Peacemaking and the Extractive Industries: Towards a Framework for Corporate Peace
Natalie Ralph

"This is a terrific addition to business and peace literature. Ralph offers a provocative conceptual model and the fact that it derives from extractives, which so often find themselves in conflict-sensitive zones, makes for a great set of practical examples." - Timothy L. Fort, Everleigh Chair in Business Ethics, Indiana University

This book explores the diplomatic role of corporations in peace processes in intrastate conflict, focusing on transnational extractive corporations but applicable to all industries. Ralph presents a new framework for corporate peacemaking and argues it could be a powerful tool in global governance and peace efforts.
