Confict or Development? For Sale Here
Written in clear English, with
informative maps, tables, and graphs, this volume is designed to
inform the debate among policymakers, activists, journalists, academics,
students, and citizens worldwide.
Conflict or Development? has a
further regional focus on Africa. Joseph Stiglitz discusses the
role of information in conflict and draws a fascinating analogy
between civil strife and a labor strike. Paul Collier and Neil Cooper
take different positions on the prospects for reforming war economies,
and E. Wayne Nafziger gives details of the evolution of humanitarian
emergencies. In the two country studies, Tilman Brück examines
the destruction and reconstruction of Mozambique, and Manuel Ferreira
discusses the civil war in Angola. Paul Dunne tells the story of
South Africa's defense contractor Denel from its origins under apartheid
until today, and David Gold describes the context and history of
the current actions against "Conflict Diamonds." In the
chapter on "Trends in World Military Expenditure," Jurgen
Brauer reflects on the weight imposed by the world's military burden.
