Country Briefings provide background history on specific world conflicts - past, present and future.
The study of past conflicts should be helpful in identifying lessons learned about what actions provoke and enflame, or which measures can help bring about a peaceful resolution.
The study of current
and past conflicts could be valuable in helping to prevent the outbreak of violence in weak, failed or transitioning states.
Despite the efforts of the international community
and concerned citizens, however, it seems that violence is often a prerequisite before adversaries can agree to the inevitability of compromise that's necessary to restore peace.
