This book explains how violent conflicts can be prevented from becoming intractable. Today's violent conflicts motivated largely by profit-seeking are different from the pro-independence struggles of the 20th century and ideological wars that Huntington's novel book, "Clash of Civilizations" referred to. What needs to be prioritized is creating safe entry points for insurgents-warfighters to participate in re-education and rewarding work opportunities. Insurgency weakens directly as its fighting force, and the prospects of recruiting new fighters diminish. Also, transformed ex-combatants can aid the COIN operation with credible intelligence. Once the development process is rendered immune to disruptions, attaining sustainable security and positive peace become the normal situation. Moreover, the conventional civilian-managed humanitarian support spearheaded by UN agencies is no longer quite effective because aid rarely gets to the most affected areas due to insecurity. Rehabilitating victims has been the preoccupation, although needful, is less a problem now than taking concrete steps to help the insurgents-warfighters switch to productive work.
