Democratic Peace and Territorial Conflict in the Twentieth Century

Informationen zum Autor Paul K. Huth is Professor at the Department of Political Science and Senior Research Scientist at the University of Michigan. Klappentext An original challenge to the foundations of the democratic peace literature. Zusammenfassung It is commonly said that democracies very seldom fight each other. Huth and Allee re-evaluate this claim by testing three theoretical models using 348 territorial disputes from 1919–95. The results support the importance of democratic accountability and norms in shaping the diplomatic and military policies of democratic leaders. Inhaltsverzeichnis 1.
