Ulteriori informazioni

This book examines the peacebuilding efforts in Côte d’Ivoire after the 2002–2011 civil war, highlighting the complex dynamics of conflict resolution and social cohesion in fragile states. It analyzes historical, political, and socio-economic contexts, and provides practical insights to address inequalities and strengthen sustainable peace in Africa and beyond.
The book further scrutinizes UN-supported programs and various conflict resolution strategies, including mediation, negotiation, arbitration, and military intervention, as they are applied in Côte d’Ivoire and other African contexts. Key chapters explore the root causes of Ivorian conflicts, such as economic disparities, ethnic tensions, and political power struggles, and discuss the challenges of disarmament and economic instability. 
The book highlights the importance of community dialogue, reconciliation, and local leadership, especially women, to advance harmony and address social inequalities. It critically analyzes external influences and evaluates international and regional peacebuilding strategies. The book will appeal to students, scholars, and researchers of political science, international relations, African studies, security studies, and the social sciences, as well as policy-makers interested in a better understanding of peacebuilding in Côte d’Ivoire, Africa, and beyond.
