Summary |
"As nongovernmental organizations play a growing role in the international response to armed conflict, tasked with mitigating the effects of war and helping to end the violence - there is an acute need for information on the impact they are actually having. Addressing this need, Aiding Peace? explores just how NGOs interact with conflict and peace dynamics, and with what results."--BOOK JACKET |
