  • Democracies and Withdrawal from the Iraq War
    European Journal of International Security (2020), 5,45–76 doi:10.1017/eis.2019.10 RESEARCH ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1017/eis.2019.10 . Paths towards coalition defection: Democracies and withdrawal from the Iraq War Patrick A. Mello* Willy Brandt School of Public Policy, University of Erfurt, Germany *Corresponding author. Email: [email protected] (Received 15 November 2018; revised 25 April 2019; accepted 8 May 2019; first published online 14 June 2019) https://www.cambridge.org/core/terms Abstract Despite widespread public opposition to the Iraq War, numerous democracies joined the US-led multi- national force. However, while some stayed until the end of coalition operations, and several increased their deployments over time, others left unilaterally. How to explain this variation? While some studies suggest that democratic defection from security commitments is primarily motivated by electoral incen- tives or leadership change, scholars have not reached a consensus on this issue. To account for the com- plex interplay between causal factors, this article develops an integrative theoretical framework, using fuzzy-set Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) on original data on the Iraq War involvement of 51 leaders from 29 democracies. The findings document the existence of multiple paths towards coalition defection. Among others, the results show that: (1) leadership change led to early withdrawal only when combined with leftist partisanship and the absence of upcoming elections; (2) casualties and coali- tion commitment played a larger role than previously assumed; and (3) coalition defection often occurred under the same leaders who had made the initial decision to deploy to Iraq, and who did not face elections when they made their withdrawal announcements.

  • Speaker Kono
    DELEGATION FOR RELATIONS WITH JAPAN th 28 EP/JAPAN INTERPARLIAMENTARY MEETING 28 May – 1 June 2007 in Tôkyô and Hokkaido REPORT The Delegation for relations with Japan visited Japan from 28 May – 1 June 2007, under the leadership of Georg JARZEMBOWSKI (EPP-ED), Chairman of the Delegation.1 It held the 28th EP/Japan Interparliamentary Meeting at the National Diet of Japan in Tôkyô and met Prime Minister Shinzo ABE as well as Defence Minister Fumio KYUMA. This visit took place at a time when the global recession affected Japan with a particular intensity, given the country's dependency on exports. At the same time, the political climate was troubled, with an ailing government a few weeks or months ahead of a general election, but with an opposition party in an equally difficult position with the public opinion. More immediately, the visit followed immediately the G20 Summit in London, and North Korea had just launched a rocket (claimed to be a satellite launch, but identical to a long- range ballistic missile) the parts of which had landed in the Japan Sea, in breach of the UN sanctions resolutions. PARLIAMENT The Speaker The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mr. Yohei Kono, explained that the Diet was actively involved in the process to reform the constitution, relying in particular on examples taken from EU and EU Member states' experience. The requirement of a referendum was a new concept in Japan. Mr Nakayama explained the electoral rules to be specifically implemented for the referendum, in particular the prohibition of commercial style advertisement in the last two weeks Mr Jarzembowski asked which topics were of most interest to the citizens in Japan, mentioning climate change as main concern in Europe.
