We are living though a new age of war. As conflicts escalate in Europe and the Middle East, the world faces the greatest threat to global peace for a generation. How will we meet the challenge?

In How Wars End, conflict analyst and former UN weapons inspector Jan Van Aken draws on the history of conflict resolution to present practical, evidence-based strategies for peace. He asks: what can we learn from previous wars, what tools enable hostile actors to talk to each other, and which conditions make peaceful solutions possible?
Van Aken skillfully interweaves the latest findings from peace research with stories and examples from Northern Ireland to Serbia, South Sudan to Afghanistan, Vietnam to Syria. Ultimately, he reveals the steps necessary for violence to cease, and peace to be restored, from Ukraine to Israel-Palestine.

Jan van Aken, who holds a PhD in biology, worked as a genetic engineering expert for Greenpeace and as a biological weapons inspector for the United Nations from 2004 to 2006. Between 2009 and 2017, he was a member of the parliamentary group of the Left Party in the Bundestag. He is now Policy Advisor for International Conflict Analysis at the Rosa Luxemburg Foundation, based in its Tel Aviv office.
