" A]n important contribution to scholarship.... rigorous and
intelligible." Patrick James, University of Missouri
International Change and the Stability of Multiethnic States
contributes to the debate over ethnic conflict and cooperation in
multiethnic states destabilized by the changing environment of the
post Cold War era, proposing a new way of viewing and dealing with
these problems. Through an analysis of important moments in the
history of two prominent multiethnic societies the former
Yugoslavia and Lebanon in which nonstate actors such as communal
groups played important roles in events that determined the fates
of both states, Badredine Arfi builds a general theory of how the
governance of multiethnic societies is transformed under changing
international conditions. His work provides new insights on how
policymaking can be improved to respond to the challenges posed by
the creation, maintenance, transformation, and, when it occurs,
collapse of state governance in multiethnic societies. This timely
work will interest scholars of international relations and
comparative politics, regional specialists, policymakers, and
activists."
