Why the World Goes to War: Causes of Hostility and Paths to Reconciliation
How and why do wars start? At what moment and in what way do parties manage to reach a truce? These questions have been explored by Christopher Blattman for over a decade using the most extensive material – from stories...
of gang groups to well-known confrontations between superpowers. It may seem strange, but the author considers it a misconception that the world is full of violence. In his book, he convincingly, with very understandable life examples, explains that for every major conflict there are thousands or tens of thousands that have been avoided. In the book, he discusses a "framework for understanding the common forces" underlying violent conflicts, and then offers guidance on preventing armed clashes and dealing with their consequences.
