Peace Formation and Political Order in Conflict Affected Societies

About this book

International actors, including key states like the US and organizations such as the UN, EU, African Union, and World Bank, and a range of NGOs, have long been confronted with the question of how to achieve an emancipatory form of peace. This book argues that the localized formation of peace has not been examined closely enough. Yet it provides important 'navigation points for policymakers' and the crucial and, so far, often-missing legitimacy for wider peacebuilding and statebuilding efforts.
