Charles T. Call, an associate professor at American University and the editor of two books on peacebuilding, sets out to answer the question of why peace fails after civil wars, focusing on countries in which peace lasted for only a year following the end of the initial conflict. He concludes that while there is no single factor that determines the successful consolidation of peace, political exclusion rather than economic or social factors is the most common cause of civil war recurrence. This is an important book because it highlights the folly of pursuing peacebuilding or developmental efforts that are not grounded in an understanding of the political landscape and a concerted effort to achieve a sustainable political accommodation between the principal parties.
