How Enemies Are Made
Towards A Theory of Ethnic And Religious Conflicts

How Enemies Are Made: Towards A Theory of Ethnic And Religious Conflicts", by Günther Schlee, proposes that group identification and conflict are linked to competition for resources, rather than solely to cultural or ethnic differences. The book explores how differing types of identification are preferred in conflict situations, and it suggests that rivalry over resources can be a trigger for conflict, but doesn't fully explain why certain groups take specific sides. Schlee develops a decision theory to analyze these situations and also examines the potential for reducing violent conflict, including a case study of conflict resolution based on his personal experiences.
