Praise for the Original Edition “The most important book that has been published on social violence in a good number of years. . . .a superb piece of work.” --Lewis A. Coser in The New York Times Book Review “Likely to last a long time.” --James C. Davies in Orbis “A rare, perhaps unique example of systematic empirical theory in political science...the book stands as an important contribution to social science theory in general and to the theory of violence in particular, as well as the single most complete and comprehensive statement on the topic in the literature.” --Ivo K. Feierabend in the American Political Science Review
