| Summary |
"After the Conflict brings together a team of leading researchers and professionals with wide involvement in post-conflict scenarios. Drawing upon their extensive experience - which includes Afghanistan, Rwanda, Kosovo, Somalia, and Indonesia - they set out the requirements they have found to be necessary to successful long-term reconstruction. The need for a clear and shared national vision, of proper long-term commitment, the importance of engaging previously excluded groups such as former combatants and returning refugees, and the involvement of external expertise and funding but in locally inspired and managed reconstruction schemes are among the important issues they explore."--BOOK JACKET |
