About the book

The essays in this volume address the inter-relationship of power, politics, and violence, examining why the political process of managing power within states sometimes becomes physically violent. It brings together writings on the relationship between states and violence with work on political violence in local settings. The essays address state-backed violence against citizens and subjects, and violence by citizens against the state and between citizens for control of the state.
