Privatizing Peace: From Conflict to Security

This innovative book explores strategies for establishing a secure and lasting peace after conflict resolution. Drawing on first-hand experience of World Bank and UN initiatives, the authors pinpoint weaknesses in recent peacekeeping missions, as well as the blind spots in the thinking that guided them. Even more significantly, they clearly demonstrate the ways in which well-meaning stabilization and reconstruction programs fail to accommodate the economic and social imperatives of war-torn societies.Nat J.
