Political Violence @ A Glance

Political Violence @ A Glance is an award-winning online magazine directed by Erica Chenoweth, Christian Davenport, Barbara Walter, and Joe Young, that answers questions on the causes and consequences of violence and protest in the world’s conflict zones. Analysis comes from distinguished experts who are doing the most rigorous, most interesting, and most policy relevant research. Our goal is to offer simple, straight-forward analysis. No jargon. No lingo. Just insightful content, and a bit of fun. Political Violence @ A Glance is supported by the UC Institute of Global Conflict & Cooperation, a University of California think tank specializing in research, training, and policy engagement around issues related to international security, economic development, political violence and its antecedents, and peace building.
