For the last thirty years Somalia has experienced violence and
upheaval. Today, the international effort to help Somalis build a
federal state and achieve stability is challenged by deep-rooted
grievances, local conflicts and a powerful insurgency led by
Al-Shabaab. Consisting of forty-four chapters by conflict
resolution specialists and the world's leading experts on Somalia,
this volume constitutes a unique compendium of insights into the
insurgency and its impact. War and Peace in Somalia explores the
legacies of past violence, especially impunity, illegitimacy and
exclusion, and the need for national reconciliation. Drawing on
decades of experience and months of field research, the
contributors throw light on diverse forms of local conflict, its
interrelated causes, and what can be done about it. They share
original research on the role of women, men and youth in the
conflict, and present new insight into Al-Shabaab--particularly the
group's multi-dimensional strategy, the motivations of its
fighters, their foreign links, and the prospects for engagement.
This ground-breaking volume illuminates the war in Somalia, and
sets out what can and should be done to bring it to an end. For
policymakers and researchers covering Somalia, East Africa,
extremism or conflict resolution, this is a must-read.
