Preventive Diplomacy : Stopping Wars Before They Start
ISBN: 9780415922852 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.

History however has shown that military interventions and economic sanctions often do more harm than good. In this work, Nobel Prize winners, officials, and thinkers tackle these issues and explore the process of conflict prevention from humanitarian, economic, and political perspectives.
