Theory and Practice in Ethnic Conflict Management: Theorizing Success and Failure

by Jay Rothman and Marc Howard Ross

Book Overview

Throughout the world there are efforts both large and small to address ethnic conflicts--identity based disputes between groups who are unable to live side-by-side in the same state. This collection of case studies of interventions in ethnic conflicts throughout the world asks how projects themselves understand success and failure in ethnic conflict resolution. It emphasizes the complexity and importance of better understanding the ways in which small-scale interventions can sometimes have a large impact on large-scale ethnic conflict.
