Описание: When the September 11, 2001 attacks in the United States occurred—causing that nation to wage wars of revenge in Afghanistan and Iraq—the people of Burundi were recovering from nearly forty years of violence, genocide and civil wars that had killed nearly one million and produced another million refugees. Here in this small East African nation, one of the four poorest nations on earth, however, was a desire for reconciliation—not revenge—and it still runs deep today. The University of Ngozi in northern Burundi was created in 1999 and is now dedicated to peace, reconciliation and sustainable development. People in this region tell remarkable stories of tragedy and recovery amid these horrors. Their stories can inspire others to preserve their humanity and resist the urge to continue the violence, focusing instead on forgiveness, reconciliation and a better way forward. This volume presents case study analysis while pointing to the promise of a new kind of education that is committed to sustainable peace and development. The lessons here for the rest of the world are deep and inspiring.

Описание: This book reflects on the life and politics of Nelson Mandela (1918-2013), and his efforts to broker peace and reconciliation in a deeply divided country. Through examples from apartheid South Africa, it explores conflict and methods for realising peace, social justice and democracy.
Among postwar political leaders, West German Chancellor Willy Brandt played one of the most significant roles in reconciling Germans with other Europeans and in creating the international framework that made possible peaceful reunification in 1990. Based on extensive research including his personal papers, international archives, and interviews with his contemporaries, this book traces Brandt's nearly lifelong efforts toward the full reintegration of Germany into the community of European nations. Here, Benedikt Schoenborn gives us a Brandt who passionately insisted on the interdependence of German history, reunification, and a lasting European peace, while remaining strategically and intellectually adaptable in a way that exemplified the "imaginativeness of history."

In 1995, South Africa’s new government set up the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, a lynchpin of the country’s journey forward from apartheid. In contrast to the Nuremberg Trials and other retributive responses to atrocities, the TRC’s emphasis on reconciliation marked a restorative approach to addressing human rights violations and their legacies. The hearings, headed by Bishop Desmond Tutu, began in spring of 1996.
The commission was set up with three purposes: to investigate abuses, to assist victims with rehabilitation, and to consider perpetrators’ requests for amnesty. More than two decades after the first hearings, the TRC’s legacy remains mixed. Many families still do not know what became of their loved ones, and the commission came under legal challenges both from ex-president F. W. de Klerk and the African National Congress. Yet, the TRC fulfilled a vital role in the transition from apartheid to democracy, and has become a model for other countries.
This latest addition to the Ohio Short Histories of Africa series is a trenchant look at the TRC’s entire, stunningly ambitious project. And as a longtime activist for justice in South Africa and a former commissioner of the TRC, Mary Ingouville Burton is uniquely positioned to write this complex story.

Описание: Post-genocide Narratives of Reconciliation in Rwanda develops a ‘narrative approach to reconciliation’, with Rwanda as case study. Many books on Rwanda have focused on a ‘high level analysis’ of the political context of the country, while many others have, in a less academic register, explored the stories of ordinary people. This book, with a particular focus on reconciliation, uniquely brings together the ‘official’ government narratives of reconciliation with the personal narratives of ordinary people. Drawing from fieldwork in Rwanda that has spanned almost ten years Post-genocide Narratives of Reconciliation in Rwanda explores the negative potential of narratives, through Rwanda’s pre-genocide, genocide and post-genocide periods, as well as the positive potential of narratives in Rwanda’s reconciliation process. Reconciliation has become an integral part of post conflict recovery processes which are largely facilitated by high level actors. For this reason, an approach that examines the intersection between personal and ‘official’ narratives seems pertinent in order to better understand reconciliation processes. The theoretical framework draws from both narrative and reconciliation theory, and a ‘narrative theory of reconciliation’ is thoroughly developed. This title will appeal to specialists interested in Africa, the Great Lakes region and more specifically, Rwanda, as well as those interested in reconciliation, transitional justice and post conflict recovery processes. Because the book explores the narratives of ordinary people, non-academics may also be interested.

Rebellion, insurgency, civil war-conflict within a society is customarily treated as a matter of domestic politics and analysts generally focus their attention on local causes. Yet fighting between governments and opposition groups is rarely confined to the domestic arena. "Internal" wars often spill across national boundaries, rebel organizations frequently find sanctuaries in neighboring countries, and insurgencies give rise to disputes between states.
In Rebels without Borders, which will appeal to students of international and civil war and those developing policies to contain the regional diffusion of conflict, Idean Salehyan examines transnational rebel organizations in civil conflicts, utilizing cross-national datasets as well as in-depth case studies. He shows how external Contra bases in Honduras and Costa Rica facilitated the Nicaraguan civil war and how the Rwandan civil war spilled over into the Democratic Republic of the Congo, fostering a regional war. He also looks at other cross-border insurgencies, such as those of the Kurdish PKK and Taliban fighters in Pakistan. Salehyan reveals that external sanctuaries feature in the political history of more than half of the world's armed insurgencies since 1945, and are also important in fostering state-to-state conflicts.
Rebels who are unable to challenge the state on its own turf look for mobilization opportunities abroad. Neighboring states that are too weak to prevent rebel access, states that wish to foster instability in their rivals, and large refugee diasporas provide important opportunities for insurgent groups to establish external bases. Such sanctuaries complicate intelligence gathering, counterinsurgency operations, and efforts at peacemaking. States that host rebels intrude into negotiations between governments and opposition movements and can block progress toward peace when they pursue their own agendas.
