This book provides an accessible and up-to-date account of the rich military history of the nineteenth century. It takes a fresh approach, making novel links with conflict and coercion, and moving away from teleological emphases. Naval developments and warfare are included, as are social and cultural dimensions of military activity. Leading military historian Jeremy Black offers the reader a twenty-first century approach to this period, particularly through his focus on the dynamic drive provided by different forms of military goals, or "tasking". This allows echoes with modern warfare to come to the fore and provides a fuller understanding of a period sometimes considered solely as background to the total war of 1914-45. Alongside state-to-state warfare and the move toward "total war", Black's emphasis on different military goals gives due weight to trans-oceanic conflict at the expense of non-Europeans. Irregular, internal and asymmetric war are all considered, ranging from local insurgencies to imperial expeditions, and provide a deliberate shift from Western-centricity. At the very cutting edge of its field, this book is a must read for all students and scholars of military history and its related disciplines

Paths to Peace develops a theory about the domestic obstacles to peace in interstate wars-and the role of domestic leadership changes in overcoming these obstacles-and it tests this theory in historical case studies of the Korean War and statistical analysis of interstate wars since 1862.

Il n’y a pas de guerre, pas de génocide, pas d’abandon de populations entières à leur errance entre des frontières meurtrières qui ne soient possibles sans une « suspension » de la relation à la mort d’autrui, un déni des gestes de secours, des paroles de reconfort, du partage qu’elle appelle. Notre mémoire du siècle dernier et notre appréhension du siècle à venir sont inséparables du souvenir de leur éclipse qui trace les « limites » de la fraternité. Elle fait du monde dans lequel nous vivons un monde divisé, autant que l’est notre attitude devant la mort des autres, le deuil et la mémoire qui en résultent. C’est cette éclipse que, à la lecture de textes de Freud, de Heidegger, de Sartre, de Levinas, de Patocka, Ricœur et Derrida, Vivre avec, la pensée de la mort et la mémoire des guerres entreprend de comprendre et d’interroger, alors même qu’elle elle fait l’objet d’une double responsabilité, éthique et politique.
