Postmodern Insurgencies : Political Violence, Identity Formation and Peacemaking in Comparative Perspective (2000 ed.)

This book explores the nature of insurgency in the post Cold War.

It proposes a bold new post structuralist theoretical framework and practical democratic strategies.

A wide range of contributors, many with hands-on experience, examine conflicts and conflict resolution in Sri Lanka, El Salvador, Argentina, South Africa, Palestine, Ethiopia, Somalia, and Ireland, along with original studies of Islam and globalization and of the "engendering" of war.
