Gartner and Segura consider the costs of war - both human and
political - by examining the consequences of foreign combat, on
domestic politics. The personal costs of war - the military war
dead and injured - are the most salient measure of war costs
generally and the primary instrument through which war affects
domestic politics. The authors posit a general framework for
understanding war initiation, war policy and war termination in
democratic polities, and the role that citizens and their deaths
through conflict play in those policy choices. Employing a variety
of empirical methods, they examine multiple wars from the last 100
years, conducting analyses of tens of thousands of individuals
across a wide variety of historical and hypothetical conditions,
whilst also addressing policy implications. This study will be of
interest to students and scholars in American foreign policy,
international politics, public opinion, national security, American
politics, communication studies, and military history.
