Reviews

'A provocative and original contribution to the fields of international relations, constructivism, security studies, civil war studies, US foreign policy and especially the study of norms in IR. I believe that the book will be a landmark study that will add greatly to the existing literature and will be discussed and debated for some time.' Richard Jackson, Deputy Director at the National Centre for Peace and Conflict Studies (NCPACS), University of Otago -- .
