  1. "Political communities with professional soldiers whose special function it is to wage war will be less likely to develop institutionalized peacemaking procedures" (160)Tefft, Stanton K. - Warfare regulation: a cross-cultural test of hypotheses among tribal peoples, 1974 - 2 Variables

    This paper tests "theories which suggest that there are causal-functional relationships between the dependent variables peacemaking and peace stability on the one hand and certain independent variables, such as political complexity, warrior class, warfare objectives, cultural homology and intersocietal ties, on the other hand." Significant relationships were found between the last three independent variables.

  4. "The more frequently political communities or political alliances fight for politico-economic objectives (subjugation, tribute, land, plunder), the less likely they will negotiate peace (use mediation, arbitration, direct negotiation)" (157)Tefft, Stanton K. - Warfare regulation: a cross-cultural test of hypotheses among tribal peoples, 1974 - 2 Variables

  7. "As the level of political complexity increases, the more stable the peace which terminates the war" (159)Tefft, Stanton K. - Warfare regulation: a cross-cultural test of hypotheses among tribal peoples, 1974 - 2 Variables

  8. "Political communities which terminate war by diplomatic negotiations are likely to initiate war by announcement or mutual arrangement" (39)Otterbein, Keith F. - The evolution of war: a cross-cultural study, 1970 - 2 Variables

    This book investigates the evolution of military organizations and their activities. Hypotheses frequently relate military organizations to political variables. Data suggested that more politically centralized societies have more sophisticated military organizations which are more likely to be successful in conflict (though military sophistication does not appear to deter attack).

  9. "Large societies are more likely to have professional military organizations than are small societies" (275).Carter, Jr., Harold - Military organization as a response to residence and size of population: a c..., 1977 - 2 Variables

    This study tests an adaptational theory of military organization. Test of the relationship between population, residence type and military organization are presented; findings support the hypotheses.

  10. War-related cultural variables will be more strongly developed within war systems than within peace systems.Fry, Douglas P. - Societies within peace systems avoid war and build positive intergroup relat..., 2021 - 6 Variables

    In this article, the authors explore cultural variables that they propose contribute to the maintenance of peace in non-warring societies. These variables are compared in 16 peaceful systems (as coded by the authors from anthropological and historical data) and in 30 warring societies taken from the Standard Cross-Cultural Sample (SCCS). Findings associate more peaceful cultures with peace systems, and non-peaceful cultures with warring societies.
