2.new/interesting
In the category of psychological theory, there arose a question.
i think that it is hasty generalization the rulers such as Napoleon, Hitler, and Stalin start a war because of their Mental anxiety.
and It is interesting that the information in the information society was caused by a gap in information. It was thought that it was a suitable theory for the 21st century.
It was also interesting to see the Vietnam War as an example in information theory category, which was the biggest problem in the history of the U.S. military.

3.discussion
While many theories suggest the cause of war, I think capitalism is the biggest cause and foundation of war.
[e.g. World War I war supplies sale of U.S, iraq invasion of us.
(Typical assumptions are as follows.
(1) The U.S. military hegemony in the United States may be displayed.
(2) The U.S. military plant may continue to operate.
(3) There may be significant benefits to American businesses.
(4) Strengthen the control of oil in the Middle East.
(5) Using state-of-the-art weapons can be used directly in real life.
(6) We can justify the huge U.S. defense budget.
(7) strengthen the president's image and to dispel the 'Vietnam syndrome' of the people.)]
