The School of Peace and Conflict Studies is proud to announce the publication of Local Peacebuilding and Legitimacy, edited by SPCS Associate Professor Landon Hancock and Christopher Mitchell, Professor Emeritus of Conflict Analysis and Resolution at George Mason University. This volume, their third in the Zones of Peace series examines questions of why many peacebuilding efforts are hampered by their inability to gain the support of those they are trying to help at the local level. Chapters examine peacebuilding efforts in Colombia, Northern Ireland, Kashmir, Mexico, Nepal, Mexico, Sudan and Somaliland.
The first two books in the series are:
Zones of Peace, 2007 and
Local Peacebuilding and National Peace, 2012
Special notice! For 60 days (beginning 6/28/18), you can read the full text of Local Peacebuilding and Legitimacy for free.
