This is the first comprehensive volume analysing the value added by
integrating systemic thinking into peacebuilding theory and practice.
The aim of this book is to link the most recent debates in the
peacebuilding field, e.g. on liberal peace, on the non-linearity of
conflict dynamics and on bridging the attribution gap, with various
systemic discourses, discussing the extent to which systemic thinking
and methods are helpful to further develop existing approaches to
conflict transformation.
