Many contemporary armed conflicts are fueled by young people, who,
after peace accords are signed, remain both potential threats to
peace and significant peace building resources. Troublemakers or
Peacemakers? explores the contributions of youth and their
multidimensional roles as political activists, soldiers, criminals,
economic actors, peace activists, and community-builders. This
volume breaks new ground in the importance it assigns to the
political agency of children and youth in war zones. Contributors
support their arguments and conclusions with original research
based on intensive fieldwork in places such as Sierra Leone,
Rwanda, Guatemala, Colombia, Angola, Northern Ireland, Bosnia, and
Israel-Palestine. The leading scholars who have contributed to this
volume contend that the puzzle of why peace accords succeed and
fail can be better understood with the use of a multidimensional
youth lens. Troublemakers or Peacemakers? is a vital resource for
anyone interested in conflict resolution and the peace building
process.
