Description
Bloomsbury Publishing (UK) Protecting Human Rights and Building Peace in Post-Violence Societies by Nasia Hadjigeorgiou
This book critically examines the relationship between protecting human rights and building peace in post-violence societies. It explores the conditions that must be present and strategies that should be adopted for the former to contribute to the latter. Through an interdisciplinary and comparative analysis of four case studies: Bosnia-Herzegovina Cyprus Northern Ireland and South Africa the book identifies the conditions that can support the effective use of human rights as peacebuilding tools. Developing these the book recommends a series of strategies that peacebuilders should adopt and rely on.
