About the book
Joshua S. Goldstein, a scholar of international relations, argues that armed conflict is in decline worldwide: fewer wars break out, more of them end, and the ones still fought are smaller and more local. He credits humanitarian aid agencies, popular movements and above all the United Nations, working over decades, and holds that peacekeeping works.
