The Steps to War utilizes new data on militarized interstate disputes from 1816 to 2001 to identify the factors that increase the probability that a crisis will escalate to war. In this book, Paul Senese and John Vasquez test one of the major behavioral explanations of war--the steps to war--by identifying the various factors that put two states at risk for war. Focusing on the era of classic international politics from 1816 to 1945, the Cold War, and the post-Cold War period, they look at the roles of territorial disputes, alliances, rivalry, and arms races and show how the likelihood of war increases significantly as these risk factors are combined. Senese and Vasquez argue that war is more likely in the presence of these factors because they increase threat perception and put both sides into a security dilemma. The Steps to War calls into question certain prevailing realist beliefs, like peace through strength, demonstrating how threatening to use force and engaging in power politics is more likely to lead to war than to peace. 606 $aWar$xCauses$xResearch 606 $aConflict management$xResearch 606 $aInternational relations$xResearch 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aWar$xCauses$xResearch. 615 0$aConflict management$xResearch. 615 0$aInternational relations$xResearch. 676 $a355.02/7 700 $aSenese$b Paul Domenic$01038653 701 $aVasquez$b John A.$f1945-$01038654 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910453311203321 996 $aThe steps to war$92460378 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01342nam0 22003371i 450 001 RML0268845 005 20231121125724.0 100 $a20121121d1972 ||||0itac50 ba 101 | $aita 102 $ait 181 1$6z01$ai $bxxxe 182 1$6z01$an 200 1 $aCronaca di Roma 1844-1870 210 $aRoma $cIstituto per la storia del Risorgimento italiano $d1972 215 $aXXXVIII, 443 p. 225 | $aBiblioteca scientifica$fIstituto per la storia del Risorgimento italiano $v64 410 0$1001RML0329044$12001 $aBiblioteca scientifica$fIstituto per la storia del Risorgimento italiano $v64 606 $aRisorgimento italiano$2FIR$3RMLC004923$9E 606 $aStoria della Chiesa$2FIR$3RMLC381596$9I 606 $aStoria di Roma$2FIR$3RMLC406374$9I 676 $a945.632083$9$v21 700 1$aRoncalli$b, Nicola$3RMLV173422$0185029 702 1$aTrebiliani$b, Maria Luisa$3RMLV173414 801 3$aIT$bIT-01$c20121121 850 $aIT-FR0017 899 $aBiblioteca umanistica Giorgio Aprea$bFR0017 912 $aRML0268845 950 0$aBiblioteca umanistica Giorgio Aprea$d 52CIS 3/210.64$e 52VM 0000392305 VM barcode:00017573. - Inventario:9268 BUVM$fA $h20040205$i20121204 977 $a 52 996 $aCronaca di Roma 1844-1870$9168441 997 $aUNICAS
