T<br />
he world is at war. From Syria to Iraq, India to Pakistan, the<br />
world is now at a stage where conflict has become the new<br />
normal. From the beginning <strong>of</strong> time, conflict has given<br />
society the most pr<strong>of</strong>ound and celebrated art. Thus, it is only apt<br />
that this issue be dedicated to the arts <strong>of</strong> war.<br />
Art is as responsible for starting war as it is for sustaining it and<br />
ending it. It has the ability to significantly alter public perceptions<br />
<strong>of</strong> war, and to sustain mass movements for and against aggression<br />
and violence.<br />
