SOLLER, Diana. Waltz, the democracies’ diversity and the states’ similarities. Relações Internacionais [online]. 2013, n.39, pp.47-57. ISSN 1645-9199.
This article aims to uncover part of Kenneth Waltz forgotten legacy. By asking why the Professor of Columbia University disregarded “democracy” as an important variable to understand relations among states it recovers a book from 1967 - Foreign Policy and Democratic Politics: the American and British Experience - where Waltz argues that there are more similarities than differences between liberal and autocratic states. Re-reading this book also allows bridging the gap between Waltz’s most famous works (Man, the State and War and Theory of International Politics) contributing to the understanding of the academic path of one of the most brilliant scholars of the 20th century.
