Title: Civil wars of the world
Description: "At a time when historians are devoting more and more research to conflicts within nations, Civil Wars of the World: Major Conflicts Since World War II is an invaluable addition to the available resources. In two volumes, it ranges around the globe to cover the most volatile and deadly civil wars of the past 60 years, including the bloody impasses in the Middle East; devastating tribal warfare in Africa; Cold War-fueled conflicts in Eastern Europe and Asia; the seemingly unbreakable cycle of rebellion and repression in some regions of Latin America; and more. Civil Wars of the World moves country by country to describe the causes, course, and consequences of internal conflicts within each nation. Coverage includes the historical background of each country, geographic and economic factors, descriptions of rebel group(s) and government (e.g., regime type, size of military, capacity), terrorism, foreign and/or IGO intervention (UN, foreign support for rebels), foreign aid, and prospects for peace." -- Publisher description.
