This book addresses the issue of whether nation-states can form regional islands of peace in a turbulent international system. It carefully describes the problems and prospects in forming common markets and security communities among neighboring states. After surveying various theories of peace through regionalism, it sets forth a model of regional economic integration against which real cases from Europe, Latin America, and Africa are judged. Originally published by Little, Brown and Company in 1971. This edition contains a new preface by the author.
