Title: The Liberal Illusion
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.
