Review Quotes:

"Peace and Resistance in Youth Cultures sums up a lifetime of work by McEvoy-Levy, illustrating the importance of engaging youth in post-conflict peace processes, as well as considering how children and youth put forward different ideas of peace. ... This is a worthy project, supported by her accounts in important ways." (Kate Macfarlane, Journal of Intervention and Statebuilding, August 30, 2020)
