Economic Interdependence and War
Author: Dale C. Copeland
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 0691161593
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 504
Book Description
Does growing economic interdependence among great powers increase or decrease the chance of conflict and war? Liberals argue that the benefits of trade give states an incentive to stay peaceful. Realists contend that trade compels states to struggle for vital raw materials and markets. Moving beyond the stale liberal-realist debate, Economic Interdependence and War lays out a dynamic theory of expectations that shows under what specific conditions interstate commerce will reduce or heighten the risk of conflict between nations. Taking a broad look at cases spanning two centuries, from the Napoleonic and Crimean wars to the more recent Cold War crises, Dale Copeland demonstrates that when leaders have positive expectations of the future trade environment, they want to remain at peace in order to secure the economic benefits that enhance long-term power. When, however, these expectations turn negative, leaders are likely to fear a loss of access to raw materials and markets, giving them more incentive to initiate crises to protect their commercial interests. The theory of trade expectations holds important implications for the understanding of Sino-American relations since 1985 and for the direction these relations will likely take over the next two decades. Economic Interdependence and War offers sweeping new insights into historical and contemporary global politics and the actual nature of democratic versus economic peace.

Economic Interdependence and International Conflict
Author: Edward Deering Mansfield
Publisher: University of Michigan Press
ISBN: 0472022938
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 367
Book Description
The claim that open trade promotes peace has sparked heated debate among scholars and policymakers for centuries. Until recently, however, this claim remained untested and largely unexplored. Economic Interdependence and International Conflict clarifies the state of current knowledge about the effects of foreign commerce on political-military relations and identifies the avenues of new research needed to improve our understanding of this relationship. The contributions to this volume offer crucial insights into the political economy of national security, the causes of war, and the politics of global economic relations. Edward D. Mansfield is Hum Rosen Professor of Political Science and Co-Director of the Christopher H. Browne Center for International Politics at the University of Pennsylvania. Brian M. Pollins is Associate Professor of Political Science at Ohio State University and a Research Fellow at the Mershon Center.

Reliability and Alliance Interdependence
Author: Iain D. Henry
Publisher: Cornell University Press
ISBN: 1501763067
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 161
Book Description
In Reliability and Alliance Interdependence, Iain D. Henry argues for a more sophisticated approach to alliance politics and ideas of interdependence. It is often assumed that if the United States failed to defend an ally, then this disloyalty would instantly and irrevocably damage US alliances across the globe. Henry proposes that such damage is by no means inevitable and that predictions of disaster are dangerously simplistic. If other allies fear the risks of military escalation more than the consequences of the United States abandoning an ally, then they will welcome, encourage, and even praise such an instance of disloyalty. It is also often assumed that alliance interdependence only constrains US policy options, but Henry shows how the United States can manipulate interdependence to set an example of what constitutes acceptable allied behavior. Using declassified documents, Henry explores five case studies involving US alliances with South Korea, Japan, the Republic of China, the Philippines, Australia, and New Zealand. Reliability and Alliance Interdependence makes a substantial contribution to our understanding of how America's alliances in Asia function as an interdependent system.

How the Power of Business Affects the Commercial Peace: Commercial Interests, Economic Interdependence, and Militarized Conflict
Author: Anita Renda Kellogg
Publisher:

Languages : en
Pages : 146
Book Description
There is a simple and compelling logic to the thesis that economic interdependence decreases the risk of military conflict between nations. As an unconditional proposition, however, this does not seem to be the case. Countries that are economically integrated do sometimes wage war against each other. Yet, most articulations of the commercial peace theory base the causal mechanism on the economic costs of conflict on the aggregate national welfare. This is particularly problematic if one believes, as most international relations scholars do, that foreign policies are an elite-driven process rather than based on popular opinion. My dissertation addresses the need for a clear and testable causal mechanism by which commercial exchanges have a pacific effect on bilateral relations. In order to do so, it focuses on those who gain the most from interstate economic exchanges. I argue that business must have an influential effect on the formulation of policy for economic interdependence to reduce interstate militarized disputes. Moreover, this condition must exist on both sides of a dyadic relationship in order to build the necessary trust that their shared economic prosperity will be prioritized when conflicts do occur. This argument is encapsulated in a two-level theory of the commercial peace that incorporates domestic politics into the interstate bargaining process. I test this theory through a mixed method approach -- (1) quantitatively examining the interaction of private sector size and bilateral trade on the likelihood of violent militarized disputes, and (2) two qualitative case studies tracing the process by which business exerts influence on security policy-making for the rival dyads of Colombia-Venezuela and China-Japan. The results establish the importance of economic elites in formulating foreign policy in conditioning the success of economic interdependence to reduce militarized conflicts.
