Dell theory of conflict prevention

Heres a very interesting article that appeared in the Times of India. It talks about how globalisation ushers peace in troubled nations.
Friedman, a three-time Pulitzer Prize winner for journalism and rated America's most important columnist by the New York Times, puts forth in his book what he calls the "Dell Theory of Conflict Prevention ".
This stipulates that no two countries that are part of a major global supply chain, like the American computer company Dell, will ever fight a war against each other as long as both are part of the same supply chain.
Friedman recalls that tense summer of 2002 in the subcontinent when the prolonged military standoff between India and Pakistan led the US State Department to warn American citizens to leave India because the prospect of a nuclear exchange with Pakistan was becoming very real.
"The global American firms that had moved their backrooms and R&D operations to Bangalore were deeply unnerved. "
It was then that Indian technology majors like Wipro, Mind Tree and MphasiS brought the urgency of the matter before the government in New Delhi, saying US companies that had decided to outsource mission-critical research and operations to India were a worried lot . . .
