From the Ground Up: Perspectives on Post-Tsunami and Post-Conflict Aceh - Paperback

by Patrick Daly (Editor), R. Michael Feener (Editor), Anthony J. S. Reid (Editor)

Even though the funds had been donated for tsunami relief, any real reconstruction of Aceh had to consider the impact of the conflict on the well-being of the population, as well as governance and administrative capacities.
