Abstract

The major purpose of the essay is to analyse trends in the Cold War and post-Cold War armed conflicts. It is important to bear in mind the necessity of definitions of armed conflicts and wars, etc., since it might be understood in different ways. The author emphasised the typology of armed conflicts in the Cold and post-Cold War era as well as statistical data so as to illustrate the frequency of armed conflicts in both periods. The article presents a comparative study of both periods so as to draw a conclusion regarding the problem in the period of 1945–1989 and post-1989 periods. However, the new types of conflicts as well as the new approach towards them as a new phenomenonhas only been touched.
