A definitive global survey of the interaction of ethnicity,
nationalism and politics, this handbook blends rigorous
theoretically grounded analysis with empirically rich illustrations
to provide a state-of-the-art overview of the contemporary debates
on one of the most pervasive international security challenges
today. Fully updated for the second edition, the book includes a
new section which offers detailed analyses of contemporary cases of
conflict such as in Ukraine, Kosovo, the African Great Lakes region
and in the Kurdish areas across the Middle East, thus providing
accessible examples that bridge the gap between theory and
practice. The contributors offer a 360-degree perspective on ethnic
conflict: from the theoretical foundations of nationalism and
ethnicity to the causes and consequences of ethnic conflict, and to
the various strategies adopted in response to it. Without
privileging any specific explanation of why ethnic conflict happens
at a particular place and time or why attempts at preventing or
settling it might fail or succeed, The Routledge Handbook of Ethnic
Conflict enables readers to gain a better insight into such
defining moments in post-Cold War international history as the
disintegration of the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia, and their
respective consequences, the genocide in Rwanda, and the relative
success of conflict settlement efforts in Northern Ireland. By
contributing to understanding the varied and multiple causes of
ethnic conflicts and to learning from the successes and failures of
their prevention and settlement, the Handbook makes a powerful case
that ethnic conflicts are neither unavoidable nor unresolvable, but
rather that they require careful analysis and thoughtful and
measured responses.
