This book develops a theoretical and empirical argument about the disintegration of security communities, and the subsequent breakdown of stable peace among nations, through a process of norm degeneration. It draws together two key bodies of contemporary IR literature - norms and security communities - and brings their combined insights to bear on the empirical phenomenon of disintegration.
