he authors of this insightful volume make an eloquent and convincing case.... Drawing on many sources of expertise, they debate each other and in doing so engage readers searching for an image of what a sustainable peace might be for war-torn Iraq."—Michael Doyle, Columbia University.
"This volume brings together many authoritative voices, all offering options to help avoid the worst in Iraq. The editors have done a masterful job of eliciting a broad range of informed opinion, allowing readers to draw conclusions of their own."—Lakhdar Brahimi, former Special Representative of the UN Secretary-General in Iraq and Afghanistan.
An enduring epicenter of conflict and instability in the Middle East, Iraq has not only experienced domestic upheavals, but also generated threats to international peace and security for more than 25 years. Is an end to the violence, and the establishment of an enduring peace within a unified state, a realistic goal? How can it be achieved, and what may stand in its way? Addressing these questions —and arguing that a downward spiral of violence and possible state collapse can be avoided —the authors of Iraq Preventing a New Generation of Conflict consider the sources of conflict in the country and outline the requirements for a successful peacebuilding enterprise.
