Capitalism, Democracy and the Prevention of War and Poverty (Routledge Advances in International Relations and Global Politics) - Hardcover
Book 58 of 168: Routledge Advances in International Relations and Global Politics
Synopsis
For a very large part of the world’s population, poverty and war are still part of everyday life. Drawing on insights from several disciplines, this book attempts to find scientific answers to explain the relationship between conflict and poverty.
This interdisciplinary volume brings together a range of arguments that synthesize both democratic and capitalist peace theory. Supported by a large body of research, contributors contend that nations with institutions that maximize individual political and civil rights minimize the probability of fighting each other. The volume includes:
- contributors from leading and award winning scholars in the field, including Bruce Russett and Erik Gartzke
- topics such as democratization and economic development, situated within the broader contexts of globalization and modernization
- contributions supported by empirical analyses, systematizing democratic and capitalist peace theories
This book will be vital reading for students and scholars of International Relations and globalization, and also for a broader range of subjects including sociology, political science and economics.

Hardback. Condition: New. 219 pages. Edited by Peter Graeff and Guido Mehlkop, this collection of essays examines how democratic and market institutions relate to the reduction of war and poverty, setting democratic peace theory alongside capitalist peace theory. After an introduction by the editors, the early chapters take up the democratic peace: one traces the idea back to Thucydides and ancient Greece, and another asks what the democratic peace is and why it is worth pursuing. A further chapter considers how production, prosperity and preferences bear on peace. Later chapters are empirical, among them a correspondence analysis of the links between economic freedom, wealth and corruption. The volume ends with a concluding chapter by the editors.
