Paul Rogers is Professor Emeritus of Peace Studies at Bradford University, where he worked for over forty years. He has focused on the causes of war, particularly as they relate to global limits to growth, a failing economic system and military cultures often dominated by the need for control. Losing Control, a book he wrote in the late 1990s, is now in its fourth edition (published by Pluto Press).
Paul has lectured at Britain’s senior defence colleges, engaged with government ministries, given evidence to parliamentary committees and is a past chair of the British International Studies Association.
