Civil conflicts break out in mostly poor, developing countries with large populations of young people, and combatants are less hesitant to turn civilian areas into battlegrounds. \u003ci\u003eWar and Children\u003c\/i\u003e explores these phenomena by focusing primarily on recent conflicts worldwide, with case studies dramatizing important issues and controversies--including the considerable number of children soldiers throughout the world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kendra E.
