| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study examines how dependency influences threat perception formation. More precisely, the study asks whether or not dependency alleviates threat perception and if so by what mechanism. The study examined dependency and threat perception of dyads and found that threat perception was alleviated the most when there was interdependency. In cases where only one of the dyad is dependent on the other, threat perception of the dependent was restrained. This is contrary to the prediction of both liberalism and realism. In interdependence, countries devoted efforts to dampen differences or problems within the coalition. The behavior was moderated and criticisms were restrained. When security dependency decreases, member of the former coalition no longer restrain problems. The other member reacts to this change of behavior and voices criticisms and concerns. This, in turn, is perceived to indicate aggressive intentions, hence resulting in threat perception.
