Contemporary Conflict Resolution - Miall, Hugh & Ramsbotham, Oliver & Woodhouse, Tom

This book is the first integrated survey of conflict resolution since the end of the Cold War. The authors explore the nature of post-Cold War conflict and the development of conflict resolution. They analyze responses at different phases of conflict, from prevention and intervention in war zones to war endings and post-settlement peace-building. They discuss the scope for complementary action by states, international organizations, non-governmental organizations and local actors. This is an interesting account of the study and practice of conflict resolution -- as a global enterprise and an essential art.
