The democratic peace theory is both a major liberal international relations theory and a strategic and rhetorical guide of American hegemony. By a careful examination of Doyle’s democratic peace theory and Kant’s perpetual peace, this article tries to critically unravel the theoretical foundations and practical, ethical implications of the democratic peace theory. This article finds ungrounded Doyle’s claim that Kant provides the best guidance for the separate peace among democracies. Kant’s repubican constitution is an idea derived from his transcendental concept of public rights; unlike Doyle, Kant does not view the Republican constitution embodied in Western democracies or any other existing polities. Neither does Kant confine the membership of peace federation to democracies. Moreover, Kant’ s moral imperative to pursue perpetual peace contradicts the bifurcated moral indulgence of the separate peace.
