Summary
Chapter 9, the conclusion, provides a brief summary of the book’s main argument and discusses its generalizability. To do so, it draws on examples that illustrate how the book’s theory might generalize to other cases such as Burundi, Côte d’Ivoire, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, as well as cases such as Colombia, Peru, and India. The chapter then discusses how the main argument can inform broader theorizing about the relationship between democratization, political violence, and postconflict politics. Finally, it reflects on potential lessons learned from a close study of land rights, group narratives, and violence.
