What kind of peace is possible in the post-9/11 world? Is
sustainable peace an illusion in a world where foreign military
interventions are replacing peace negotiations as starting points
for postwar reconstruction?
Grappling with these questions, this book presents six provocative
case studies authored by respected peacebuilding practitioners in
their own societies. The studies address two cases of relative
success (Guatemala and Mozambique), three cases of renewed but
deeply fraught efforts (Afghanistan, Haiti, and the Palestinian
Territories), and the case of Sri Lanka, where peacebuilding was
aborted but where the outlines of a new peace process can be
discerned. The book also includes original analyses of
demobilization, disarmament, and reintegration processes in three
different contexts, written by teams of analysts from both the
Northern and Southern hemispheres.
In this timely volume--which will interest practitioners, students
and policymakers--Baranyi gives a voice to Southern researchers in
what has been historically a Northern-dominated debate.
