Compellence is a fundamental tool of international security
policy. This study explains how culture shapes the ways that
decision-makers respond to the threat of force. First, Morgan
builds a theoretical framework, next he analyzes three cases in
which states attempted to compel Japan to change its behavior. The
first is an in-depth analysis of the 1895 triple intervention in
which Russia, Germany, and France forced Japanese leaders to return
the Liaotung Peninsula to China following the first Sino-Japanese
War. The second and third relate to World War II: the 1941 oil
embargo intended to coerce Tokyo to withdraw its military from
China and Washington's 1945 efforts to force Japan to end the war.
These cases explain much of the seemingly irrational behavior
previously attributed to Japanese leaders.
Morgan demonstrates that culture clearly influenced outcomes in
all three cases by conditioning Japanese perceptions, strategic
preferences, and governmental processes. These findings are
relevant today, and recent conflicts suggest that they will be
increasingly important into the 21st century. This book offers
policy makers a much-needed method for employing strategic culture
analysis to develop more effective security strategies--strategies
that will be of vital importance in an increasingly volatile
world.
Walter Bagehot (1826-1877), the notable Victorian journalist,
economist, and historian, was a prolific author of both books and
magazine articles. Along with Matthew Arnold he was one of the most
lucid and discerning critics of that time. He contributed to many
journal articles, notably to the Prospective and National Reviews
and The Economist, with a lively and witty style.
Widely considered to be a great authority on banking and finance,
Bagehot was consulted by Chancellors of the Exchequer of both
parties. His outlook, although never hostile to the working classes
or trade unions, was openly sympathetic to the capitalist employers
- a group that had never before such a brilliant spokesman.
His most enduring publications, The English Constitution and
Lombard Street are both republished here, as are his Letters on the
French Coup D'Etat, Literary Studies, and Physics and Politics.
