HOW CIVIL WARS START

BY BARBARA F. WALTER

“How Civil Wars Start: And How to Stop Them” by New York Times bestselling author Barbara F. Walter.

 In this urgent and insightful book, Walter redefines civil war for a new age, providing the framework we need to confront the danger we now face—and the knowledge to stop it before it’s too late.

“As democracies across the world backslide and citizens become more polarized, civil wars will become even more widespread and last longer than they have in the past. This urgent and important book shows us a path back toward peace.”
