This book analyzes the failure of the EU's peace-through-trade policy in Iraq and Iran between 1979 and 2009 from a theoretical and empirical perspective. The author adds to the trade-peace theory debate and provides evidence supporting the need to review the EU's peace-through-trade-policy towards Iraq and Iran, and in general.

Reviews

"This work dispels the myth of liberal trade theory and practice being synonymous with peace. Quite the opposite - they are synonymous with war. Scholars and policy-makers from all walks of life would benefit enormously by reading Amir M. Kamel's fine account." -Professor Vassilis K. Fouskas, School of Business & Law, University of East London, UK
