Title: The waning of major war
Description: "A systematic effort by leading international scholars to map the trends in major-power warfare and to explore whether it is waxing or waning ... While there is some convergence in the conclusions reached by individual authors in this volume, they are by no means unanimous about the trend. The essays presented here explore different causes and correlates of the declining trend in major-power warfare, including the impact of the international structure, nuclear weapons, international law, multilateral institutions, sovereignty and value changes."--Page 4 of cover.
