Description

The analysis results will frustrate and enlighten both those who hold the "liberal illusion," and their critics. The author identitifies four positions regarding trade and interstate conflict: trade reduces conflict (identified as the liberal view); asymmetric or dependent trade promotes conflict (the dependency view): the realist view that trade increases conflict: and finally the possibility that trade and conflict are unrelated. The reported results are fascinating.

First Sentence

Throughout history policymakers, theorists, and the general public have debated the virtues and vices of foreign trade.
