Human Conflict Panel 2: Ethnicity or Economics?

Human Conflict Special Issue
Conflicts between states are on the decline, but that downswing in violence is opposed by an upswing in intra-state violence, conflict within nations.

This video is part two of a Google+ Hangout with panelists Mahzarin Banaji of Harvard University, Debraj Ray of New York University, and Richard J. Crisp of the University of Kent.
