About

Political Violence @ A Glance is an award-winning online magazine directed by Erica Chenoweth, Christian Davenport, Barbara F. Walter, Joe Young, and Patrick Pierson, that answers questions on the most pressing problems related to violence and protest in the world’s conflict zones. Supported by the UC Institute on Global Conflict and Cooperation (IGCC), our goal is to use rigorous research, and simple, straight-forward analysis, to improve policies and practices in ways that help reduce conflict and build lasting peace.
