Abstract

This essay seeks to understand the historical debate around the causes of the Falklands War by exploring, chronologically, three main families of explanations --diversionary strategy, rationalist war, and rally around the flag effect. In separate sections dedicated to each one of these theories, there is an overview of the theory, a detailed explanation of a representative work of that theory, and a brief explanation of the theory's significance to historical debates.
