Kompletný popis

Studying the relationship between democracy and war, this book looks at the interaction of two elemental phenomena: elections as an essential institution of democratic states, and war as a defining element of international politics. The author argues that the international relations of democratic states are best understood in the context of the interaction of democratic and international politics. Democratic leaders may have an electoral incentive to seek out international conflict, but they also have a strong motivation to prevent escalation to war when elections are imminent. The author supports his argument with both structured case studies and analysis of the aggregate experience of all the democratic states over the past two centuries. He shows that despite variation in public attitudes toward international conflict, democratic states have engaged in significantly fewer wars in the period leading up to elections than in other parts of their electoral cycles.
