The Meaning of Projectile Points in the Late Neolithic of the Northern Levant: A Case Study from the Settlement of Shir, Syria (Dietrich) -- Chapter 3. Was There a Method to Their Madness? Warfare, Alliance Formation, and the Origins of the Irish Medieval State (Gibson) -- Chapter 4. Seeking Justice—Preserving Honor: War and Peace Among the Western Dani (Hayward) -- Chapter 5. Forced Labor and Disciplinary Control: A History of Indigenous Peoples’ Treatment and Agency in the City of Manaus, Brazil (Soares) -- Chapter 6. Culpability for Violence in the Congo: Lessons from the Crisis of 1960-1965 (Roosevelt) -- Chapter 7.

This book examines human conflict throughout history, the reasons behind the struggles, and why it persists. The volume delves into the causes of human conflict and what can be done about them. Based on detailed descriptions that support insightful interpretations, the book explores significant historical events in the course of human history. By pursuing a “web of violence” approach, it raises and answers questions about the sources of conflict and how it may or may not be resolved through investigations into human agency and practice. It evaluates lessons learned concerning human conflict, violence, and warfare. To illustrate these lessons, the book presents a broad geographical and temporal set of data, including research on the time of Neanderthals in Europe (20-30 thousand years ago); the Late Neolithic civilization on the Mediterranean (6-8 thousand years ago); medieval Ireland; contemporary history of the Western Dani peoples of West Papua; and, finally, recent issues in Brazil, Congo, and Kenya.
