Recenzje

A lot is known about why people rebel, but little is understood about how rebels quit. Under what circumstances do they feel sufficiently confident about their personal safety to be able to retire from armed struggle and return to everyday life? Sen's fine work provides an answer to this question - an important one for policy - based on scrupulous analysis of data drawn from years of field research in areas of North and South India that have had contrasting experiences. The book is an outstanding original contribution to the literature on insurgency.
