Human Security Report 2013: The Decline in Global Violence: Evidence, Explanation, and Contestation - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

In 2011, Harvard’s Stephen Pinker published a major study on long-term trends in global violence. The Better Angels of Our Nature: Why Violence Has Declined has won widespread critical acclaim for its scope, originality and scholarship. But Professor Pinker’s central claim—that, “we may be living in the most peaceful era in our species existence” has become the focus of a wide-ranging and increasingly heated debate. The 2013 Human Security Report’s analysis offers the most comprehensive review to date of this debate—one that is as important as it is contested.
