This book explores how to establish peace in societies recovering from large-scale, armed conflicts by introducing the sustaining peace scale as a continuous measure for peacebuilding success.

Drawing on an extensive data collection of peacebuilding episodes over almost three decades, the author analyses the impact of four peacebuilding practices

international commitment, power-sharing, security sector reform and transitional justice. Having established the framework, the author applies it to the peacebuilding processes in Sierra Leone and South Africa.

An important contribution to the literature on successful peacebuilding, this book will be essential reading for peacebuilding scholars and practitioners.

“This book combines theoretical sophistication, methodological rigour and engaging case studies of what determines a sustained peace. It should be regarded as essential reading for all those, both scholars and practitioners, in the peacebuilding field.” Michael Doyle, author of Cold Peace: Avoiding the New Cold War “Combining QCA and process tracing in a coherent research design, this book advances the debate about peacebuilding in post-conflict countries with an empirically rich and methodologically rigorous analysis.” Patrick A.
