Summary

In this book, David Sobek argues that there is no single explanation for war: factors leading to war in one case may well lead to peace in another. Understanding the onset of war, he contends, requires a movement away from single theories towards one that embraces the multi-faceted causes of war.

The Causes of War Reviews

"Provides good summaries of a wide range of debates in conflict theory alongside a diverse array of historical material and case studies. The book commends itself to the attention of researchers, advanced undergraduates and postgraduates in the field of international relations theory, security studies and peace and conflict studies." Acta Politica "A fine overview of the major factors influencing decisions for interstate war -- power, democratic peace, and trade -- across different levels of analysis. The inclusion of frequent case applications and a discussion of civil war are bonuses." Paul F. Diehl, University of Illinois
