Building Sustainable Peace

This book focuses on creating a sustainable peace as opposed to winning the peace.It is comprised of fifteen papers, which examine and discuss various dimensions of the peace-building and post-conflict reconciliation process.Authored by academics, policy advisors, practitioners and members of the public at large, the papers address issues such as factors that have contributed to the process of resolving civil wars and reconciling divided societies, the different techniques used in the peace-building process, the role of various nongovernmental actors and regional organisations, and the experiences of peace-building efforts in different regions of the world.
