The Invisible Hand of Peace: Capitalism, the War Machine, and International Relations Theory
McDonald, Patrick J. (University of Texas, Austin)
This book shows that the domestic institutions associated with capitalism, namely private property and competitive market structures, have promoted peace between states over the past two centuries. It employs a wide range of historical and statistical evidence to illustrate both the broad applicability of these claims and their capacity to explain critical historical events.
