The scholarship on display in Strengthening Peace in Post--Civil War States is impeccable, the data are sound, and the ideas are even better.

The book broadens and deepens our consideration of the postconflict state-building process, taking an authoritative angle on a hot debate over a topic of core significance. --I. William Zartman, Johns Hopkins University
