Forged Through Fire: War, Peace, and the Democratic Bargain
by Rosenbluth, Frances McCall & John Ferejohn
|
| |
| Peace, many would agree, is a goal that democratic nations should strive to achieve. But is democracy, in fact, dependent on war to survive? Tracing the surprising ways in which governments have mobilized armies since antiquity, the authors reveal that our modern form of democracy not only evolved in a brutally competitive environment but also quickly disintegrated when powerful elites no longer needed their citizenry to defend against existential threats. | | |
