Abstract
Editors' note. In Volume 33, Number 4, of ISQ an article appeared entitled Burden Sharing and the Forces of Change. In this article, authors John Oneal and Mark Elrod challenged collective goods interpretations of alliances, especially of NATO. Oneal and Elrod put forward an alternative model based on hegemonic stability theory. In the following exchange, James C. Murdoch and Todd Sandler, major contributors to the collective goods approach to alliance studies, defend this school and contrast it on substantive and methodological grounds to Oneal and Elrod's alternative. John Oneal then offers a brief rebuttal in which the challenge to the collective goods interpretation of NATO is reasserted.
