| Zusammenfassung: | In The Wars Within, Robin M. Williams Jr. brings together decades of thought about ethnic conflicts in an effort to better understand their dynamics and to lessen their disastrous consequences. Williams presents a worldwide perspective, conscious that many studies of ethnicity focus primarily on the United States. The stakes of struggles can involve both material resources, such as oil, diamonds, and gold, and sociocultural goods, such as group status and cultural distinctiveness. Ethnic conflict, Williams finds, can be portrayed as a set of dynamic processes that may escalate from restrained confrontations over limited issues to devastating ethnic warfare and genocide.Throughout, Williams attends to present-day realities and continually reminds readers that ethnic conflict has human significance and lasting effects. His analysis implies that the military and political behavior of the United States profoundly affects whether faraway places attempt ethnic cooperation or shatter into deadly conflict. The Wars Within ends on a note of mild hope as Williams provides an overview of ways to prevent, moderate, or resolve severe intrastate violence |

Williams Ithaca, NY Cornell University Press [2018] © 2003 1 online resource 1 table txt rdacontent c rdamedia cr rdacarrier Description based on online resource; title from PDF title page (publisher's Web site, viewed 23. Nov 2018) In The Wars Within, Robin M. Williams Jr. brings together decades of thought about ethnic conflicts in an effort to better understand their dynamics and to lessen their disastrous consequences. Williams presents a worldwide perspective, conscious that many studies of ethnicity focus primarily on the United States. The stakes of struggles can involve both material resources, such as oil, diamonds, and gold, and sociocultural goods, such as group status and cultural distinctiveness. Ethnic conflict, Williams finds, can be portrayed as a set of dynamic processes that may escalate from restrained confrontations over limited issues to devastating ethnic warfare and genocide.Throughout, Williams attends to present-day realities and continually reminds readers that ethnic conflict has human significance and lasting effects. His analysis implies that the military and political behavior of the United States profoundly affects whether faraway places attempt ethnic cooperation or shatter into deadly conflict. The Wars Within ends on a note of mild hope as Williams provides an overview of ways to prevent, moderate, or resolve severe intrastate violence In English Civil war Ethnic conflict Genocide Political violence Politik (DE-588)4046514-7 gnd rswk-swf Völkermord (DE-588)4063690-2 gnd rswk-swf Minderheitenfrage (DE-588)4169999-3 gnd rswk-swf Politischer Konflikt (DE-588)4115589-0 gnd rswk-swf Politische Auseinandersetzung (DE-588)4215794-8 gnd rswk-swf Gewalt (DE-588)4020832-1 gnd rswk-swf Ethnizität (DE-588)4220764-2 gnd rswk-swf Ethnizität (DE-588)4220764-2 s Gewalt (DE-588)4020832-1 s Politische Auseinandersetzung (DE-588)4215794-8 s 1\p DE-604 Minderheitenfrage (DE-588)4169999-3 s Politischer Konflikt (DE-588)4115589-0 s 2\p DE-604 Politik (DE-588)4046514-7 s 3\p DE-604 Völkermord (DE-588)4063690-2 s 4\p DE-604 https://www.degruyter.com/doi/book/10.7591/9781501711619 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 4\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
