Joshua Goldstein, Ph.D.: Winning the War on War - The Decline of Armed Conflict Worldwide

Winning the War on War: The Decline of Armed Conflict Worldwide


Joshua Goldstein, Ph.D., Author; Professor Emeritus of International Relations, American University


Despite the headlines, armed conflict is decreasing and peace is succeeding, Goldstein maintains. Fewer wars are starting, more are ending, and those that remain are smaller and more localized than in past years. Goldstein says that focusing on the strategies that have worked in reducing conflict in the recent past can help us know which ones to employ and support in the future.
