Violent and Nonviolent Conflict

Research output: Chapter in Book/Entry/Poem › Chapter

Abstract

Social science research on violent and nonviolent conflict seeks to elaborate distinctions in ethical, strategic, and tactical thinking; identify the mechanisms that can bring success in each form of conflict; understand how these conflicts play out in distinct sociopolitical contexts; and elucidate the cultural and political economies of their transnational spread. This entry surveys the knowledge and insights generated in these areas of research. It first offers a general history of the fields of study that have addressed conflict forms and then discusses scholarly efforts to define, comparatively examine, and contrast violent and nonviolent conflicts and their outcomes.
