Reviews

"Those of us who write about civil wars and intrastate conflict must now consider the innovative insights of Sustainable Peace, particularly its rejections of power sharing as a panacea. Philip G. Roeder and Donald Rothchild tease out better, novel, ideas from a range of important cases. We cannot neglect their findings."-Robert I. Rotberg, Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University "Sustainable Peace will be a must-read for any academic working in the field of ethnic conflict management. Nowhere has the theory of 'power-division' been put forward as comprehensively and as clearly as in this volume. It is certain, therefore, to have a major impact. The collection is global in its scope, with cases from a rich variety of different geographic regions."-John McGarry, Queen's University
