How Do Civil Wars Happen?
from World Class Hosted by Stanford University, Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies
What causes civil wars and what can we do about it? Michael McFaul introduces a panel of some of FSI’s most distinguished scholars, who tackle this complex topic in a special two-volume issue of Daedalus, the journal of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. Karl Eikenberry, the former US ambassador to Afghanistan, and Stephen Krasner, former State Dept. director of policy planning, are co-editors of this volume; they are joined by FSI senior fellows Francis Fukuyama, Stephen Stedman, Michele Barry, James Fearon, and Paul Wise.
