Committing to Peace

The Successful Settlement of Civil Wars

Edición de la obra Committing to Peace

Using data on every civil war fought between 1940 and 1992, details the conditions that lead combatants to partake in a three-step process--the decision on whether to initiate negotiations, to compromise, and finally, to implement any resulting terms. Key finding: rarely are such conflicts resolved without active third-party intervention. Includes case studies on the civil war in Zimbabwe and the breakdown of Rwanda's peace process. [back cover].
