Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Post-peace agreement violence is examined as a manageable political phenomenon, often arising from flaws in peace accords. The author highlights the role of international actors in mediation and reconstruction efforts, while identifying "spoilers"—violent groups that threaten peace processes. Through a mixed-method approach and a global dataset on spoiling, the book reveals that such violence is predictable and can expose weaknesses in agreements, ultimately prompting parties to recommit and potentially strengthen long-term peace.
