Summary:

This book charts the incidence of territorial changes and military conflicts from 1816 to 1980. Using statistical and descriptive analysis, the authors attempt to answer three related sets of questions:* When does military conflict accompany the process of national independence?* When do states fight over territorial changes and when are such transactions completed peacefully?* How do territorial changes affect future military conflict between the states involved in the exchange?
