About this book

Barbara F. Walter is a political scientist who studies civil wars, and in How Civil Wars Start she explains how they begin and how they can be stopped. She draws on cases from many countries to describe the warning signs, including countries that sit between democracy and autocracy and societies split along factional lines. She applies this research to the United States and sets out what she thinks can lower the risk. The book was published in 2022.

About the author

Barbara F. Walter

Walter is a political scientist who spent years on a task force set up for the American intelligence community to predict which countries would collapse into civil war, and the model it built turned out to rest on two things: a state in the unstable middle between autocracy and democracy, and parties organised around identity rather than policy.
