Brian Healy and Arthur Stein reached five conclusions about the applicability of international theory to the decade of the 1870s in their essay that was published in the Journal of Conflict Resolution, 1973. We offer data from the 1880s (as well as the 1870s) that extend and modify their work: concluding that there is no net tendency toward structural balance in the international system
