Stewart and Knaus parse carefully the philosophies that have informed interventionism—from neoconservative to liberal imperialist—and draw on their diverse experiences in the military, nongovernmental organizations, and the Iraqi provincial government to reveal what we can ultimately expect from large-scale interventions, and how they might best realize positive change in the world.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRory Stewart\u003c\/b\u003e is a member of the British Parliament and the former Ryan Professor of Human Rights Policy at Harvard University’s Kennedy School.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eGerald Knaus\u003c\/b\u003e, founding chairman of the European Stability Initiative, is a Carr Center Fellow at Harvard University’s Kennedy School.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                    \n                \n            \u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Best Bookstore","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":46553070108833,"sku":"BBSNIJ9780393081206","price":26.6,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0525\/2084\/5473\/files\/9780393081206.jpg?v=1781725418","url":"https:\/\/www.bestbookstore.ca\/products\/can-intervention-work-hardcover-by-rory-a-stewart-gerald-knaus","provider":"Best Book Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
