Recenzje

While scholars have often assumed that nationalistic sentiments among citizens shape mass foreign policy preferences and ultimately lead to military aggression, Jiyoung Ko interrogates this relationship and suggests that popular nationalism can-and often does-have a restraining effect. This groundbreaking new book identifies the conditions under which popular nationalism may lead to interstate war-namely when political elites believe that a complete victory is likely and when they are politically vulnerable at home.
