Although group conflict is hardly new, the last decade has seen a
proliferation of conflicts engaging intrastate ethnic groups. It is
estimated that two-thirds of violent conflicts being fought each
year in every part of the globe including North America are ethnic
conflicts. Unlike traditional warfare, civilians comprise more than
80 percent of the casualties, and the economic and psychological
impact on survivors is often so devastating that some experts
believe that ethnic conflict is the most destabilizing force in the
post-Cold War world. Although these conflicts also have political,
economic, and other causes, the purpose of this volume is to
develop a psychological understanding of ethnic warfare. More
specifically, Handbook of Ethnopolitical Conflict explores the
function of ethnic, religious, and national identities in
intergroup conflict. In addition, it features recommendations for
policy makers with the intention to reduce or ameliorate the
occurrences and consequences of these conflicts worldwide.
