Description

Explore the complex realities of low intensity conflicts in Dragonwars: Armed Struggle and the Conventions of Modern War. For centuries, international order has faced challenges from small wars, insurrections, and revolts. While many believed the fall of the Soviet empire would lead to a world defined by democracy and open societies, the reality remains different. The world continues to face turmoil, including civil war, rebellion, and terror often driven by armed zealots. This book examines why these conflicts persist despite global efforts toward increased productivity and education. J. Bowyer Bell provides a deep look into the nature of these struggles, which can often seem inexplicable or alien to those accustomed to conventional warfare. It is a necessary read for those studying military history and the ways in which modern violence defies traditional containment and retaliation methods. Gain a better understanding of the persistent cycles of violence and the challenges they pose to global stability.
