Barkawi, Tarak and Mark Laffey, eds. Boulder: Lynne Rienner Publishers, 2001.

The connection between liberalism and peace - and the reason why democratic countries appear not to go to war with each other—has become a dominant theme in international relations research. This book argues that scholars need to move beyond the “democratic peace debate” to ask more searching questions about the relationship of democracy, liberalism, and war.
