Description

This course investigates Civil Wars around the globe and from early modern times to the present. It utilises case studies from the past, including the English, American, Russian, Irish and Spanish Civil Wars. It will also analyse contemporary case studies in Eurasia and Africa. An analysis of Civil Wars provides insights not only into important changes in warfare and technology, but also into the political and military cultures of great powers and failed states.
