Summary:

"This book addresses methodological challenges in contemporary approaches to conflict, violence and peace and development. Whilst classical approaches linked development with peace, security has become central to understandings of both war and peacetime. This book uniquely reflects on how to deal with the convergence of war and peace in the context of global development"-- Provided by publisher.
