Peacebuilding and the related sectors of international development, humanitarian relief, and diplomacy are areas that now require an increasingly nuanced understanding of theory, process, and impact. Individuals who understand how to integrate peacebuilding across these disciplines are becoming central in the struggle for sustaining peace as globalization continues to bring cultures closer together. "Integrated Peacebuilding: Innovative Approaches to Transforming Conflict" addresses the importance of weaving peacebuilding into diverse sectors ranging from development, business, gender and health, areas where such work is needed the most. Leading academics and practitioners discuss both the ethical challenges, theory, and practice of integrated peacebuilding through exploring how peacebuilding integrates across diverse sectoral areas. "Integrated Peacebuilding" is the perfect text for courses on peacebuilding, conflict resolution, international development, gender mainstreaming, or any course discussing the politics and practice of peace and conflict.

Industry Reviews

"In my opinion, there isn't another book in the field quite like Integrated Peacebuilding. The range of topics and the depth of analysis in each of the fourteen chapters is simply awe-inspiring. The book also delicately straddles development theory, international relations, and peace studies in an accessible way. A remarkable feat." --Clement Adibe, DePaul University "I have rarely seen a book that is so logically constructed and conceptually tied together as this one. I am impressed with this volume because it offers a perfect blend of academic thinking and application. It also systematically analyzes the various aspects of peacemaking, peacebuilding, and conflict resolution." --Dipak K. Gupta, San Diego State University "Words count. Definitions are important. When concepts are not clear the action that follows is not as effective as it could be. This book is a disciplined attempt to bring coherence to an emerging field. It is a must read for any student and practitioner of peacebuilding. Policymakers will be well served by taking the integrated approach suggested in these pages. All scholars will appreciate the breadth of a book that is clearly advancing our shared understanding of a dynamic field for study and practice." --Andrea Bartoli, George Mason University
