State, Violence and Development by Mark Chingono

Taking Mozambique as a case study, this volume examines the relationship between violence and development, focusing on the possibility of a civil society emerging from the ruins of war. Rather than viewing war in purely negative terms, or depicting the dispossessed as mere passive victims of violence, the author argues that war as an historical process can produce multiple consequences, some of which are positive in the long-term.
