A Road Map to War advances the study of geopolitics significantly and offers a splendid example of cumulative and innovative research from an interdisciplinary perspective. (John OLouglin) An unusually coherent set of essays. A Road Map to War succeeds admirably in its purpose of explaining the role that territory plays in the conceptualization, escalation, recurrence, resolution, and future of militarized conflict. (Harvey Starr) Territorial concerns are more often than not a fundamental component of international conflict. History is replete with examples, from negotiations about disputed borders to overt warfare over areas rich with natural resources. Indeed, the role of territorial issues in conflict between states is largely assumed. However, there has been little scholarship devoted specifically to the crucial role of territoriality in international conflict. A Road Map to War: Territorial Dimensions of International Conflict considers the role of territory in the initiation, evolution, escalation, and resolution of interstate conflict and encompasses much of the cutting-edge research in the area of geography and international conflict. Topics vary from an examination of international law in territorial conflicts to an empirical analysis of the fairness of the Camp David accords, but all the essays address a coherent theme: that conflicts involving a significant territorial component are more dangerous than other disputes, but with the good news that such conflicts can be resolved peacefully. Scholars of international conflict, peace research, and geography will find this book significant for the study and practice of international relations.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
This project was completed with the generous support of many individuals and organizations. The idea for a collection of writings on territorial conflict was first suggested to me by Glenn Palmer. Through his support and that of Stuart Bremer, a special issue on territorial conflict appeared in the journal Conflict Management and Peace Science in 1996. Five of the articles from that special issue are reprinted, some in revised form, in this book. I owe special thanks to the Peace Science Society (International) for granting me permission to reprint those articles. John Vasquez and Gary Goertz were most helpful, in that each of them reviewed several articles in this compilation, and their suggestions resulted in significant improvements. Vanderbilt University Press and its editor Charles Backus nurtured and improved the project, and I benefited from the suggestions of two anonymous reviewers whose ideas helped broaden and deepen the collection. Finally, Phyllis Koerner was instrumental in preparing yet another manuscript of mine, with good humor and efficiency amid rushed deadlines and sometimes mystifying computer formats.
