World Politics and the Causes of War Since 1914

Résumé du livre

After constructing a theoretical framework of ideas, ideologies, and governmental factors that have been suggested as causing international wars, the author checks these hypotheses against developments that led to the outbreak of major wars since 1914, such as W.W. II, Vietnam, and the Arab-Israeli wars. Focuses on immediate causes of war, for example, nationalism, fascism, totalitarian leaders, and democracy.
