oxfam books & music totnes civil war has been a recurring feature of human societies throughout history -- and an essential catalyst for major international conflictsee oxfam website for delivery information read moreat its heart is the question of what makes the contemporary challenge posed by civil war so different from that of past periods -- and what, if anything, is new about the contemporary experience of civil war at the dawn of the twenty-first centuryin spite of this, there is no classic treatise on civil war to compare with the classic works we have on war, revolution, or peaceon the one hand, historians have tended to treat the "big" civil wars, such as the american and the spanish, in isolationsince , the number of civil wars in the world has grown steadily, bringing devastation on a scale more traditionally associated with international warsfocusing on the numerous civil conflicts that have occurred throughout the world since the second world war, bill kissane bridges this gap, asking what the recent social science literature adds to what we already know about civil war, but also how insights from the historical literature, from the ancient greeks onwards, can help explain the violent experience of so many parts of the world sincethe book has been read but the text is clean and the binding tightoup hardback book in very good condition with unclipped dustjacket and signed by the authorwhite cloth covered boards with black titles to the spinethere are some minor marks to the coveron the other, social scientists have concentrated on identifying common patterns, without looking in too much detail at the specifics of any given conflict
