Reviews

Conflict Intervention and Transformation is an important new and critical text within Peace and Conflict Studies. Ho-Won Jeong does an excellent job of focusing the text with a number of important scholars writing chapters on discursive practices, peace negotiations, and identity and space in conflict transformation. This textbook will be used in graduate seminars and will be well read by scholars and policymakers interested in how to transform conflicts constructively. -- Sean Byrne, PACS, University of Manitoba This book presents a great combination of innovative theoretical applications and context specific empirical analysis. Its broad range of topics is held together by the common themes of conflict transformation, inclusivity and exclusivity, and the role of civil society, making it an essential read for anyone who wants to understand and promote peace. -- Patrik Johansson, Senior Lecturer in Political Science, Umea University, Sweden This timely and innovative volume systematically explores the contribution of discursive practice at the interface of peacemaking and the sustainable transformation of entrenched conflict dynamics. Presenting new approaches to enhancing the inclusion of alternative and marginalized voices, it provides a key resource for both scholars and practitioners seeking to tackle seemingly intractable conflict systems. -- Andrea Warnecke, Marie Curie Research Fellow, Department of International Politics, Aberystwyth University The subject of conflict management is one of dynamism and therefore characterized by change, continuity, adaptation to new realities, and continuous revisiting by scholars of peace studies. This edited volume captures all of these characteristics and make it a holistic and rigorous analysis of the subject and therefore the most comprehensive to date. The approach used in the volume is well structured, coherent, and engaging. It is a must read for upper-level undergraduates, graduate students, and practitioners of peacemaking and peacebuilding. -- Earl Conteh-Morgan, Professor of International Studies, University of South Florida
