The Paradoxes of Peacebuilding Post-9/11 (Paperback): Stephen Baranyi The Paradoxes of Peacebuilding Post-9/11 (Paperback)

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.

On issues pertaining to women and girls, Stephen Harper's federal government positioned Canada as a "beacon of light" in the world. Programs were developed in relation to women's maternal health and the protection of the girl child, but other actions point to an ambiguous and even contradictory approach that failed to address gender inequality. In Obligations and Omissions, contributors examine Canada's equivocal - and diminished - role in working toward gender equality in the period between 2006 and 2015. Using a critical feminist lens to document, analyze, and challenge Canada's relations with the Global South, chapters explore the extent to which matters of gender equality have been erased or exploited under the Harper government and the factors that explain these policy shifts. While the contributors document successes in Canada's approach to some issues facing women and girls around the world, they also show many problems with the ways that agenda was framed and implemented under the Conservative government. Drawing on rich theoretical investigation, empirical research, and discourse analysis, Obligations and Omissions reveals a complex picture of diverse practices, underscoring the implications of these actions for communities in the Global South, for Canada's image in the international community, and for future governments in the pursuit of a renewed gender equality strategy.
