Political leaders need ministers to help them rule and so
conventional wisdom suggests that leaders appoint competent
ministers to their cabinet. This book shows this is not necessarily
the case. It examines the conditions that facilitate survival in
ministerial office and how they are linked to ministerial
competence, the political survival of heads of government and the
nature of political institutions. Presenting a formal theory of
political survival in the cabinet, it systematically analyses the
tenure in office of more than 7,300 ministers of foreign affairs
covering more than 180 countries spanning the years 1696-2004. In
doing so, it sheds light not only on studies of ministerial change
but also on diplomacy, the occurrence of war, and the democratic
peace in international relations. This text will be of key interest
to students of comparative executive government, comparative
foreign policy, political elites, and more broadly to comparative
politics, political economy, political history and international
relations.
