Institutionalized: China and Superpower Status | Slouching Towards Columbia
https://slouchingcolumbia.wordpress.com/2013/06/06/institutionalized-china-and-superpower-status
Strategy, politics, and history from the peanut gallery. Institutionalized: China and Superpower Status. June 6, 2013. To American leadership and preferences. Zakaria quotes David Shambaugh (who I was lucky enough to study under as a student), who describes Chinese difficulties this way:. 8220;What do you mean, we. Zakaria insists, though, that if China wants to be a superpower, and wants to be treated like a superpower, it needs to start doing. To defer to the interests of other powers:. And that factua...
On local revisionsism | Slouching Towards Columbia
https://slouchingcolumbia.wordpress.com/2013/03/30/on-local-revisionsism
Strategy, politics, and history from the peanut gallery. March 30, 2013. Dan Drezner has an interesting post. Asking why we do not see more revisionist behavior from Russia and China:. To be sure, China and Russia have , on occasion, engaged in some revisionist efforts to change the status quo. See. And cooperation at the U.N. Security Council…. Spitballing now, I think there are three possible explanations. Why should Moscow or Beijing spend their hard-earned cash on marginally useful client states?
On Reappraising the Civil War | Slouching Towards Columbia
https://slouchingcolumbia.wordpress.com/2013/06/20/on-reappraising-the-civil-war
Strategy, politics, and history from the peanut gallery. On Reappraising the Civil War. June 20, 2013. The Atlantic recently put out an essay on the latest generation of Civil War history. This and other scenes of unromantic slaughter aren’t likely to get much notice during the Gettysburg sesquicentennial, the high water mark of Civil War remembrance. Instead, we’ll hear a lot about Joshua Chamberlain’s heroism and Lincoln’s hallowing of the Union dead. To say otherwise is simply to dismiss the concept o...
Bad WWII History: Neutrality Edition | Slouching Towards Columbia
https://slouchingcolumbia.wordpress.com/2012/05/04/bad-wwii-history-neutrality-edition
Strategy, politics, and history from the peanut gallery. Bad WWII History: Neutrality Edition. May 4, 2012. Tom Parker at Amnesty International, in his criticism of John Brennan’s recent speech on the U.S. drone campaigns, offers up a strange argument. Wars are fought between states in defined theaters of conflict. Brennan drew a comparison with World War II, but World War II was fought on the territories occupied by the parties to the conflict and not just anywhere that was considered expedient. Viewing...

Argued that U.S. aid was insufficient to deter or defeat Russian aims, a dangerous provocation on the part of the U.S., and antithetical to what he saw as the true solution to the conflict:.

https://peaceoftheblogosphere.wordpress.com/2012/03/11/afghanistan-and-beyond-civilians-and-the-consequences-of-conflict
Peace of the Blogosphere. Commentary on conflict in Africa and U.S. politics. Afghanistan and Beyond: Civilians and the Consequences of Conflict. March 11, 2012. We’re just beginning to learn the details of the American serviceman who went on a rampage, killing at least 16 civilians. In Afghanistan. The news is deeply disturbing and there will certainly be ongoing speculation as to what happened and why. Additionally, I’m reminded that civilian casualties in Afghanistan are nothing new.

Res Publica Belli: Freeing the Prisoners of the Mercator Projection
http://respublicabelli.blogspot.com/2011/06/21st-century-map.html
Friday, June 3, 2011. Freeing the Prisoners of the Mercator Projection. Travel writer Robert Kaplan recently observed in his stereotypically elaborate prose that we're all “prisoners of the Mercator projection.” Andrew Exum’s point. Ap tells, and alternatives to the Mercator can give new me. Aning to world events.

Res Publica Belli: December 2010
http://respublicabelli.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, December 18, 2010. Moving Forward, Standing Still. Congratulations to the Senate for doing the right thing. It's about time the policy is put to rest, and all Americans who want to serve are given the opportunity to do so with dignity. On the other hand, shame on you for not passing the DREAM Act. I suppose one out of two ain't bad, especially for Congress, but I can't help but be disappointed in the Democrats on this one. Friday, December 17, 2010. Today, I noticed this piece. Set to be offici...
Res Publica Belli: August 2011
http://respublicabelli.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 7, 2011. Putting up after shutting up. While the tone of this post is one of farewell, that is not what is intended. Res Publica Belli will stick around. One day, perhaps in the near future, perhaps in the distant, the pace of posting will pick up and we'll take another swing at our initial grand design. As it is now, though, life is taking us in slightly different directions. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Putting up after shutting up. All Things Counter Terrorism. The Long War Journal.
Res Publica Belli: May 2011
http://respublicabelli.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 15, 2011. Last week, this post. By Alex Thurston over at Sahel Blog. I do take issue with one line in the post, and the pervasiveness of the opinion behind it. Alex writes. But many foreign affairs “experts” (old and new) claim expertise without possessing what I see as the key requirements for foreign affairs expertise, especially knowledge of local languages and local history. By this logic, the fact that I lived for a couple years in Scotland, can understand a Glaswegian. Some may be more ...
Res Publica Belli: Introduction, and a response
http://respublicabelli.blogspot.com/2011/01/introduction-and-response.html
Tuesday, January 25, 2011. Introduction, and a response. Does my compensation inherently lead towards a compromised worldview? What does it mean to call myself a 'liberal' as I take part in the greatest concentration of power in history and live in a sanitized bubble? I try to ask myself these kinds of questions when the conversation turns to drone strikes and troop levels. I've been following this. And elsewhere. On this blog, Stilicho convincingly argued. Identities, while North Korea controls its fore...
Res Publica Belli: Grand Strategy, Grand Enemies, and Acquisition Cycles (Oh My)
http://respublicabelli.blogspot.com/2011/01/grand-strategy-grand-enemies-and.html
Tuesday, January 11, 2011. Grand Strategy, Grand Enemies, and Acquisition Cycles (Oh My). The conversation about grand strategy. And the need for a grand enemy has been underway over at Ink Spots (and here. A number of folks including Adam Elkus. Have weighed in on the debate. Aside from being well-worth a read, the discussion has helped me clarify some of my own thinking on the topic, and set the stage for this post. It was actually a post by Matthew Yglesias. Most of the impetus that drove the requirem...
Res Publica Belli: China and Democracy
http://respublicabelli.blogspot.com/2011/01/china-and-democracy.html
Thursday, January 27, 2011. I am in no way qualified or comfortable speaking about events in Tunisia and Egypt ( someone who is both. Tumult in the Arab world brought this to mind, but I explore it below in relation to China, the rise of which has been the topic of recent posts by Ezra Klein. And the Daily Dish. We all know China is rising. And undoubtedly the rapid economic, military, and geopolitical growth of that country is something that the US (and other Western countries) must manage carefully.

In it this sleek little coffee machine goes all Terminator on you. Except that. So let's be clear: I was prepared to like the Tassimo T20. That's important. I might be troubled by the noise.
