Abstract

Stephen M. Walt is als professor Politieke Wetenschappen verbonden aan de universiteit van Chicago. Een eerder werk van hem over het ontstaan van (militaire) bondgenootschappen werd op goede kritieken onthaald. In dit werk probeert hij door te stoten naar de oorzaken van revoluties en gewapende conflicten. Hij maakt daarbij gebruik van analyses van grote revolutionaire momenten in de geschiedenis (de Russische, Franse en Iraanse revoluties) om aan te tonen hoe een subtiel samenspel van macht, perceptie en binnenlandse politiek zijn weerslag kan hebben op de internationale betrekkingen. Walt neemt ook afstand van de gedachte dat liberalisering en kapitalisme een eind maken aan de dreiging van revoluties.

Abstract

How are alliances made? In this book, Stephen M. Walt makes a significant contribution to this topic, surveying theories of the origins of international alliances and identifying the most important causes of security cooperation between states. In addition, he proposes a fundamental change in the present conceptions of alliance systems. Contrary to traditional balance-of-power theories, Walt shows that states form alliances not simply to balance power but in order to balance threats. Walt begins by outlining five general hypotheses about the causes of alliances. Drawing upon diplomatic history and a detailed study of alliance formation in the Middle East between 1955 and 1979, he demonstrates that states are more likely to join together against threats than they are to ally themselves with threatening powers. Walt also examines the impact of ideology on alliance preferences and the role of foreign aid and transnational penetration. His analysis show, however, that these motives for alignment are relatively less important. In his conclusion, he examines the implications of "balance of threat" for U.S. foreign policy.
