| Summary: | This book deals with processes of disarmament, demobilization and reintegration of former combatants in a broad variety of postwar contexts (Côte d'Ivoire, Peru, Chechnya, Kurdistan, Colombia, France, Canada, Russia, Serbia, Uganda, Sardinia), in an attempt to bring together scholars from various disciplines, mostly historians (of the First and the Second World Wars) and political scientists. Back to classical approaches of DDR, which are normative and prescriptive and focused on the short term, this book attempts to unpack postwar situations as complex inter-connections between political, social and cultural dynamics. It also points out possible difficulties of exiting of the war violence. |
