Summary

"To Walk Without Fear is a comprehensive and authoritative account of the global movement to ban landmines. It brings together leading academics, senior policy-makers, and prominent leaders of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to examine and draw lessons from the Ottawa Process that culminated in December 1997 when over 120 states signed a Convention to ban the use, sale, and production of landmines."--Jacket.
