"This book examines whether partition is an effective means to resolve ethnic civil wars. It argues that partition is unlikely to end ongoing ethnosectarian civil wars, but it can increase the likelihood of preventing civil war recurrence, as long as the partition separates civilians and militaries. The book presents in-depth case studies of Georgia-Abkhazia and Moldova-Transnistria, in addition to cross-national comparisons of all ethnosectarian civil wars between 1945 and 2004. This analysis demonstrates when partitioning a country can help transform an identity-based civil war into a lasting peace. Highlighting practical and moral challenges of separating ethnosectarian groups, the book contends that complete partitions cannot be easily implemented by the international community, and this limits its applicability. It also demonstrates that ethnosectarian civil wars are driven less by inter-group antagonisms and more by state breakdown, meaning displaced minorities can reintegrate peacefully after partition as long as a minimal level of state-building has been completed. The book ends by examining whether partition would be useful for five contemporary conflicts: Iraq, Ukraine-Donbass, Afghanistan, Sudan-South Sudan, and Serbia-Kosovo. This book will be of much interest to students of civil wars, ethnic conflict, peace and conflict studies, and International Relations"--

Carl Schurz came from Germany to become a leading American editor, a United States senator and Secretary of the Interior. In post-Civil War years he was a liberal spokesman—a role he had played earlier in Germany during the revolution of 1848.

The use of advertising in the Soviet Union has increased steadily the last few years, as traditional Communist dislike for advertising has waned in the face of a need to move some consumer goods in an improved economic climate. Trends in other Communist countries also are surveyed.

No country allows the press total freedom in the publication of information. An examination of self-imposed and governmental censorship in those countries where freedom is highest may be helpful to the press of the United States in meeting the challenge of a situation which is neither "peace" nor "war."
