Book Force and Accommodation in World Politics

Download or read book Force and Accommodation in World Politics written by Stanley Spangler and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2012-08-01 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With economic pressures, demographic changes and the acknowledged futility of nuclear war steadily eroding the perceived utility of traditional military force, nations are looking with new favor on the conciliatory tools that were used some effectively during the classical diplomacy of the 19th century (negotiation, bargaining, the use of inducements). In short - a diplomacy emphasizing cooperation and accommodation. Force will still be an important player in international politics, especially at lower levels of conflict. While the world moves slowly toward some new security arrangement, it behooves the superpowers to emphasize a cooperative style of diplomacy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essentially this is a book dealing with the management of international conflict through the use of bargaining, specifically bargaining with coercion and conciliation-in short, the use of both "sticks" and "carrots" to achieve political objectives. Clearly the subject-the use of force and accommodation to achieve political ends-is a topic that has been analyzed over the years by a host of observers, ranging from Niccol Machiavelli to John F. Kennedy. Whether called "deterrence," "coercive diplomacy," "armed diplomacy," "gunboat diplomacy," or whatever, we are interested in how limited force is employed, along with accommodative measures, to influence an adversary and convince him to follow a desired course of action without engaging in a continuing contest of violence. Note that the primary goal is to influence or persuade the adversary to adopt a course of action satisfactory to you; defeating him militarily is not the objective. Force has, of course, long been used as a bargaining tool in international relations. For the most part, however, it has been used, as one might expect, as a threat or "stick" with relatively little attention given to the use of the "carrot"-promises, incentives, inducements, and other accommodative steps. In short, there has been a heavy emphasis on threats and a substantial neglect of promises.

Book Grand Strategy in Theory and Practice

Download or read book Grand Strategy in Theory and Practice written by William C. Martel and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015-01-12 with total page 549 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores fundamental questions about grand strategy, as it has evolved across generations and countries. It provides an overview of the ancient era of grand strategy and a detailed discussion of its philosophical, military, and economic foundations in the modern era. The author investigates these aspects through the lenses of four approaches - those of historians, social scientists, practitioners, and military strategists. The main goal is to provide contemporary policy makers and scholars with a historic and analytic framework in which to evaluate and conduct grand strategy. By providing greater analytical clarity about grand strategy and describing its nature and its utility for the state, this book presents a comprehensive theory on the practice of grand strategy in order to articulate the United States' past, present, and future purpose and position on the world stage.

Divided into five thematic sections, this work provides the reader with a comprehensive overview of developments and debates in this area of study. Topics covered include the history and development of alternative approaches to international relations theory; the importance of domestic politics in shaping a state's foreign policy; the absence of a global 'government' and the meaning and implications of this 'state of international anarchy'; power and its role as a variable in international relations theory and the challenges of state security, war and peace. The introduction anchors the collection, putting the articles within the context of the evolution of this field to date.

Book Status in World Politics

Download or read book Status in World Politics written by T. V. Paul and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2014-04-07 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rising powers such as Brazil, China, India, Russia, and Turkey are increasingly claiming heightened profiles in international politics. Although differing in other respects, rising states have a strong desire for recognition and respect. This pioneering volume on status features contributions that develop propositions on status concerns and illustrate them with case studies and aggregate data analysis. Four cases are examined in depth: the United States (how it accommodates rising powers through hierarchy), Russia (the influence of status concerns on its foreign policy), China (how Beijing signals its status aspirations), and India (which has long sought major power status). The authors analyze status from a variety of theoretical perspectives and tackle questions such as: How do states signal their status claims? How are such signals perceived by the leading states? Will these status concerns lead to conflict, or is peaceful adjustment possible?
