Understanding the roots and causes of ethnic animosity; analyses of
recent events in Bosnia, Kosovo, Rwanda, Somalia, and the former
Soviet Union. Most recent wars have been complex and bloody
internal conflicts driven to a significant degree by nationalism
and ethnic animosity. Since the end of the Cold War, dozens of
wars-in Bosnia, Kosovo, Rwanda, Somalia, the former Soviet Union,
and elsewhere-have killed or displaced millions of people.
Understanding and controlling these wars has become one of the most
important and frustrating tasks for scholars and political
leaders.This revised and expanded edition of Nationalism and Ethnic
Conflict contains essays from some of the world's leading analysts
of nationalism, ethnic conflict, and internal war. The essays from
the first edition have been updated and supplemented by analyses of
recent conflicts and new research on the resolution of ethnic and
civil wars. The first part of the book addresses the roots of
nationalistic and ethnic wars, focusing in particular on the former
Yugoslavia. The second part assesses options for international
action, including the use of force and the deployment of
peacekeeping troops. The third part examines political challenges
that often complicate attempts to prevent or end internal
conflicts, including refugee flows and the special difficulties of
resolving civil wars.
