The Psychology of Resolving Global Conflicts: Nature vs. nurtureMari Fitzduff, Chris E. Stout These volumes present issues of war, conflict resolution, and stable peace. They explain how men and women are transformed into perpetrators of genocide, how neighbors become sworn enemies, the cultural and psychological origins of war, and even the neuropsychology of conflict. An exploration of what a successful war means for stakeholders holds profound implications for what a victory in the war against terrorism would look like. |
