For three decades the analysis of strategic coercion has been
dominated by two landmark books: Tom Schelling's Arms and Influence
and Alex George's Strategic Diplomacy, both of which addressed the
requirements of American foreign policy during the cold war. This
book argues for a reappraisal of the role of strategic coercion -
defined as the deliberate and purposive use of overt threats to
influence another's strategic choices. It emphasizes the importance
of drawing on the experiences of countries other than the United
States, and of considering the new circumstances of the post cold
war world. An international team of scholars, led by Lawrence
Freedman, Professor of War Studies at King's College, London,
provides critical commentaries on the work of Schelling and George
and a series of fascinating case studies. These cover most regions
of the world, a variety of different actors - including terrorist
groups - and different forms of coercion - including the use of
economic sanctions.
