding
