Reviews
'The Routledge Handbook of Proxy Wars will be the go-to guide for understanding the many facets of proxy wars today and of those in the past. Assaf Moghadam, Vladimir Rauta, and Michel Wyss have brought together a wide range of established and emerging experts who assess the problem from multiple perspectives and offer numerous insights to one of today's most pressing challenges.' Daniel Byman, Georgetown University, Washington DC, USA 'A definitive compendium of essays on proxy warfare from the historical, legal, political and theoretical perspectives, The Routledge Handbook of Proxy Wars will doubtless prove to be the seminal work in a field whose time has come. Together these articles build an indispensable foundation not only for understanding the many-faceted phenomenon of proxy warfare but for anticipating the future challenges it may pose.’ Karen Greenberg, Fordham University, USA 'Fighting the conflicts of others is a phenomenon that has accompanied humanity throughout the ages. This wonderful collection offers readers a comprehensive overview, as well as thought-provoking insights into the past, present and future of proxy wars. With their specific logics, relationships and processes, proxy wars, as the authors rightly argue, deserve to be considered as a mature field of academic investigation. This handbook provides a benchmark, and therefore deserves high praise.' Isabelle Duyvesteyn, Professor of International Studies, Leiden University, The Netherlands ‘.. the Handbook provides a comprehensive toolbox for readers to make an informed judgement about whether the war in Ukraine (or any other conflict) is a proxy war and what that means.’ Giuseppe Spatafora, University of Oxford
