A valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the challenging questions of our times.' -- T.V.

This excellent and well-organized collection belongs on the bookshelf of all serious scholars of peace and security.' -- Jack S. Levy, Rutgers University, USA 'In this timely book, Benjamin Miller, a leading world scholar of regions and peace has compiled his three decades long scholarly articles on war, peace and regional and international order with updates and additional materials.

Levy, Rutgers University, USA 'This collection of first-rate essays by Benjamin Miller should be widely read among students of international politics. He not only offers fascinating insights on the causes of cooperation and conflict among states, but few scholars are as adept as Miller at making causal arguments that synthesize both domestic and international factors in sophisticated and interesting ways.' -- John J. Mearsheimer, University of Chicago, USA 'Benjamin Miller's continuing stress on regional analysis is a great antidote for all of the people promoting universal generalizations and behavior. To this prescription, add Miller's consistent stress on multi-level explanations (from intervening hegemons to ethno-nationalist groups) and theory building to account for variations in war and peace and you come away with a winning combination.' -- William R. Thompson, Indiana University, USA 'Benjamin Miller's pioneering work integrating global and regional causes of war and peace is crucially relevant for understanding current developments from Ukraine to Syria to the South China Sea. This volume presents some of Miller's signature works, bookended new essays that frame his research project and push it toward new frontiers. Readers looking for a rich yet rigorous framework for making sense of a complex and challenging new array of inter and intra-state conflicts should reach for this excellent collection.' -- William C.
