  • Copy of Policy Research16
    UNOFFICIAL ASPECTS OF A LIFE IN POLICY RESEARCH Leslie T Wilkins Research Professor, State University New York Cambridge, U.K. 1999 ABOUT THE AUTHOR The author has experience in both the `hard' and `soft' sciences. He has spent about half of his research career in England and half in the United States. He undertook sponsored research for two President's Commissions in the U.S. and for the Royal Commission on Taxation in the UK He has carried out research in the military, civil and academic settings. Quite early in his career(s) he had an ethical disagreement with an Air Chief Marshal about flying safety research. His R.A.F. commission ended forthwith. Later a disagreement with a Home Secretary on proposed new drugs laws led to his accepting a United Nations assignment in the Far East, after which he was invited to a chair at the University of California at Berkeley. This career also was somewhat turbulent and terminated when, as acting head of a department, he refused to be an informer as demanded by the Regents (Chaired at that time by Ronald Reagan). He was invited to the State University of New York at Albany and on retirement was awarded the title of Research Professor. He received early recognition with the award of the Francis Wood Memorial Prize of the Royal Statistical Society for his epidemiological study of deafness. Thereafter he received honours from several U.S. and international organisations. He officially retired in 1982 at 65 years of age and has since resided in Cambridge where he continues to do odd jobs in research.

  • The Imperial Dimension of Britain's War in the Air, 1914-1918
    THE DOMINION OF THE AIR The Dominion of the Air: the Imperial dimension of Britain’s war in the air, 1914-1918 MICHAEL MOLKENTIN University of New South Wales Canberra Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT It is now well established in the historical literature of the First World War that manpower and materiel, provided by the colonies and self-governing dominions, figured importantly in Britain’s war effort. One area, however, in which the war’s imperial dimension has yet to be properly analysed, is the air war – perhaps the very epitome of the ‘total war’ struggle that British society faced between 1914-18. This article evaluates the imperial contribution to Britain’s war in the air. Besides revealing the considerable extent of empire involvement in the British flying services, it demonstrates something of the distinct and nuanced relationships that colonial authorities had with London, and the way this shaped their respective involvement in the empire’s war effort. When 2nd Lieutenant Eric Dibbs of the Royal Flying Corps (RFC) arrived in France for his first operational posting in June 1917, he discovered that many of his new colleagues hailed from Britain’s colonial settler societies. ‘Essentially an Empire unit’, is how he described the squadron. ‘We had in it three Australians, a number of Canadians, two South Africans, a Newfoundlander, as well as representatives of England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales’. Like Dibbs (himself an Australian) the officers in No. 11 Squadron’s mess all wore the uniform and insignia of the RFC, having eschewed service in their respective dominion forces for a commission in the British service.1 What Dibbs found at No.

  • Britain and the Development of Professional Security Forces in the Gulf Arab States, 1921-71: Local Forces and Informal Empire
    Britain and the Development of Professional Security Forces in the Gulf Arab States, 1921-71: Local Forces and Informal Empire by Ash Rossiter Submitted to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Arab and Islamic Studies February 2014 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. Abstract Imperial powers have employed a range of strategies to establish and then maintain control over foreign territories and communities. As deploying military forces from the home country is often costly – not to mention logistically stretching when long distances are involved – many imperial powers have used indigenous forces to extend control or protect influence in overseas territories. This study charts the extent to which Britain employed this method in its informal empire among the small states of Eastern Arabia: Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, the seven Trucial States (modern day UAE), and Oman before 1971. Resolved in the defence of its imperial lines of communication to India and the protection of mercantile shipping, Britain first organised and enforced a set of maritime truces with the local Arab coastal shaikhs of Eastern Arabia in order to maintain peace on the sea. Throughout the first part of the nineteenth century, the primary concern in the Gulf for the British, operating through the Government of India, was therefore the cessation of piracy and maritime warfare.

    AMERICA THE VULNERABLE Our Military Problems And How To Fix Them EDITED BY JOHN F. LEHMAN AND HARVEY SICHERMAN FOREIGN POLICY RESEARCH INSTITUTE PHILADELPHIA Dedication On a sad note, Colonel Harry G. Summers Jr., U.S. Army (ret.), who penned the article dealing with operations, procurement, and the defense industrial base and sat as a panelist for our second conference, passed away on November 14, 1999. Colonel Summers, a veteran of the Korean and Vietnam Wars, was the recipient of two Legions of Merit, the Silver Star, three Bronze Stars, two Purple Hearts, two Air Medals, and two awards of the Combat Infantryman’s Badge, and also authored numerous books, articles, and columns. He was, in short, the quintessential soldier- scholar. We dedicate this volume to his memory. TABLE OF CONTENTS Preface vii John H. Ball America the Vulnerable 1 John F.
