500 _a"With an empirical focus on Sri Lanka, this book advances our understanding of violent and nonviolent forms of ethnic conflicts by challenging 'billiard ball analyses' which cast ethnic groups as relatively unified entities that interact in the 'inter-group arena'. The book illustrates that if conflict management efforts do not explicitly incorporate inter- and intra-group considerations, then they are doomed to be sub-optimal at best, and conflict-inducing at worst."--Jacket
