Reviews

This book will be of interest to a wide range of students, scholars and practitioners interested in better understanding the notion of 'just peace'. The particulars of the case studies will speak most clearly to scholars and practitioners concerned with Israel-Palestine and Bosnia-Herzegovina, especially those working from within an EU context. However, the theoretical contributions made in the introduction and part 1 of the volume, and the lessons gleaned from part 2, have much broader applicability. This book is therefore important reading for anyone concerned with better understanding the relationship between peace and justice, and the changing nature of contemporary peacebuilding. - Christina Woolner, University of Hargeisa, Somliland
