Democratic Peace: A Political Biography

The Democratic Peace Thesis holds that democracies rarely make war on other democracies. Political theorist Piki Ish-Shalom sketches the origins and early academic development of the thesis. He then focuses on the ways in which various Democratic Peace Theories were used by Bill Clinton and George W. Bush both to shape and to justify US foreign policy.
