Roundtable 13-13 on Armed Guests: Territorial Sovereignty and Foreign Military Basing

August 5, 2022August 5, 2022 By Stacie Goddard, Tarak Barkawi, Molly Cochran, Brian Rathbun, Michael Williams

Since the end of World War II, the US has relied on a vast network of military bases to project its power across the globe. So ubiquitous are these bases that they often melt into the background of US grand strategy, and are treated “as part of the given background conditions on which contemporary international…

Roundtable 13-12 on Restraint in International Politics

August 1, 2022August 3, 2022 By Daniel J. Levine, Lina Benabdallah, Benjamin H. Friedman, Manali Kumar, Maria Mälksoo

Manners constitute a restraint.[1] Toward the end of Second World War, the British defense intellectual Basil Liddell Hart began publishing extensively on fashion and manners.  In part, this reflected his much-diminished standing in policy circles: personal scandal, an emotional breakdown, and political maneuverings had taken their toll on Britain’s one-time ‘unofficial Chief of the Imperial…

H-Diplo Essay 448- Thomas G. Paterson on Learning the Scholar’s Craft

July 22, 2022August 26, 2022 By Thomas G. Paterson

“Excuse me, sir,” an aide interrupts the president. “History is here to see you.” George W. Bush perks up. “History?” The assistant explains: “He seems ready to render a judgment.” Taken aback, the chief executive asks: “What about my papers? I don’t want him snooping around my papers!” No problem. “Already locked up forever, sir….

H-Diplo Essay 444- George C. Herring on Learning the Scholar’s Craft

June 24, 2022June 14, 2022 By George C. Herring

I have often reflected that through some stroke of good fortune I drifted rather aimlessly into a career that has been rewarding and immensely satisfying. As a student at Roanoke College, 1953-1957, I could have been a poster boy for the so-called Silent Generation: apolitical, devoid of ambition and sense of purpose, floating with an…

H-Diplo Essay 443- Francis M. Carroll on Learning the Scholar’s Craft

June 16, 2022June 9, 2022 By Francis M. Carroll

I have so enjoyed reading this series of articles in H-Diplo by diplomatic historians on how they came to this profession.  What particularly has fascinated me are the twists, turns, and chance that somewhat improbably led so many to rewarding careers in the study and teaching of the history of international affairs.  I certainly fall…

H-Diplo Essay 441- James H. Lebovic on Learning the Scholar’s Craft

June 3, 2022May 26, 2022 By James H. Lebovic

I have never been one for introspection.  I tend to look forward, not backward.  I suppose, however, that a career in international politics is a natural choice for me, given my own family history.  If not for World War II, my parents would not have met.  Then, global politics became a family affair, with relatives…

Roundtable 13-11 on Grand Strategy from Truman to Trump

May 27, 2022June 7, 2022 By Paul Avey, Mariya Grinberg, Ionut Popescu, Hilde Eliassen Restad, Peter Dombrowski Benjamin Miller and Ziv Rubinovitz

This roundtable is a rarity, not for the H-Diplo/ISSF Roundtable Review series, of course, but for roundtables published in many journals and online fora; it begins with a serious, well-written book and continues with three serious, well-written, critical review essays.  There is not a clunker in the mix.  The complete package is a model for…

Review Essay 65 on Following the Leader: International Order, Alliance Strategies, and Emulation

May 26, 2022May 19, 2022 By Evan Braden Montgomery

Military alliances are a crucial and much-studied aspect of world politics. They are also a defining feature of US grand strategy. During its tenure as the leading state in the international system, the United States has assembled an unprecedented network of security relationships that extend across the globe, including its multilateral alliance with other members…
