"At a time when historians are devoting more and more research to conflicts within nations, Civil Wars of the World: Major Conflicts Since World War II is an invaluable addition to the available resources. In two volumes, it ranges around the globe to cover the most volatile and deadly civil wars of the past 60 years, including the bloody impasses in the Middle East; devastating tribal warfare in Africa; Cold War-fueled conflicts in Eastern Europe and Asia; the seemingly unbreakable cycle of rebellion and repression in some regions of Latin America; and more. Civil Wars of the World moves country by country to describe the causes, course, and consequences of internal conflicts within each nation. Coverage includes the historical background of each country, geographic and economic factors, descriptions of rebel group(s) and government (e.g., regime type, size of military, capacity), terrorism, foreign and/or IGO intervention (UN, foreign support for rebels), foreign aid, and prospects for peace." -- Publisher description.

In the course of history, so many wars have happened, Some wars last for hundreds of years, some wars only take place in a short time; There are wars that spread all over the world, there are wars that only break out in a local area. No matter the size of the wars big or small, long or short, all have the same conclusion: War is cruel. The casualty statistics that are counted in the tens of thousands or more are not just numbers but lives themselves. In this book, the most important point that we need to understand and study is how to maintain and protect peace. Cruel wars always have winners and losers, There is an opinion that, in wars, the most decisive factor is the military superiority of the two sides. For example, Xiang Yu and Liu Bang raised an army against the Qin dynasty, but Liu Bang knew that he knew me, he was clever and cunning, so he defeated Xiang Yu; China's revolutionary war was also won thanks to Mao Zedong's great cunning and strategy. It is thanks to these elite leaders that the outstanding victory in history has been achieved. There is another opinion that, during the war, s equipping new weapons is the most important thing. In the old days, when fighting, they often used rudimentary weapons such as knives, swords, spears...; after the invention of gunpowder, the effect and lethality of the weapon had a remarkable quality; During World War II, aircraft, radar, tanks, and atomic bombs were used to the maximum. Along with the leaping development of modern science and technology, ships, aircraft, and artificial satellites have been widely applied in the military field, the winners and losers in wars are also determined by high science and technology.

The world at the beginning of the 20th century seemed for most of its inhabitants stable and relatively benign. Globalizing, booming economies married to technological breakthroughs seemed to promise a better world for most people. Instead, the 20th century proved to be overwhelmingly the most violent, frightening and brutalized in history with fanatical, often genocidal warfare engulfing most societies between the outbreak of the First World War and the end of the Cold War. What went wrong? How did we do this to ourselves? The War of the World comes up with compelling, fascinating answers. It is Niall Ferguson's masterpiece.

Along with its painful economic costs, the financial crisis of 2008 raised concerns over the future of international policy making. As in recessions past, new policy initiatives emerged, approaches that placed greater importance on protecting national interests than promoting international economic cooperation. Whether in fiscal or monetary policies, the control of currencies and capital flows, the regulation of finance, or the implementation of protectionist policies and barriers to trade, there has been an almost worldwide trend toward the prioritizing of national economic security. But what are the underlying economic causes of this trend, and what can economic research reveal about the possible consequences? Prompted by these questions, Robert C. Feenstra and Alan M. Taylor have brought together top researchers with policy makers and practitioners whose contributions consider the ways in which the global economic order might address the challenges of globalization that have arisen over the last two decades and that have been intensified by the recent crisis. Chapters in this volume consider the critical linkages between issues, including exchange rates, global imbalances, and financial regulation, and plumb the political and economic outcomes of past policies for what they might tell us about the future of the global economic cooperation.

A wonderfully engaging, accessible introduction to war, from ancient times to the present and into the future Throughout history, warfare has transformed social, political, cultural, and religious aspects of our lives. We tell tales of wars—past, present, and future—to create and reinforce a common purpose. In this engaging overview, Jeremy Black examines war as a global phenomenon, looking at the First and Second World Wars as well as those ranging from Han China and Assyria, Imperial Rome, and Napoleonic France to Vietnam and Afghanistan. Black explores too the significance of warfare more broadly and the ways in which cultural understandings of conflict have lasting consequences in societies across the world. Weaponry, Black argues, has had a fundamental impact on modes of war: it created war in the air and transformed it at sea. Today, as twentieth-century weapons are challenged by drones and robotics, Black examines what the future of warfare looks like.
