Reviews

'The book's real contribution lies in compiling the hidden functions of war in a comprehensive way and in making them accessible to a broader non-specialist public.' (Sibylle Scheipers, International Affairs) 'By applying the same lens to war in both developed and developing countries, and highlighting how they are often driven by similar political, economic and psychological dynamics, Keen undermines the comfortable distinction between violence in failed states and the modern - or even post-modern - wars of the West.' (Dominik Zaum, Times Higher Education)
