Uniting States: Voluntary Union in World Politics
Parent, Joseph (Assistant Professor of Political Science, Assistant Professor of Political Science, University of Miami)
What causes states to politically unify voluntarily? This book develops a realist explanation of voluntary union and argues that unions are the balancing coalitions of last resort. Five cases test the logic of the argument: the United States, Switzerland, Sweden-Norway, Gran Colombia, and Europe.
