Why We Fight: The Roots of War and the Paths to Peace

Despite the Russian invasion of Ukraine or the fear of another American civil war, most of the time wars don’t happen, and of the millions of hostile rivalries worldwide, only a fraction erupt into violence. Using archival evidence, political analysis, and reconstructed events, Why We Fight moves between close observation and a wider account of the systems surrounding its subject. By placing Why We Fight within political science and psychology, the book reveals why its central tensions extend well beyond one person, place, or moment.
