Christopher Blattman, Professor of Global Conflict Studies at the University of Chicago and author Why We Fight: The Roots of War and the Paths to Peace, joins The Realignment to discuss the reasons why conflict escalates into full-blown violence and warfare and the implications of the fact that "peace" not war is the historical norm for humanity.
