The Causes of War; Nationalism and Social Darwinism

Mehr zum Buch

Exploring the influences of nationalism and social Darwinism, this book examines their roles in ongoing conflicts within modern societies. It discusses significant historical shifts, including the nuclear revolution and the rise of ethno-national conflicts, alongside the impact of global capitalism and democracy. The author analyzes various perspectives on the future of warfare—ranging from the potential decline of great power conflicts to the rise of low-intensity warfare—and critiques the stagnation in our understanding of international conflict since ancient times.
