Comparative Peace Processes in Latin America by Cynthia J Arnson
This book is about ending guerrilla conflicts in Latin America through political means. It discusses peace processes aimed at ending military conflicts in the context of agreements that touch on some of the principal political, economic, social, and ethnic imbalances that led to conflict in the first place.
"This is a valuable collection, well organized and professionally edited" -- Terrorism and Political Violence
"There is, in short, a great deal in this book that will be of interest. It will be a useful addition to the all-too-small literature on successful peace processes, as well as offering new comparative insights to the literature on the countries concerned."
"Editor Arnson and 19 collaborators. . . assess the factors that contribute to a nation-state's capacity to reconstruct a functioning and more democratic society after that society has been riven by internal armed conflict. . . The volume has a high degree of internal consistency among the case studies, and Arnson provides both a clear introduction and an insightful conclusion. Recommended." -- J. A. Rhodes * CHOICE *
