'This new edited volume calls attention to the limits of security promotion in war-torn states. In their meticulously researched study, Giustozzi and colleagues underline the mixed record of international efforts to disarm, demobilize and reintegrate former fighters. They show how demobilization and reintegration processes are often connected to the state-building project. In the process, the authors successfully push the boundaries of conventional discourse and practice. They also signal hopeful avenues to sustainably reintegrate soldiers at wars end. Taken together, the volume is an important addition to the critical security studies literature and should be read by scholars and practitioners alike.' Robert Muggah, International Relations Institute, IRI-PUC and Small Arms Survey 'Among the dominant assumptions underlying theory and practice in the field of post-conflict reconstruction is the indispensability of DDR early in the post-conflict period. Indeed the rather rigid model of DDR that has evolved over the past decade has become part of the orthodoxy of UN peace building, part of a sequencing of programs and activities that UN missions rarely deviate from. In recent years, we have seen this orthodoxy increasingly questioned, both in terms of the content of the DDR model and the very utility of the concept to broader processes of peace-building and state-building. This collection of essays edited by Antonio Giustozzi, featuring rich empirical analysis of key DDR case studies, will make an important contribution to that debate and emerging literature. In helping the reader to see DDR not as a discreet standalone reconstruction program, but part of a wider process of state formation, the book should help to catalyze a much needed change of mindset and approach among practitioners and policy-makers alike.'

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes).
