Helen Hintjens is Assistant Professor in Development and Social Justice at the International Institute of Social Studies, The Netherlands. Dubravka Zarkov is Associate Professor in Gender, Conflict and Development Studies at the International Institute of Social Studies, The Netherlands."Helen Hintjens and Dubravka Zarkov’s well-conceived edited volume offers a rich resource for deeper questioning and reflection on the conundrum of how best to promote and build peace and untie the knot that is development, peace and security. Lucid theoretical discussion, critical methodological approaches and in-depth case studies make this book invaluable for students, researchers and yes, also for policymakers." –Eleanor O’Gorman, University of Cambridge, UK
"Helen Hintjens and Dubravka Zarkov have edited an extraordinarily timely book. It critically compares different theoretical and methodological approaches in these incredibly complex fields, by arranging the substantive sections as a series of dialogues around contending approaches which relate to a challenging algebra of ethical and political choices. The result is an easily accessible entry for both undergraduate and postgraduate students into contemporary theories and the rather different praxis of engagement and intervention." –Steve Wright, Leeds Beckett University, UK
"This volume draws together a truly diverse set of theories and methodologies. Yet despite this remarkable range of perspectives, the contributions effectively cohere. The volume as a whole offers a significant contribution to peace studies." –Scott Gates, Peace Research Institute Oslo (PRIO) and Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Norway
