Rock seeks to identify the decisive factors that can lead traditionally hostile nations toward amicable relations and contends that power relationships alone do not determine whether nations will be at peace with one another. He examines four interconnected cases of great power relations between 1895 and 1914 involving the United States, Great Britain, Germany, and France to test his hypothesis.
