Does democracy influence war tendencies

The article addresses the relationship between democracy and wars, clarifying that democracy is not an absolute guarantee of peace. The most important factor is the existence of strong institutions that can restrain the decision to go to war when fear turns into policy. The article explains that democratic regimes, through free elections, may exploit fear to achieve political gains and exaggerate crises, which can lead to military escalation, as seen in the cases of Israel and America. Conversely, models such as China and Russia, which rely on closed systems, allow leaders to make erroneous decisions without direct accountability, increasing the risk of military adventures. In summary, the presence of independent institutions and societal accountability values are crucial because they prevent fear and personal ambitions from turning into destructive policies. They ensure that the decision to go to war is made rationally, rather than out of fear or exaggerated hysteria.
