"The art of successful negotiations over protracted conflicts presupposes a political commitment to peace and a willingness to compromise, which are sorely lacking in the current disorderly world. Part of the blame for this lies in weak and ineffective national and global leadership. This book's sharp focus on the role of leadership at different levels--national government, rebel and Western/regional government mediators--as well as that of the UN and non-governmental players in settling intra-state disputes, is a unique feature which sets it apart from others.
