War, Hunger, and Displacement: Volume 1 by E Wayne Nafziger

Since the end of the cold war, the number of civil wars in developing countries has escalated to the point where they are the most significant source of human suffering in the world today. Although there are many political analyses of these emergencies, this two-volume work is the first comprehensive study of the economic, social, and political roots of humanitarian emergencies, identifying early measures to prevent such disasters.
This work may well be opening up a new research arenaBy explicitly framing the analysis in a political economy approach, and by visualizing various forms of state failure and institutional collapse, these studies raise troublesome questions for the international community. * Development and Change *
This major two volume study on a subject of increasing importance, deserves wide attention. * Development Policy Review *
Everyone interested in the issues and regions discussed will find considerable value in these books, which deserve a place in any serious library. * Martin Shaw, Journal of Development Studies *
