| Synopsis: |
Children are often the victims of world conflict. Not only do wars affect children living in war-torn areas but children around the world see the horrific results of war on the news. This updated edition of this volume examines how armed conflicts happen and the effect that they have on a country's people. It uses case studies, eye-witness accounts, photographs and background information to help children to understand the scenes of devastation they see on television and to encourage them to think about war from a new perspective. Case studieshave been taken from all around the world and look at a range of situations. For example: the outbreak of civil war in Rwanda in 1994; the fleeing of a million Kurds in Iraq in 1991; the Russian war against Chechnya that started in 1994; and, of course, the ongoing "war against terrorism". |
