Heterogenous trade interests and conflict:  what you trade matters / 
Han Dorussen 
 -  2006 
<br/><br/> Uses UN trade data from 1970-1997 to test the hypothesis that trade in some kinds of goods will have a bigger impact on the likelihood of conflict than others. Finds that trade generally reduces the likelihood of conflict but that the relationship is weaker for commodities more easily appropriable by force, and stronger for manufactured goods, although there are some notable exceptions such as chemical and metal industries and the hi-tech sector.
