Krátky popis
Do boycotts work? Should arms sales be stopped? What about
supplying weapons to the good guys? In How Wars End an
international expert explains how we can act to bring about peace
in an age of escalating war.In 2003 Jan van Aken almost helped stop
a war. But as he was preparing to go to Baghdad to search for
biological weapons, he got a message: the US was determined to
avenge 9/11 and wouldnt wait for UN inspections to take place. The
invasion went ahead, and only years later, the world discovered
that Iraq had had no biological weapons at that time.From this
experience and the many others he has had as a weapons inspector,
conflict analyst and activist, in How Wars End van Aken shows how
conflict resolution really works. From disinformation and dodgy
dossiers to chemical weapons and murderous drones, he identifies
why wars start and spiral. And he looks at the alternatives,
including civil initiatives, diplomacy, sanctions, and
international interventions.Interweaving the latest findings from
peace research with stories and examples from Northern Ireland,
Serbia, South Sudan, Afghanistan, Syria, Ukraine, Israel-Palestine
and more, How Wars End lays out evidence-based strategies for
moving from violent conflict to ceasefire, and from ceasefire to
lasting peace.
