Pilfering the Peace explores the issues at the nexus of corruption, conflict, and peacebuilding in a short and accessible manner. Written over a decade ago, this volume of the Life & Peace Institute journal series – New Routes – pulls together insightful analysis grounded in examples from Burundi, Liberia, the Caucasus, Lebanon, Colombia, and the DRC, among others. The material has aged well, as it continues to serve as a compass for practitioners, donors, and scholars alike in understanding and shaping programs responsive to the multi-dimensional relationships between conflict, corruption, peacebuilding, and anti-corruption.
This volume explores themes such as: how corruption acts as a driver of conflict; why peacebuilders can and should address corruption; the tensions between tolerating corruption to achieve peace agreements in the short-run and undermining positive peace in the long-run; which anti-corruption tools might be most applicable to post-conflict contexts; and the conflict-sensitivity of anti-corruption work.
Journal articles by: Raymond June, Nathaniel Heller, Michael Johnston, Peter Uvin, Gaelle Kibranian, Daniel Friedman, Matt Herbert, Phyllis Dininio, Oscar Bloh, Ambrose James, Amy Margolies, and Corinna Kreidler.
