Purchase options and add-ons

Mary Kaldor's New and Old Wars has fundamentally changed the way we understand contemporary war and conflict. In the context of globalization, this path-breaking book has shown that what we think of as war―that is to say, war between states in which the aim is to inflict maximum violence―is becoming an anachronism. In its place is a new type of organized violence which could be described as a mixture of war, organized crime and massive violations of human rights. The actors are both global and local, public and private. The wars are fought for particularistic political goals using tactics of terror and destabilization that are theoretically outlawed by the rules of modern warfare.

Kaldor's analysis offers a basis for a cosmopolitan political response to these wars, in which the monopoly of legitimate organized violence is reconstructed on a transnational basis and international peacekeeping is reconceptualized as cosmopolitan law enforcement.

    2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing Book; Sloppy and lazy attempt at 4GW
    Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2011
    Verified Purchase
    I read this book as part of a graduate seminar in International Security. If you have any familiarity with the huge literature on 4th Generation Warfare or any of the excellent books on Insurgency/COIN then you will be greatly disappointed with Kandor's book for its sloppy thinking and shallow understanding of history. There are both conceptual and empirical problems with this work. Conceptually, she never gets around to defining basic terms. What particular elements distinguish new wars from old wars? Do old wars still take place in 2010? Kandor, an IR scholar in academia makes her argument based on her limited in country experience in the Balkans. For her this is the new war. Empirically there are lots of problems that stem from Kandor's ignorance of basic military technology. Small arms have changed significantly she claims (in weight, usability, and accuracy )since WWII and thus this explains why there are more child soldiers on battlefields. Actually, assault rifle design has changed little since WWII and the most prevalent rifles seen in the hands of child soldiers (FAL and AK) are also based on WWII design.

    The only thing that made me happy about having bought this book was that it gave me the possibility to throw it in the garbage once I had read it. Poor analysis, and out of date.
