When it comes to conflict resolution, is an ounce of prevention worth a pound of cure? Leading scholars lay out an analytical and methodological framework for evaluating this question, and case studies on global hotspots from Bosnia to Somalia, Rwanda, Cambodia, and El Salvador (among others) put it to the test.
Michael E. Brown is associate professor and director of research for the National Security Studies Program at the Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service, Georgetown University. Richard N.

Recensioner i media
Tightly argued, well-illustrated, eminently readable. The authors confront head-on the main methodological problem, how one can foresee a developing conflict situation in time to take preventive measures.
