“Disarming Conflict made me want to stand up and cheer – finally, a book that confronts, articulately and impeccably, modern assumptions about the utility of war in resolving global disputes. Regehr’s book is a meticulously researched call to disarm and proves why he is Canada’s preeminent thinker on conflict issues, challenging readers and policy-makers to question the effectiveness of our rising militarism. I will be quoting liberally from Disarming Conflict for years to come.”

– Dr. Samantha Nutt, author of Damned Nations: Greed, Guns, Armies and Aid and founder of War Child Canada
