520    The study of armed forces and conflict resolution has 
       undergone important developments at the turn of the 
       millennium, driven by emerging events. The fall of the 
       Berlin Wall, the end of the Cold War, the resurgence of 
       nationalism and religious wars, ethnic cleansing, 
       September Eleven, the War on Terror, and asymmetric 
       warfare, the United Nations' inability to manage and 
       successfully conclude military operations, are so many 
       flash points of how much things have changed since the 
       Cold War. The action of militaries has become more 
       important, more difficult, more controversial, and, at the
       same time, insufficient, without parallel methods and 
       political actions for resolving conflicts. As scholars 
       conceptions of conflicts have changed, so have their 
       understanding of conflict resolution and peace. This 
       latter scholarship now spans analyses of the role of 
       governments, civil institutions, and organized groups. The
       studies of building and sustaining peace now span 
       institutional, inter-actional, and interpersonal levels in
       order to conceptualize a more holistic, long-term vision 
       of peace. This book brings together contributions from 
       scholars of various social science disciplines on three 
       themes that appeared significant for the study of the 
       phenomenon of conflict and conflict resolution. The first 
       theme is centered on the new aspects of war in the twenty-
       first century where asymmetric warfare has changed many 
       rules of the game, imposing a profound transformation on 
       the military, not only tactical, but also structural, 
       preparatory, mental and ideological. The second theme 
       regards the delicate relations between the armed forces 
       and societies. The ever-greater technicality of military 
       operations and their lower comprehensibility to the broad 
       public as a result, together with increased sensitivity in
       many countries in regard to the use of violence and death,
       have created social situations and problems that deserve 
       to be investigated. The third theme, building and 
       sustaining peace, operationalizes different types and 
       levels of violence and conflict. It assesses ongoing 
       efforts, for instance, governments trying to contain or 
       diffuse conflict, businesses and national service schemes 
       building peaceful civil spheres, and the efforts of 
       organized groups to claim, shape, and extend the spheres 
       of life that are free of conflict.
