Riassunto

The editors and authors use a diverse selection of cases that explore the extent to which leaders and people in democracies able to participate in the Iraq War coalition did so by choice. The chapters are based on the premise that democracies are more responsive to public opinion and that the wealthier democracies would be more capable, though not necessarily more willing, to involve themselves in the Iraq War.

The editors have assembled contributions that build on the successful model of International Public Opinion and the Bosnia Crisis. In this volume on Iraq, leading scholars debate the role of public opinion in particular nations' decisions on whether to participate in a central international conflict. This makes Public Opinion & International Intervention an essential text for foreign and public policy explorations and courses.

Richard Sobel has taught and researched at Princeton, Smith., Harvard, Northwestern University, and the University of Connecticut.

Peter Furia is a lecturer in politics at the University of Virginia. He has published several articles on public opinion and international affairs.

Bethany Barratt is an associate professor of political science at Roosevelt University and director of the Joseph Loundy Human Rights Project.
