Although the risks of interstate conflicts have received in recent years, the last decade has seen an upsurge in violent internal conflicts. Ethnic, political and religious tensions, often markes by separatist rebellion, terrorism or ethnic cleansing, periodically dominate news from Southern Thailand, Southern Philippines, Sri Lanka, and a number of regions in Indonesia and the Pacific. Like terrorism and nuclear proliferation, violent internal conflicts are increasingly being seen as global security issue. In this volume, prominent Asian and Western academics and conflict specialist focus on the often complex histories, causes, and trajectories of violent internal conflicts and evaluate the critical options policy makers have for coping with them. Drawn from universities, research centres and non governmental organisations, the writers offer diverse perspectives on one of the pressing issues of the twenty-first century.
