Our paper argues that particular institutional and psychological dynamics explain this difference.

This study challenges existing expectations about the impact of democratic institutions on foreign policy. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
