While much of the work in this field focuses on individual
psychology or radical ideology, Bosi, O Dochartaigh, Pisoiu and
others take a fresh, innovative look at the importance of context
in generating mobilisation and shaping patterns of violence. The
cases dealt with range widely across space and time, from Asia,
Africa and Europe to the Americas, and from the Irish rebellion of
1916 through the Marxist insurgency of Sendero Luminoso to the
`Invisible Commando' of Cote d'Ivoire. They encompass a wide range
of types of violence, from separatist guerrillas through Marxist
insurgents and Islamist militants to nationalist insurrectionists
and the distinctive forms of urban violence that have emerged at
the boundary between crime and politics. Chapters offer new
theoretical perspectives on the decisive importance of the spatial
and temporal contexts, and supportive milieux, in which parties to
conflict are embedded, and from which they draw strength.
