Peace on Bougainville: Truce Monitoring Group: Gudpela Nius Bilong Peace (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780864734082)

This is a unique look at the country of Bougainville, its people, their history, and their move towards peace told from the perspectives of the people involved both within and outside of the process. The book traces the peace movement from November 20, 1997, when unarmed monitors from New Zealand, Australia, Vanuatu, and Fiji arrived in Bougainville with the agreement of the Papua New Guinea government and most of the political factions on Bougainville. Their task was to establish a secure atmosphere in which Bougainvilleans could forge their own peaceful solution to the conflict. The individual viewpoints show how the fragile road towards a peaceful outcome was constructed.
