Why is war a global problem?
War subverts democracy and promotes tyranny and fanaticism; kills and sickens and impoverishes people; ravages nature. War is a keystone problem, the eradication of which would make our other social problems much more tractable. Second, war is more readily solvable than many other human afflictions.

Solutions to global issues generally require cooperation among nations.
