Crossing disciplinary boundaries, this volume by A-zerdem and
Roberts conceptualizes the challenges of developing sustainable
agriculture in post-conflict environments as well as identifying
the policies and practical solutions to achieve sustainable
agricultural production which is central to the survival of
humanity. Without sustainable agriculture, populations remain
vulnerable increasing the likelihood of a return to conflict.
Therefore, sustainable agriculture is central to effective
post-conflict recovery that provides human security as well as
stability and rule of law. Unique in combining a comprehensive and
comparative understanding of sustainable agriculture challenges in
post-conflict environments, there is originality in the
interdisciplinary nature of the book. Interdisciplinary often means
bringing together a political scientist and a sociologist, but in
this case it means bringing together natural and social scientists,
as well as those with practical experience in development and
agricultural contexts. By adopting a holistic multi-disciplinary
approach which identifies key themes and case studies, this book
sets the scene for the debate surrounding sustainable agriculture
in post-conflict environments. Seeing 'fixing' agriculture as more
than merely a technical matter, the volume focuses on this critical
post-conflict challenge with social, political and cultural
characteristics and consequences as well as the obvious economic
ones.
