  Civil Wars - A Very Short...

  Civil wars are the most common form of large-scale political violence. In the past thirty years, the study of civil wars has been one of the largest growing segments of the international relations field. Their causes are complex, ranging from fights over access to housing, jobs, and land or other resources, to political contests over offices, rights, and representation. Groups form, collapse, coalesce, align and realign, and then fight amongst themselves. Governments themselves change through elections, coups, military defeats, or revolutions. Understanding the origins of civil wars and their trajectories therefore demands some appreciation of the economic, political, social, cultural, and geographic order of societies. If there is one factor that best predicts why a civil war erupts, it is a prior civil war. That is why knowledge of a country's history of political violence, and associated narratives about who is to blame and why, are critical to understanding where a civil war might next occur. We now have a better understanding of the conditions under which civil wars generally emerge, how the fighting evolves, and how civil wars end. However, historical understanding—the human dimensions—remain every bit as critical. This book explores current debates on civil wars and how the reasons for fighting (and the nature of belligerents themselves) are changing.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  For seven years, Lorenzo Sellers debated MAGA supporters across dinner tables, social media threads, workplaces, and public forums. Not to win. To understand. 
  What he discovered is something most people never see. These debates were never about facts. They were about emotion, identity, belonging, and power. Facts don’t build movements. Strategy does. 
  Politics vs Power is a bold and unflinching guide to understanding why movements like MAGA grow so fiercely and why facts alone will never break their grip. Drawing from real conversations, psychological patterns, and cultural fault lines, Lorenzo reveals the emotional engines that power these movements and how to counter them with precision. 
  Inside you’ll learn: 
  *Why facts fall flat against emotional loyalty 
  *How belonging, power proximity, and rebellion keep people loyal 
  *How to recognize when someone is unreachable and when the real audience is watching 
  *Why outrage fuels movements and clarity dismantles them 
  *How to build spaces that meet emotional needs before extremism exploits them 
  This is not a partisan rant. It is a playbook for those tired of shouting into the void. Politics vs Power shows you how to stop reacting, start strategizing, and build influence that lasts long after the noise fades. 
  Whether you’re trying to reach someone who has fallen deep into the MAGA fold, protect your peace in conversations that go nowhere, or understand the real battlefield beneath the headlines, this book gives you the clarity and strategy you need to stand firm in the storm. 
  Politics is performance. Power is strategy. Learn the difference.
