POLITICAL VIOLENCE DISARMAMENT, DEMOBILIZATION AND REINTEGRATION IN SOUTHERN AFRICA Swords into Ploughshares?
Gwinyayi Albert Dzinesa
Rethinking Political Violence Series editor Roger Mac Ginty Professor of Peace and Conflict Studies University of Manchester Manchester, United Kingdom “This book provides valuable and detailed insights into how in Namibia, South Africa and Zimbabwe some armed forces and armed opposition groups have been reduced or abolished since the 1980s, and the significant challenges and complex practices of supporting the reintegration of former combatants into civilian life. The similarities and differences in the processes are clearly analysed in the context of the liberation, peace and nation-building processes in the three countries.” —Kees Kingma, Independent Analyst on post-war rehabilitation and development and former Senior Social Development Specialist, World Bank, Washington DC, USA
