Despite the current rhetoric of Western leaders, democracies are
great and frequent war-makers and interventionists. This fact
stands in a strange contrast to the liberal self-image of
democracies being particularly peaceful. Addressing this contrast,
the book turns the 'democratic peace' theme on its head: rather
than investigating the reasons for the supposed pacifism of
democracies, it looks for the causes of their militancy. In order
to solve this puzzle, the authors transcend the disciplinary
boundaries of International Relations and draw on political theory,
political philosophy and sociology.
