Theories of conflict and war

Author

Listed:
  • Kimbrough, Erik O.
  • Sheremeta, Roman M.

Abstract

The special issue aims to bring together different perspectives on conflict and war from different disciplines, including economics, psychology, evolutionary biology, anthropology, political science, and management. By collecting these distinct, but overlapping perspectives in a single issue, we hope to encourage interdisciplinary work on conflict and war.
