Advances in understanding international peacemaking

"The Grant program of the United States Institute of Peace provides support to a wide range of individuals and nonprofit organizations from around the world, including scholars, diplomats, negotiators, and documentary filmmakers. This volume ... presents some of the insights, analyses, and conclusions that have resulted from their work. Grantees have studied conflicts and peace processes in all regions of the globe, reflected on their involvement in international negotiations or as members of truth commissions, conducted comparative scholarly research, filmed documentaries on several post-conflict situations, and developed a range of policy suggestions dealing with conflict management and peacemaking. All the materials summarized here come from grants whose products were completed between 2000 and 2005. They include 117 books, edited volumes, articles, monographs, and films" -- p. 7.
