About this book

Challenges the democratic peace and diversionary war theories by emphasizing the importance of social trust, its origin as a by-product of effective governance exercised by strong states, and influence on international conflict.

Reviews

"An original argument, well executed and placed at the center of a whirlwind of debate about the sources of wars. The timing of this book couldn t be any better as all the literature on social trust shows no signs of abating and the combination of these two literatures, social trust and sources of war, should generate interest for a huge audience. The book will appeal to a wide variety of social scientists and is suitable for use in undergraduate classes in political science, international affairs, sociology, history, and even anthropology." - Markus Crepaz, Professor of Political Science, School of Public and International Affairs, The University of Georgia
