Conflict is the heart of international relations and at the end of
the 20th century it is occuring in new and vexing forms. This
textbook looks at conflict both as an important new subject in its
own right and as a powerful lens through which to view
international relations more generally. Hauss provides an
introduction to theory and practice. He opens by retracing 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.
Jauss 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, provide readers with the material they can
use to form their own judgement about the theories.
