Soviet Disarmament Policy--What Lies Ahead?, Raymond G. Burkemper

Naval War College Review

Disarmament has not been achieved in the world today because each of the major nations involved is influenced by certain differing pressures and goals. In the center of this stalemate stand the United States and the Soviet Union. This paper is a study of the disarmament policy of one of these two main adversaries---the Soviet Union.

U.S. Naval Policy, Arthur C. Herrington Jul 2018

U.S. Naval Policy, Arthur C. Herrington

Naval War College Review

It is a privilege and a real pleasure to be able to speak to you this morning, but it is with some trepidation and, frankly, with misgivings that l have chosen to discuss U.S. Naval Policy at the War College. There are two reasons, however, that have impelled me to tempt your patience and, perhaps, your good will.

World Outlook And Foreign Policy Of Communist China, Clyde B. Sargent Jun 2018

World Outlook And Foreign Policy Of Communist China, Clyde B. Sargent

Naval War College Review

Our subject is "The World Outlook and Foreign Policy of Communist China." This subject implies describing the world as it is seen by the Communist Chinese, and this is not an easy task for any Westerner. In my reading for this presentation I have consulted Chinese, Indian, Australian, and American sources of interpretation, but l have relied even more upon my own long observation and study of historical and contemporary Chinese attitudes.


Contemporary Foreign Policy In Historical Perspective, Joseph C. Harsch Jun 2018

Contemporary Foreign Policy In Historical Perspective, Joseph C. Harsch

Naval War College Review

When I received the invitation to address this audience on the subject of "Contemporary Foreign Policy," I began to reflect on the episode, in my own experience which I thought might have some relevance to the changes we see occurring in the world today. The first thing that came to mind was a moment back in October of 1939, just after the Germans had overrun Poland. I arrived, a novice in such matters, in the city of Berlin and sought out the advice of the American military attack, a man greatly respected and honored in the American community in Berlin …

Soviet Policy Toward Sadat's Egypt From The Death Of Nasser To The Fall Of General, Robert O. Freedman Jun 2018

Soviet Policy Toward Sadat's Egypt From The Death Of Nasser To The Fall Of General, Robert O. Freedman

Naval War College Review

At the time of Nasser's death the Soviet Union had reached the pinnacle of its influence in Egypt and throughout the Middle East. 1 The Russians had acquired air and naval bases in Egypt which greatly enhanced their military position in the eastern Mediterranean vis-a-vis the United States and had obtained port rights in Syria, Yemen, South Yemen, the Sudan, and Iraq, which gave increased Soviet access to the Red Sea, the Persian Gulf, and the Indian Ocean.


The Soviet Navy's Role In Foreign Policy, Richard T. Ackley Jun 2018

The Soviet Navy's Role In Foreign Policy, Richard T. Ackley

Naval War College Review

The peacetime role of naval forces in a nation's foreign policy is often obscure and tends to be neglected in foreign policy literature. While the dramatic growth of the Soviet naval fleet has not gone unnoticed, most articles on the subject have stressed the Soviet naval challenge to United States or NATO seapower.

Iran And American Security Policy In The Middle East, Bard E. O'Neill, Paul R. Viotti Jun 2018

Iran And American Security Policy In The Middle East, Bard E. O'Neill, Paul R. Viotti

Naval War College Review

In October 1973 the Organization of Arab Petroleum Exporting Countries (OAPEC) sent shock waves through the industrialized world when it decreased the overall produc­tion of oil and embargoed the United States, Portugal, South Africa, and the Netherlands. The impact of these developments and a subsequent quantum rise in oil prices for the Western states and Japan was immediate and far reaching. On both sides of the Atlantic and in Tokyo there were fears of recession and even depression, the possibility of millions unemployed, and of massive deficits in the balance of payments.


Soviet Policy Toward The Middle East From The Exodus Of 1972 To The Yom Kippur War, Robert O. Freedman Jun 2018

Soviet Policy Toward The Middle East From The Exodus Of 1972 To The Yom Kippur War, Robert O. Freedman

Naval War College Review

Since their 1955 arms deal with Egypt, Soviet policymakers have sought to establish the Soviet Union as the dominant power in the Middle East. The main thrust of this strategy has been simply to replace the Western Powers in their former positions of political, military and economic influence within the region. The Soviet leaders have engaged in massive economic aid projects such as the Aswan and Euphrates Dams; they have contributed large amounts of sophisticated military equipment to many of the states of the region; and more recently they have sought to consolidate their influence through long-term ''Friendship and Assistance" …

Towards A New Order Of U.S. Maritime Policy, Geoffrey Kemp, Harlan Ullman Jun 2018

Towards A New Order Of U.S. Maritime Policy, Geoffrey Kemp, Harlan Ullman

Naval War College Review

The United States does not have a coordinated or articulated maritime policy sufficient to cope with the fundamental changes taking place in the strategic environment. Unless we make certain critical decisions concerning the nature and direction of this policy for the next decade, we may find our international pos1t1on severely eroded.


Intervention And Détente In American Foreign Policy, Robert S. Wood Jun 2018

Intervention And Détente In American Foreign Policy, Robert S. Wood

Naval War College Review

In the century after the 1648 Treaty of Westphalia, the European state sys­tem was established on the basis of the political principle of territoriality and of the legal principle of sovereign equality. The former notion entailed the effective control by the major princes within established territorial limits and the second concept established the norm of complete political jurisdiction by the prince and his government within these territorial boundaries unencumbered by any earthly, external authority.

American Attitudes Toward Foreign Policy, Brent Scowcroft Jun 2018

American Attitudes Toward Foreign Policy, Brent Scowcroft

Naval War College Review

The character of the role of the American people in international affairs has been molded to a considerable extent by two factors-the attitudes and perspectives of our founding fathers and our geopolitical position. Our early leaders were profoundly influenced by the age of the enlightenment that period of intellectual ferment based on the proposition that the application of rational thoughts could cure the ills of mankind and bring about peace and harmony.

Power In Soviet Policy Over The Next Ten Years, John Scanlan May 2018

Power In Soviet Policy Over The Next Ten Years, John Scanlan

Naval War College Review

In evaluating the role that power will play in Soviet policy over the next ten years one should keep in mind that we are dealing with a dynamic and continually expanding Soviet Russian empire which since 1917 has justified its expansion both to itself and to the world in Marxist-Leninist terms. Marx declared that the communists would gain their ends by peaceful means, but if they could not, they would achieve them by force of arms.
