- Title
Violent victors: why bloodstained parties win postwar elections.
- Authors
Balcells, Laia
- Abstract
Overall, Daly has written an important and thought-provoking book that sheds light on the complex relationship between wartime violence and postwar democratic governance. Sarah Daly's central argument is that bloodstained victors are more credible peace guarantors, and as a result, they often receive support from the population (including victimized communities) in postwar democratic elections. I Violent victors i is a rich, rigorous and comprehensive book that delves into the complex and nuanced relationship between wartime violence and postwar electoral politics, transitional justice and governance.
