Summary "This book explains why neither military nor civilian agencies can act alone in managing modern conflicts and why joint civil-military efforts are needed. As the record of peace operations interventions over nearly a decade and a half since the end of the Cold War demonstrates that the international community is doing badly at creating civil-military partnerships, the author argues that those efforts must be deliberately planned from the outset of an operation and cannot be added on as afterthoughts when all else has failed."--BOOK JACKET
