Abstract

In this paper we wish to make generally available a comprehensive survey of the peace economics literature up to 1992, printed at that time in a very high-priced book unaffordable by most scholars and university and college libraries. This survey constitutes Part II of this paper. To this survey we wish to add contributions on certain topics of continuing major concern, and cover somewhat extensively new literature on intra-national conflict, a subject which recently has become of critical, world-wide importance. These additions are in Part I of this paper.
