An essential and accessible guide to the assessment of the effectiveness of peace-building policies for all those working in, or studying, the area.

Measuring Peace adds significantly and provocatively to a fractious and controversial but nevertheless enduring conversation about what peace is - conceptually, operationally and practically - as well as considering how we should study this crucial phenomenon.
