Nation states and minorities resort more and more to violence when safeguarding their political interests. Although the violence in the Middle East has been dominating world politics for some time now, European governments have had their share of ethnic violence to contend with as this volume demonstrates. And as the case studies show, ranging as they do from the Basque Country to Chechnya, from Northern Ireland to Bosnia-Herzegovina, this applies to western Europe as much as to eastern Europe. However, in contrast to other parts of the world, instances where political struggles for power and social inclusion between minorities and majorities lead to inter-ethnic warfare are uncommon; in the majority of cases conflicts are successfully de-escalated and even resolved. In their comprehensive conclusion, the editors offer a theoretical framework for the development of strategies to deal with violent ethnic conflict.
