Trends in armed conflicts
The continuous critical analysis of violent conflicts around the world - their causes, dynamics and consequences - constitutes the core task of the programme. The principal output of this research is the chapter on trends in armed conflicts produced for the SIPRI Yearbook, but this work also feeds into the development of particular thematic research projects.
