Terrorism, Civil War, and Revolution: Revolution and International Politics, 3rd Edition

Dr. Peter Calvert (University of Southampton, UK)

This text explores the nature and possibility of revolution and civil strife in the context of international politics. Terrorism, Civil War, and Revolution analyzes the role of revolution and civil strife in the present day world. Expanding on the 2nd edition of Calvert’s Revolution and International Politics , this new work reflects the drastic changes that have taken place in the world order since 2001. With an increased focus on terrorism and civil war, the book looks into such key issues as the use of force by the state in the international system, challenges to states, wars of national liberation, counterinsurgency, and more. Written in a clear and accessible manner by a respected expert in the field, the book features the most recent examples of events, such as the insurgency in Sri Lanka, the rise of Al-Qaeda, and the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. This approach will help situate revolutions in the larger context of political violence and will appeal to anyone interested in comparative politics, international relations, and revolutions.
