Description
Understanding Conflict Resolution by Peter Wallensteen provides a comprehensive introduction to resolving wars within and between states. This updated Sixth Edition explores ways to secure peace in the aftermath of various forms of political violence, including armed force against civilians and genocide. The book draws on the latest research and data from the UCDP, a definitive source for information on conflicts, wars, and peace agreements. It offers pathways to peace agreements in today's increasingly unpredictable global landscape, featuring examples such as the analysis of the origins and dynamics of the Russia-Ukraine war. Suitable for undergraduate and postgraduate students taking courses in Peace and Conflict studies, Negotiations, Mediation, and the UN, this book introduces tools to understand conflict resolution and analyse future challenges to global peace.
