This book aims to fill this evidentiary gap and issues a challenge to 'conventional' approaches to security promotion as currently conceived by military and peace-keeping forces, drawing on cutting-edge statistical and qualitative findings from war-torn areas including Afghanistan, Timor Leste, Sudan, Uganda, Colombia and Haiti. By focusing on specific cases where the United Nations and others have sought to contain the (presumed) sources of post-conflict violence and insecurity, it lays out a new research agenda for measuring success or failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book will be of much interest to students of peacebuilding, peacekeeping, conflict resolution, conflict and development and security studies in general.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eForeword \u003cem\u003eJean-Marie Guéhenno\u003c\/em\u003e Introduction: The Emperor’s Clothes? \u003cem\u003eRobert Muggah \u003c\/em\u003e1 Colombia’s Quiet Demobilization: A Security Dividend? \u003cem\u003eJorge Restrepo and Robert Muggah \u003c\/em\u003e2 Assessing Progress toward Demobilization and Reintegration in Sierra Leone \u003cem\u003eMacartan Humphreys and Jeremy Weinstein \u003c\/em\u003e3 DDR in Liberia: Reviewing the Gap between Goals and Outcomes \u003cem\u003eJames Pugel \u003c\/em\u003e4 The Reintegration of Child and Youth Combatants in Northern Uganda: Myth and Reality \u003cem\u003eChristopher Blattman and Jeannie Annan \u003c\/em\u003e5 Demobilization and Reintegration Dilemmas in Afghanistan \u003cem\u003eMichael Bhatia and Robert Muggah \u003c\/em\u003e6 What the Veterans’ Say: Unpacking DDR Programmes in Timor-Leste \u003cem\u003eGordon Peake \u003c\/em\u003e7 Context Matters: Ethiopia's Demobilization and Reintegration Programme \u003cem\u003eRobert Muggah and Jon Bennett with Aklu Girgre and Gebru Wolde \u003c\/em\u003e8 (Dis)integrating DDR in Sudan and Haiti?
