Ethnicity is one of the most salient and
enduring topics of social science, not least with regard to its potential link
to political conflict/violence. Despite, or perhaps because of, the concept’s
significant use, all too seldom has the field paused to consider the state of
our knowledge. For example, how do we define and conceive of ethnicity within the
context of political conflict? What do we really know about the causal
determinants of ethnic conflict? What has been the most useful development
within this literature, and why?
This volume comprises reflections from
an international range of prominent political scientists all engaged in the
study of ethnicity and conflict/violence. They attempt to synthesize what the
field does and does not know with regard to ethnic conflict, as well as draw
out the research directions for the immediate future in unique and interesting
ways.
