Why does peace fail? More precisely, why do some countries that
show every sign of having successfully emerged from civil war fall
once again into armed conflict? What explains why peace "sticks"
after some wars but not others? In this illuminating study, Charles
T. Call examines the factors behind fifteen cases of civil war
recurrence in Africa, Asia, the Caucasus, and Latin America. He
argues that widely touted explanations of civil war - such as
poverty, conflict over natural resources, and weak states - are far
less important than political exclusion. Call's study shows that
inclusion of former opponents in postwar governance plays a
decisive role in sustained peace. "Why Peace Fails" ultimately
suggests that the international community should resist the
temptation to prematurely withdraw resources and peacekeepers after
a transition from war. Instead, international actors must remain
fully engaged with postwar elected governments, ensuring that they
make room for former enemies.

volume examines the policies and practices of rising powers on
peacebuilding. It analyzes how and why their approaches differ from
those of traditional donors and multilateral institutions. The
policies of the rising powers towards peacebuilding may
significantly influence how the UN and others undertake
peacebuilding in the future. This book is an invaluable resource
for practitioners, policy makers, researchers and students who want
to understand how peacebuilding is likely to evolve over the next
decades.
There is increasing consensus among scholars and policy analysts
that successful peacebuilding can occur only in the context of
capable state institutions. But how can legitimate and sustainable
states best be established in the aftermath of civil wars? And what
role should international actors play in supporting the vital
process?Addressing these questions, this state-of-the-art volume
explores the core challenges involved in institutionalizing
postconflict states. The combination of thematic chapters and
in-depth case studies covers the full range of the most vexing and
diverse problems confronting domestic and international actors
seeking to build states while building peace.Explores how
sustainable states can best be established in the aftermath of
civil wars, and the role that international actors can play in
supporting the vital process.
