| Summary: | "This new textbook looks at conflict both as an important subject in its own right and as a powerful lens through which to view international relations more generally." "Hauss provides an introduction to both theory and practice. He traces the three stages in most typologies of international conflict: origins, ending the fighting, and reconciliation. These are discussed both in terms of traditional theories and new theories, some of the latter from outside the usual boundaries of political science and IR. Hauss argues that such new theories take us further in understanding the kinds of conflicts we have seen since the end of the Cold War and are likely to see in the coming decades." "A broad selection of case studies, covering the major conflicts the world has faced since 1990, provides readers with material they can use to form their own judgements about the theories." "This text will be valuable for course use both in IR and peace and conflict resolution studies."--BOOK JACKET. |
