"Over the past several decades, civil and ethnic wars have undermined prospects for economic and political development, destabilized entire regions of the globe, and left millions dead. States, Scarcity, and Civil Strife in the Developing World argues that demographic and environmental stress - the interactions among rapid population growth, environmental degradation, inequality, and emerging scarcities of vital natural resources - represents one important source of turmoil in today's world."--BOOK JACKET.
