Characterizing elections as an essential institution of democratic states and war as a defining element of international politics, Gaubatz (American foreign policy, Oxford U.) examines the interaction between the two phenomena. He finds that enthusiasm for war is tempered in an electoral environment by the ability of politically legitimate antiwar leaders to increase the domestic costs of going to war, and that democratic leaders have a strong motivation to avoid letting conflicts escalate into war when elections are imminent.
