Building Peace, Creating Conflict?: Conflictual Dimensions of Local & International Peacebuilding - Hardcover
Synopsis
One of the most significant challenges facing the international community today is how to secure stability and rebuild societies emerging from civil wars. International peace-building missions have been deployed in a range of countries emerging from civil war. The empirical record of international efforts to advance peace has been mixed. While some post-war countries have made significant strides towards peace and democracy, other countries have experienced a return to war. In yet other cases the outcome has been a partial implementation of peace where new conflicts have been generated in the process. In this book a group of experts discuss the conflictual dimensions of peace-building. The authors specialise in various aspects and cover several themes such as 'frozen conflicts' and 'unending peace processes'; the efficiency of peacekeeping operations in promoting democracy, and individual and collective dimensions of justice and reconciliation.

Building Peace, Creating Conflict? : Conflictual Dimensions of Local and International Peacebuilding
Seller: Buchpark, Trebbin, Germany
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Condition: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | One of the most significant challenges facing the international community today is how to stabilize and rebuild societies emerging from civil wars, and this book, which includes both theoretical discussions and empirical applications, considers the various factors of peacebuilding. As it addresses several pertinent academic debates--relating to international interventions and local ownership, international and local conceptions of gender equality, and the legal aspects of peace implementation--this account demonstrates how some postwar countries have made significant strides towards peace and democracy while others have experienced a return to war. A policy-relevant topic, Building Peace, Creating Conflict? will appeal to students and scholars of international relations and peace studies, as well as to practitioners involved in peacebuilding efforts in war-affected countries.
