THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER 'When one of the world's leading
scholars of civil war tells us that a country is on the brink of
violent conflict, we should pay attention. This is an important
book' Steven Levitsky and Daniel Ziblatt, authors of How
Democracies Die Civil wars are the biggest danger to world peace
today - this book shows us why they happen, and how to avoid them.
We are now living in the world's greatest era of civil wars. While
violence has declined worldwide, major civil wars are now being
fought in countries including Iraq, Syria and Libya, and smaller
civil wars are being fought in India and Malaysia. Even countries
we thought could never experience another civil war - such as the
USA, Sweden and Ireland - are showing signs of unrest. So how can
we stop them? In How Civil Wars Start, acclaimed expert Professor
Barbara F. Walter, who has advised on political violence everywhere
from the CIA to the U.S. Senate to the United Nations, explains the
rise of civil wars and the conditions that create them - not least
when countries are not quite democratic. As democracies across the
world backslide and citizens become more polarised, civil wars will
become even more widespread and last longer than they have in the
past - but this urgent and important book shows us a path back
toward peace.
