Cet ouvrage présente les différentes formes des conflits armés et évalue leur impact et leurs implications politiques et spatiales. Il distingue la guerre inter-étatique, ou guerre « classique » opposant des États par le biais de leurs armées respectives, et les conflits intra-étatiques, ou guerres civiles, désormais la manifestation la plus courante de la violence armée dans le monde. Au-delà de la guerre, l'ouvrage présente aussi la violence politique, notamment les phénomènes liés aux soulèvements, aux révolutions et à la répression. La dimension démographique n'est pas oubliée, car la transformation du peuplement implique différents crimes de masse (massacres, génocides, nettoyages ethniques). Enfin, l'analyse de la dimension économique des guerres, considérées comme facteurs d'appauvrissement ou d'enrichissement, souligne la relation décisive entre économie et guerre. Entre la représentation exagérément optimiste d'une société pacifiée par la mondialisation et la vision pessimiste d'un monde structuré par la violence, il importe de dépasser le simple clivage guerre/paix et de souligner au contraire la variété des formes de violences armées dans les sociétés contemporaines.

As Islamist terrorism has ravaged the contemporary Middle East and led to sporadic attacks in Europe and the United States, countless journalists, pundits, and politicians have turned their attention to the question of what motivates those who commit violence in the name of political beliefs. Terrorism is not solely the preserve of Islam, however, nor is it a new phenomenon. It emerges from social processes and conditions common to societies throughout modern history, and the story of its origins spans centuries, encompassing numerous radical and revolutionary movements. Marc Sageman is a forensic psychiatrist and government counterterrorism consultant whose bestselling books Understanding Terror Networks and Leaderless Jihad provide a detailed, damning corrective to commonplace yet simplistic notions of Islamist terrorism. In his comprehensive new book Turning to Political Violence, he examines the history and theory of political violence. Sageman excavates primary sources surrounding key instances of modern political violence, looking for patterns across a range of case studies spanning the French Revolution, through late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century revolutionaries and anarchists in Russia and the United States, to the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand and the start of World War I. In contrast to one-dimensional portraits of terrorist "monsters" offered by governments and media throughout history, these accounts offer complex and intricate portraits of individuals engaged in struggles with identity, injustice, and revenge who may be empowered by a sense of love and self-sacrifice. Arguing against easy assumptions that attribute terrorism to extremist ideology, and counter to mainstream academic explanations such as rational actor theory, Sageman develops a theoretical model based on the concept of social identity. His analysis keys on the complex dynamic between the state and disaffected citizens that leads some to disillusionment and moral outrage, and a few to mass murder. Sageman's account offers a paradigm-shifting perspective on terrorism that yields stark new implications for the ways liberal democracies can and should confront political violence

Profound exploration of the current wars, looking at violence, gender and different forms of resistance. In Frames of War, Judith Butler explores the media’s portrayal of state violence, a process integral to the way in which the West wages modern war. This portrayal has saturated our understanding of human life, and has led to the exploitation and abandonment of whole peoples, who are cast as existential threats rather than as living populations in need of protection. These people are framed as already lost, to imprisonment, unemployment and starvation, and can easily be dismissed. In the twisted logic that rationalizes their deaths, the loss of such populations is deemed necessary to protect the lives of 'the living.' This disparity, Butler argues, has profound implications for why and when we feel horror, outrage, guilt, loss and righteous indifference, both in the context of war and, increasingly, everyday life. This book discerns the resistance to the frames of war in the context of the images from Abu Ghraib, the poetry from Guantanamo, recent European policy on immigration and Islam, and debates on normativity and non-violence. In this urgent response to ever more dominant methods of coercion, violence and racism, Butler calls for a re-conceptualization of the Left, one that brokers cultural difference and cultivates resistance to the illegitimate and arbitrary effects of state violence and its vicissitudes.
