First published in 1992, this edited collection argues that
conflicts have a growing tendency both to intensify and to
lengthen, thus increasing the likelihood of external actors being
drawn into the on-going violence. Here, leading experts in
comparative and international politics examine this tendency of
communal conflicts to spill over into the international arena. They
also look at the conditions under which these processes do not
occur and are mediated successfully. The authors combine
theoretical perspectives with case studies, covering examples from
the origins of the First World War, to state building in Iraq, and
whether it was a precursor of the Iran-Iraq War and the Gulf
Crisis. They present both a global overview and a focus on the
state as the single most important intermediary in the
internationalization process. A comprehensive and relevant reissue,
this volume will appeal to students and scholars of International
Relations, Comparative Politics and Strategic Studies.
