Retaliation is associated with all forms of social and political
organization, and retaliatory logics inform many different conflict
resolution procedures from consensual settlement to compensation to
violent escalations. This book derives a concept of retaliation
from the overall notion of reciprocity, defining retaliation as the
human disposition to strive for a reactive balancing of conflicts
and injustices. On Retaliation presents a synthesized approach to
both the violence-generating and violence-avoiding potentials of
retaliation. Contributors to this volume touch upon the interaction
between retaliation and violence, the state's monopoly on
legitimate punishment and the factors of socio-political
frameworks, religious interpretations and economic processes.
