REPORT


Rethinking Political Violence Series Series editor: Roger Mac Ginty, Professor of Peace and Conflict Studies, University of Manchester, UK This exciting series provides a space in which to interrogate and challenge much of the conventional wisdom on political violence. Books in the series are at the forefront of research, pushing forward new debate in the field of political violence without rehashing clichés about security, violence and ‘terrorism’. Authors from both the critical and orthodox perspectives use the book series to reappraise some of the fundamental questions facing societies on how to deal with and interpret organised violence. Many of the books in the series are comparative, draw on fieldwork, and use insights from a variety of methodologies. Titles include: Aoibhín de Búrca PREVENTING POLITICAL VIOLENCE AGAINST CIVILIANS Nationalist Militant Conflict in Northern Ireland, Israel and Palestine Christina Steenkamp VIOLENT SOCIETIES David Martin Jones and M.L.R.
