By not adopting a straightforward approach in exploring the risk analysis to stakes of peace in a global world, the author, as a convinced Durkheimian, presents in this book a conceptual and empirical approach to conflict analysis. This essay offers a new look at the construction of a social link as a means to preserve peace. In the absence of that foundation, divergence becomes commonplace. Hence, the game of power stands out as determining factor for conflict that is restricted by its entropy. It is the unpredictable nature of these new conflicts that, henceforth, determines the strengths of weakness and establishes a new perspective.weiterlesen
