Conflict and Peace Building in Divided Societies

Focusing on conflict management in deeply divided societies, this book explores the dynamics of protracted insurgency and civil war through a theoretical lens. It provides detailed case studies, including the Northern Ireland peace process, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and the Bosnian war, illustrating the complexities of ethnic, linguistic, and national divisions. The integrated analysis offers insights into both the challenges and strategies for achieving conciliation in such contentious environments.
