This book examines and explains the dialectic of war and peace between the outbreak of WWI and the Russian annexation of Crimea in 2014. The theoretical inspiration is built upon Galtungs concept of negative and positive peace, Arons distinction between strategy and diplomacy, and Carrs theory of periodization. Here, the author compares globalization with the interwar period and examines how the first decades positive peace, diplomacy, and big hopes were replaced by negative peace, and explains the growing role of military strategy which culminated after the Russian annexation of Crimea and the following military incidents between NATO and Russia. This volume will be of t to teachers, students, and researchers in the fields of modern history, international security and peace studies.
