This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lars Schoultz proposes a way for all those interested in U.S. foreign policy fully to appreciate the terms of the present debate. To understand U.S. policy in Latin America, he contends, one must critically examine the deeply held beliefs of U.S. policy makers about what Latin America means to U.S. national security.

Download or read book The Johnson Administration s Cuba Policy written by Håkan Karlsson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-11-30 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the reader with a detailed analysis of the U.S. policy toward Cuba that was designed and adopted by the Lyndon B. Johnson administration. Based in governmental and other sources from both the U.S. and Cuba, the book analyzes the changes in the U.S. policy and its political and practical effects. Cuba still had to face a combination of "dirty war" and "passive containment," but during the course of the 1960s, the influence of the "dirty war" policy was weakened due to the failure of the tactics to overthrow the Cuban Revolution by violent means. Instead, the policy was directed towards "passive containment," characterized by its focus on an intensification of the economic blockade, the promotion of diplomatic isolation, and propaganda campaigns and psychological warfare. The book is unique since it is written from a Cuban perspective and it complements and enriches the knowledge of the U.S.-Cuban relationship during the 1960s, and the policy adopted by the Johnson administration.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: See report The collapse of the Soviet Union has stripped the Castro regime in Cuba of its political, economic and military underpinnings. Castro has assumed a very hard line and insists he will not abandon Communism, but in view of his mounting economic problems, many now wonder whether he can survive. The United States has a multitude of interests in Cuba ranging from vital national security concerns to lesser matters such as political/ideological conflicts, human rights, immigration, and narcotics. Three basic approaches have been suggested for U.S. policy: increase the pressure; maintain the status quo; and engage in a dialogue. A careful analysis of the situation in Cuba indicates that only by promoting the peaceful transition to a democratic successor government in Cuba can U.S. long-range interests be served. An interest-based policy would have a pro- active strategy employing the full range of the instruments of statecraft to secure the political opening needed for such an outcome.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper analyzes the current U.S. foreign policy toward Cuba with regard to the stated objectives contained in The National Security Strategy of the United States of America, 2002. The author surveys the historical/political context of the present impasse, policy studies prepared by government agencies and think-tanks, and joint doctrine for the peacetime use of military forces with the overall objective of determining what foreign policy strategy for Cuba best serves U.S. national security interests in the coming post-Castro era. The research finds that the present foreign policy toward Cuba is counter to national security interests as it can contribute to implosion of the Cuban state, rather than a controlled and stable transition to a democratic society. Key to a stable democratic transition, and the avoidance of a state of lawlessness, is engagement with Cuban society and the one institution most likely to survive and influence the post-Castro political environment--the Cuban armed forces. The author concludes a significant shift in U.S. policy toward Cuba that reduces confrontation and emphasizes cooperation and engagement is necessary to achieve the U.S. objective of encouraging a stable transition of power in Cuba conducive to the eventual development of democracy. The author proposes an immediate, complete, and non-preconditioned normalization of relations with the Castro regime. This "Shock to the System" pre-emptive approach, in which the United States takes the first (and precautionary) move in order to achieve its security interests, is advocated as necessary to build trust and move relations beyond the deadlock of a Cold-war legacy foreign policy. Such an approach will eventually engender confidence building measures necessary to influence the internal institutions that will be the determinant factors in achieving democratic change and economic development in post-Fidel Cuba. Simultaneously, this alternate policy of engagement helps avoid the otherwise possible outcome of continued isolation--a breakdown of social order and lawlessness that could hinder a democratic transition in the post-Fidel era. Furthermore, the author prescribes an active and integral role for the U.S. military in the overall normalization process, through a joint administration of Guantanamo, Naval Station, leading up to its return to Cuban sovereignty, and expanded military-to-military interactions through professional exchanges and in areas of probable cooperation such as counterdrug, humanitarian assistance, civil affairs and peacekeeping operations.

Book excerpt: The United States should reassess current relations with the Republic of Cuba, and adopt a new security strategy that is consistent with the post - Cold War era. RATIONALE: Current United States policy towards Cuba was developed in the early 1960's in the midst of the Cold War. Subsequent administrations have stubbornly stayed the containment course, based on what appears to be nothing more than emotional conviction focused against Fidel Castro. The end of the Cold War provides an opportunity to rationally adjust our national policy in order to make it more realistic, given the level of threat that Cuba poses to United States security today. APPROACH: After an introduction that briefly reviews the events that brought United States/Cuban relations to date, this Strategy Research Project analyzes and evaluates the performance of the current U.S. strategy. Next, it offers alternative strategies (that focus on political, military, economic, and societal factors), and addresses the risk involved with each. Finally, a new strategy is recommended and summarized in the conclusion.

Book excerpt: RAND Project AIR FORCE studied the post-9/11 shift in U.S. defense policy emphasis toward preemptive and preventive attack, asking under what conditions preemptive or preventive attack is worth considering as a response to perceived threats. It considered the role such first-strike strategies are likely to play in future U.S. national security policy. Finally, it identified implications these conclusions have for military planners and policymakers as they prepare to deal with national security threats in the next decade.

Book excerpt: Ever since President Truman invoked the words "national security" to launch the U.S. side of the cold war, government officials have used the phrase to explain, justify, or excuse executive actions that were dubious, illegal, or, as Senator Sam Ervin said during the Watergate hearings, "on the windy side of the law." National security does not simp
Download or read book The Nixon Administration and Cuba written by Håkan Karlsson and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2021-05-11 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a detailed analysis of the U.S. policy that was adopted toward Cuba by the Richard M. Nixon administration between January 20, 1969, and August 8, 1974. Based on governmental, as well as other, sources from both the U.S. and Cuba, this book examines the rupture where the policy of “passive containment” was complemented with a policy of “dirty war.” President Nixon attempted to reestablish a confrontational and violent path of action, and once again, Cuba was exposed to a “dirty war” consisting of different forms of aggressive terrorist activities. Since the conditions for this violent route had changed dramatically both in the U.S. and in Cuba, a policy characterized by a continuity of the economic and psychological warfare came to be the central one for the Nixon administration. This book is unique since it is written from a Cuban perspective, and it therefore complements and enriches the knowledge of the U.S.–Cuban relationship during the end of the 1960s and the beginning of the 1970s, and the policy adopted by the Nixon administration. It is of relevance to everyone interested in the issue, and especially for students and researchers within the disciplines of history and political science.
