Content:
It is commonly said that democracies very seldom fight each other. Huth and Allee re-evaluate this claim by testing three theoretical models using 348 territorial disputes from 1919-95. The results support the importance of democratic accountability and norms in shaping the diplomatic and military policies of democratic leaders
