Whitford All rights reserved ABSTRACT “The Quality of the Ordinary”: Anglo-American Diplomacy and the Third World 1975- 1980 Andrew J. Whitford The recovery of the Anglo-American relationship in the late 1970s took place in the Third World. The “Special Relationship” between the United States and Britain reached its post World War II nadir in the decade between 1964 and 1974. Simultaneous to this decline in the relationship was the growing power and influence of the Third World in international institutions. By the end of the Vietnam War in 1975, both the United States and Britain were suffering political and economic turmoil brought about by increased oil prices, labor unrest, and inflation. The two countries worked together to navigate a broad array of problems to include the Third World’s increasing hostility to Israel and calls for a New International Economic Order in the United Nations, a growing refugee crisis in southeast Asia, the spread of the Cold War to southern Africa, and questions about decline and disorder at home. In the United States, neoconservatives began to assert a greater role in international affairs by questioning both the future of British socialism and the wisdom of appeasing the Third World. Within these constraints, British and American statesmen acted to end white rule in Rhodesia to contain communist expansion, care for refugees while upholding international law within real fiscal constraints, and free American hostages held in Iran. Through both their actions and their improved mutual understanding, intellectually and politically diverse statesmen such as Henry Kissinger, Anthony Crosland, Andrew Young, and Peter Carrington established a balance in the Special Relationship that allowed the United States and Britain to cooperate in the Third World while respecting the other’s independence.

I could not have balanced my roles as a husband, father, student, teacher, and Army officer without a great deal of help, guidance, encouragement, and support. My first and most important thanks go to my family who endured three moves, four jobs, writing during holidays and weekends, and multiple odd vacations and trips. Angie and I moved to New York to start my graduate studies with about a week to prepare. Jack and Oliver joined us along the way from Columbia to West Point to Kansas to Texas. Their love, support, and patience mean the world to me. My parents David and Nancy and my in-laws Jim and Shirley have also been supportive and encouraging every step of the way. The staff and faculty at Columbia University fostered an environment that was simultaneously intellectually challenging and socially welcoming. The faculty and staff were utterly committed to passing on the best traditions of the profession of history. Professor Susan Pedersen was the best adviser any student could ask for, and her generosity, professionalism, and mentorship was invaluable over the years. Professors Christopher L. Brown, Kenneth Jackson, Matt Connelly, and Anders Stephenson helped me prepare for orals and to make sure interest in the “Special Relationship” translated into a focused and interesting project. At the London School of Economics, Nigel Ashton helped me frame the project and better understand the Anglo-American relationship. Classroom time with Professors Alan Brinkley, Carol Gluck, Victoria de Grazia, Mark Mazower, Caterina Pizzigoni , and Emma Winter sharpened my thinking and my writing. I owe a debt of gratitude to my fellow graduate students who were the best kind of intellectual compatriots: Carolyn Arena, Hannah Barker, Melissa Borja-Westin, Sayaka Chatani, Joanna Dee Das, Claire Edington, Arunabh Ghosh, Matt Gomlak, Toby Harper, Justin Jackson, Abhishek Kaicker, Julia Del Palacio-Langer, Tom Meaney, Ariel Mercik, Julia Nordmann, Omar Sarwar, Simon Stevens, Simon Taylor, and Tamara Mann Tweel The staff and faculty at the Department of History at the United States Military Academy were incredibly supportive of my endeavors. Brigadier General Lance Betros (Ret.), Colonel Gian Gentile (Ret.), and Colonel Kevin Farrell (Ret.) all fostered a culture of academic and military excellence. My fellow instructors were some of the best sounding boards imaginable for teaching, research, and writing. I would especially like to thank Colonel Greg Daddis, Major Casey Doss, Major Geoff Earnhart, Dr. David Frey, Dr. Matt Flynn, Major Josiah Grover, Dr. Jonathan Gumz, Dr. Eugenia Kiesling, Dr. Bill Leeman, Major Tom Moore, Matt Muehlbauer, Lieutenant Colonel Jason Musteen, Major Bill Nance, Major Joe Scott, Dr. John Stapleton, Dr. Charlie Thomas, Dr. Steve Waddell, Major Jay Warren, Dr. Jacqueline Whitt, and Lieutenant Colonel Gail Yoshitani. The view presented herein are mine alone and do not represent the views of the Department of Defense or its components, including the United States Military Academy and the United States Army Command and General Staff College. iii Dedication For Angie, Jack, and Oliver. We ask you to push back The horizons of our hopes; And to push back the future In strength, courage, hope, and love. Francis Drake iv “It’s the quality of the ordinary, the straight, the square, that accounts for the great stability and success of our nation. It’s a quality to be proud of. But it’s a quality that many people seem to have neglected.” Gerald Ford, 1973 v Chapter 1: “An Alliance No More? The 1970s and the Special Relationship” In 1975, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and the United States of America were wary rivals in a global ideological and political struggle over which hung the pall of nuclear weapons. The British Empire had dissolved and in its absence Britain had fallen from the top tier of world powers into a “State of Emergency”. 1 For the liberal democratic victors of the Second World War, the post-war social and economic consensus that had eased the problems of the 1930s had unraveled during the “shock” of the 1960s and early 1970s as the Keynesian balance between inflation and unemployment had morphed into “stagflation”. 2 The socialist model of politics and economics was gaining increasing international acceptance. 3 The 1970s were a period of multiple domestic and foreign crises that forced the United States and Britain to operate in an uncertain world. 4 The alliance known as the “Special Relationship” between the British 1 Dominic Sandbrook, Seasons in the Sun: The Battle for Britain, 1974-1979 (London: Allen Lane, 2012), 8–13 is a good recounting of the fall of the Heath government in the aftermath of the Oil Shock of 1973. 2 Niall Ferguson et al., eds., “‘Malaise’: The Crisis of Capitalism in the 1970s,” in The Shock of the Global: The 1970s in Perspective (Cambridge: Belknap Press of Harvard University Press, 2010), 27–38. 3 The best starting point for a comparison of the different Soviet and American approaches in the Third World during the Cold War is Odd Arne Westad, The Global Cold War: Third World Interventions and the Making of Our Times (Cambridge ; New York: Cambridge University Press, 2005). Post-Stalin Soviet approaches to the Third World are covered in Alvin Z Rubinstein, Moscow’s Third World Strategy (Princeton, N.J.: Princeton University Press, 1988). 4 Recent scholarship on the 1970s in general includes Thomas Borstelmann, The 1970s: A New Global History from Civil Rights to Economic Inequality (Princeton University Press, 2011).

Philip Jenkins, Decade of nightmares : the end of the sixties and the making of eighties America (New York: Oxford University Press, 2006) specifically identifies 1975 as a turning point in American history where fear and anxiety became the dominant drivers of behavior.

TO MY WIFE LOIS Prologue For years I had wondered what the last day would be like. In January 1976 after two decades in the top echelons of the British Security Service, MI5, it was time to rejoin the real world. I emerged for the final time from Euston Road tube station. The winter sun shone brightly as I made my way down Gower Street toward Trafalgar Square. Fifty yards on I turned into the unmarked entrance to an anonymous office block. Tucked between an art college and a hospital stood the unlikely headquarters of British Counterespionage. I showed my pass to the policeman standing discreetly in the reception alcove and took one of the specially programmed lifts which carry senior officers to the sixth-floor inner sanctum. I walked silently down the corridor to my room next to the Director-General's suite. The offices were quiet. Far below I could hear the rumble of tube trains carrying commuters to the West End. I unlocked my door. In front of me stood the essential tools of the intelligence officer’s trade - a desk, two telephones, one scrambled for outside calls, and to one side a large green metal safe with an oversized combination lock on the front.

  • The Other Side of Campus Indiana University’S Student Right and the Rise of National Conservatism
    The Other Side of Campus Indiana University’s Student Right and the Rise of National Conservatism JASON S. LANTZER n a brisk spring day in March 1965, an estimated 300 Indiana 0University students assembled in Dunn Meadow, the green oasis beside the Indiana Memorial Union where students often relaxed between classes or met to play games. This day was different, however, as these students gathered not to enjoy the atmosphere, but to speak their minds about the war in Vietnam. They carried signs, chanted slogans, and generally behaved, according to the campus newspaper, the Indiana Daily Student (IDS), in a manner not unlike that of an additional 650 students and locals who had also assembled in the meadow to hear speeches about the civil rights move- ment in the wake of the recent march on Selma, Alabama.‘ This convergence of civil rights and Vietnam demonstrations may sound like a typical episode of 1960s campus activism, but it was not. A good half of the students attending the Vietnam rally marched in support of the United States’ commitment to halting the advance of communism in Southeast Asia. While such a show of support was hardly uncommon, either at IU or at other college campuses nationwide, subsequent studies of 1960s Jason S. Lantzer is a visiting lecturer in history at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis. For reading of and assistance with this essay, he extends his thanks to Prof. Nick Cullather, Chad Parker, and the IMH staff. ‘Indiana Daily Student, March 10, 11, 12, 13, 1965; hereafter cited as IDS INDIANA MAGAZINE OF HISTORY, 101 (June 2005) 0 2005, Trustees of Indiana University.
