Duncan P. Mercieca

pp. 175-186

The above two quotes capture the issue that this chapter addresses: the relationship of democracy to peace. With almost a difference of one hundred years and relatively different economic and political situations, Wilson and Sen seem to agree that democratic politics and practices lead to peace.
