Description

Why do nations go to war? This book explores the fundamental question of conflict by looking at the psychological roots of revisionism. It argues that the desire for glory, honor, and power drives states to seek new territory. While human nature is the primary driver of these conflicts, the type of political regime in power plays a major role in whether these passions are controlled or unleashed. Through the lens of classical realism, this work examines how different government structures influence foreign policy. You will learn how six specific types of regimes - including monarchy, republic, sultanistic, charismatic, military, and totalitarian dictatorship - affect global stability. The text identifies how certain dictatorships encourage human ambition, making them the most likely governments to start ill-considered wars. This is an essential read for students and professionals interested in political economy and the drivers of international conflict.
