Overview Series - Ethnic Violence
Mary Hull
Hardcover
(Lucent Books, June 1, 1997)
In some countries, ethnic distinctions lead to segregation and, often, violence. Power seekers in these nations use religious, linguistic, physical, and social differences to fan the flames of ethnic hatred as they struggle for dominance and self-determination. This title looks at the roots of ethnic violence, its periodic occurences, and the role of the nations that must weigh the consequences of intervening in ethnic warfare.
