More specifically, it reconceptualises this space by critically analysing mainstream approaches - presenting both conceptual and empirical content. This volume offers a variety of original and insightful contributions to the debates grappling with the adoption of complexity thinking. Insights from Complexity Thinking for Peacebuilding Practice and Evaluation addresses the core dilemma that practitioners have to confront: how to function in situations that are fast changing and complex, when equipped with tools designed for neither? How do we reconcile the tension between the use of linear causal logic and the dynamic political transitions that interventions are meant to assist? Readers will be given a rare opportunity to superimpose the latest conceptual innovations with the latest case study applications and from a diverse spectrum of organisational vantage points. This provides the myriad practitioners and consultants in this space with invaluable insights as to how to improve their trade craft, while ensuring policy makers and the accompanying research/academic industry have clearer guidance and innovative thinking. 588 0 Online resource; title from PDF title page (EBSCO, viewed August 19, 2016). 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Humanitarian intervention.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /subjects/sh99002227 650 0 Peace-building.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2003003065 650 7 Humanitarian intervention.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/963572 650 7 Peace-building.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1055902 650 7 Warfare & defence.|2bicssc 650 7 International relations.|2bicssc 650 7 Peace studies & conflict resolution.|2bicssc 650 7 POLITICAL SCIENCE|xGovernment|xInternational.|2bisacsh 650 7 POLITICAL SCIENCE|xInternational Relations|xGeneral. |2bisacsh 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Brusset, Emery,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2004089839|eeditor. 700 1 De Coning, Cedric,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ nb2001073382|eeditor. 700 1 Hughes, Bryn W.,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2010056357|eeditor. 776 08 |iPrinted edition:|z9781137601100 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1195023|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
