Recenzii
'The role of the private sector - actual and potential - in countries emerging from violent conflict has been woefully under-examined by scholars and policy analysts. Regulating Business for Peace offers valuable insights into the risks and opportunities that business activity can bring to peacebuilding.' Richard Caplan, Oxford University, author of International Governance of War-Torn Territories
