Description
Stopping the Killing: How Civil Wars End by Roy Licklider The legacy of civil wars can be devastating, leaving deep scars that affect not only the societies affected but also the international community. However, these conflicts do inevitably come to an end, as witnessed in the transition from England's medieval past to a unified nation and the eventual reconciliation of Argentina. This book explores the complex process by which individuals and factions who have been engaged in violent conflict can work together to form a common government. A distinguished group of experts examine specific conflicts such as Colombia, Sudan, Yemen, America, Greece, and Nigeria, as well as broader theoretical issues related to civil wars, including the causes of peace, the relationship between the battlefield and the negotiating table, and issues of settlement. Through its analysis, Stopping the Killing sheds light on the challenges of constructing a lasting peace from the ashes of civil violence and chaos.
