Dear friends,

Two years ago we approached you for what we called the "Vox EU
project" or "Initiative
column-service on conflict, war, violence, crime, and peace project". We
are proud to present to you the realization of our initiative: a weekly
blog on conflict, posted on three distinguished platforms: United States
Institute of Peace (USIP), the International Network for Economists and
Conflict (INEC) and the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute
(SIPRI).

Our first blog is titled "Can UN Troops Influence Economic Development? The
Case of South Sudan"
The blog is co-authored by Raul Caruso, Assistant Professor at Catholic
University of the Sacred Heart and Roberto Ricciuti, Associate Professor of
Economics at the University of Verona

Enjoy reading!

Engaged Economists Writing About Conflict

The U.S. Institute of Peace, Economists for Peace & Security, and the
Stockholm International Peace Research Institute are partnering together to
provide weekly blogs written by leading peace economists.  These blogs will
discuss issues that are pressing and relevant to the policy, practice and
theory of economics and development in conflict and crisis-affected
contexts. Hosted here on USIP’s International Network for Economics and
Conflict and cross-posted by SIPRI, the blogs aim to move research forward
and promote global discussion and shared learning on economic aspects of
peace and security.  Covering issues from piracy to food security, and
extractive industries to entrepreneurship, these blogs will be concise,
research-based resources for those working to change the situation of the
more than 1.5 billion people living in conflict-affected and fragile
states.  We encourage you to participate in our venture by posting comments
and questions for our expert authors.
