Roundtable 9-9 on Endurance and War: The National Sources of Military Cohesion

January 3, 2017December 24, 2020 By Alexander B. Downes, Brendan Rittenhouse Green, Phil Haun, Austin Long, Caitlin Talmadge, Jasen J. Castillo

The study of military effectiveness in political science has come a long way in a short period of time. When I started graduate school in the mid-1990s, most of the key works on the subject were written by historians and sociologists rather than political scientists.[1] Beginning in the late 1990s, however, military effectiveness began to…

Article Review 49 on “Flirting with Fascism: The 1934 Report of General Renondeau.” Intelligence and National Security 30:4

February 24, 2016February 2, 2017 By François Romon

This article is based on a report written by General Gaston Renondeau, who served as military attaché to the French embassy in Berlin, to the French Government and to the 2e Bureau de l’État-Major de l’Armée (EMA, the French external military intelligence agency) on 13 November 1934. Thanks to a thorough analysis of the political…

Forum 11 on “The Great Game and Great Reforms of Asia, 1850-1950.”

December 1, 2015February 2, 2017 By Jon Thares Davidson, David Johnson, John E. Van Sant, Cyrus Veeser, Jon Davidann

The theme of the Great Game for this Special Issue of The Journal of American-East Asian Relations which focuses on colonialism and anti-colonialism in Central, East, and Southeast Asia, arises from the original Great Game, which involved a clash of the British and Russian Empires in Central Asia in the nineteenth century.   There are…

Roundtable 7-18 on Imperial Rule and the Politics of Nationalism: Anti-Colonial Protest in the French Empire

June 8, 2015September 14, 2020 By H-Diplo

Imperial rule inevitably brings about a nationalist reaction. A brief glance at the title of Adria Lawrence’s book might suggest that her argument amplifies an already dominant historical consensus. However, such a view would be mistaken because Imperial Rule and the Politics of Nationalism offers a powerful challenge to the common wisdom about colonialism and…

Roundtable 7-17 on Nuclear Strategy in the Modern Era: Regional Powers and International Conflict

May 31, 2015September 14, 2020 By H-Diplo

How do we understand the nuclear strategies of regional powers and how successful are those strategies in deterring conflict? These are obviously important questions for students of world politics, but unfortunately they are also questions that have been largely ignored as scholars focused their attention on the nuclear superpowers of the bipolar era. Of course,…

Forum 8 on “Special Issue: The Origins of the Nuclear Nonproliferation Regime.”

May 18, 2015September 14, 2020 By H-Diplo

Last year, Scott Sagan declared – on H-Diplo – that we are in the midst of a renaissance in nuclear studies, driven by first-rate work by younger scholars.[1] Two qualities in particular mark this scholarship. First, many of these young scholars combine both methodological innovation and rigor while engaging new archival sources. Second, these scholars…

Roundtable 7-15 on The Kennan Diaries

March 23, 2015September 14, 2020 By H-Diplo

An eleven year old George Kennan began keeping a diary on January 1, 1916. At the very start of the diary he wrote “In this simple, little book, A record of the day I cast; So I afterwards may look back upon my happy past” (684). Due to Kennan’s remarkably lengthy and prolific career as…

Roundtable 7-13 on The Great Powers and the International System Systemic Theory in Empirical Perspective

February 22, 2015September 14, 2020 By H-Diplo

It is difficult for me to imagine an international relations (IR) scholar not being interested enough in Bear Braumoeller’s The Great Powers and the International System to read this review symposium. I’ll warrant that I’m biased on the matter, having been nurtured on systemic IR theory as an undergraduate and graduate student, liking books that…

Roundtable 7-11 on the Congress of Vienna and dialogue between IR scholars and historians

January 30, 2015January 23, 2021 By H-Diplo

This year marks the bicentennial anniversary of the Congress of Vienna. From September of 1814 to June of 1815, over 200 representatives met in the Austrian capital to rebuild the foundations of European diplomacy, which lay in shambles after over twenty years of war. It was the great powers, the “Pentarchy” of Austria, Britain, France,…

Article Review 32 on “On Domains: Cyber and the Practice of Warfare.”

January 22, 2015October 4, 2015 By H-Diplo

Over the last few decades one of the hottest subjects of debate in the social sciences has been the emergence of ‘cyber’ and its effects on all manner of social relationships and human communities.[1] The term itself is chronically contested and the understanding of the nature of cyberspace in the literature (i.e., its delimitation, composition,…
