A better understanding of regime changes, and their drivers, is
vital to understanding the root causes of conflict and instability.
In doing so, national and international actors can develop
appropriate strategies to address, curb and prevent escalations of
violence when these transitions occur. This innovative book
explores the motivations and impacts of regime change and political
transition in the contemporary era. Systematically examining the
drivers, formats and long term impacts of transitions, the
contributors seek to identify patterns, commonalities, and
disjunctures between them. Bringing together leading scholars and
practitioners with longstanding relationships to the conflicts they
have covered, this book provides systematic cross-case examinations
of regime change. It examines the structural and immediate triggers
of transitions both external and internal, as well as shedding
light on the ways in which everyday life is changed by them --? for
better or worse. Providing a framework for typological and
comparative analysis, this book provides ontological and
epistemological perspectives on 14 case studies of regime change
following civil wars, secessionist conflicts, popular revolutions,
military rule and foreign intervention. This book is a vital tool
for academics and students of political science, development,
history, regional, peace and conflict studies. Reflecting on regime
change processes spanning different regions and types of
transition, The Elgar Companion to Post Conflict Transition is an
accessible way to cover key debates. Contributors include: A.-G.
