Peacemaking in International Conflict: Methods and Techniques, eds. I. William Zartman and J. Lewis Rasmussen, (Washington DC: United States Institute of Peace Press, 1997).

 
This collection of essays offers a contemporary overview of approaches to international peacemaking.  The end of the Cold War has changed the nature of international conflicts, creating new challenges for peacemaking.   Initial essays explore this new context.  Subsequent chapters describe different peacemaking techniques.  Essays examine peacemaking from the perspective of diplomats and non-governmental organizations, respectively.  A final essay examines the role of training in international peacemaking. The text includes a brief Foreword by Richard H. Solomon, and biographical sketches of the contributing authors.
