War and peace are as important as other institutions- science,
politics, family, economy, religion, etc.- but rarely receive the
same level of sociological attention. Systems of War and Peace
covers this gap by presenting a coherent framework for
understanding why and how wars start and end; what military
organizations are, how they function, and where they came from;
plus, how peace has been achieved in the past and how it can be
achieved in the future. The balance of topics is intended to
provide a sufficient basis for understanding the whole spectrum of
violent social conflict and the reasons why some peace efforts have
failed and others have succeeded. The second edition has been
updated to include recent developments and new topics. Since the
first edition in 1994, there have been no international wars, but
there has been a host of rebellions, civil wars, interventions, and
terrorist attacks. At the same time, some conflicts have abated and
peacemaking attempts have been ongoing in many venues. A number of
topics neglected in the first edition, such as sexuality in the
military, have been added.
