Achieving peace & building the institutions that will make it last require much time & effort on the part of adversaries. While making this effort, the likelihood of peace is uncertain, & preparations for conflict are ongoing. Using a model that takes such considerations into account, adversaries divide their resources between "guns," "butter," & investments in conflict management. Even when all adversaries undertake sizable investments in conflict management, peace is uncertain. Results show that larger initial wealth increases the likelihood of peace, whereas the number of adversaries can have widely different effects. A larger number of adversaries in cases of international conflict tends to increase the likelihood of peace but has the opposite effect in cases of domestic conflict. 2 Figures, 14 References.
