    Diplomats and diplomacy: Assessing the influence of experience in the implementation of U.S. foreign policy by Justin Eric Kidd B.S., Louisiana State University, 1988 M.S., Florida Institute of Technology, 1998 M.M.A., Marine Corps University, 2003 AN ABSTRACT OF A DISSERTATION submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Security Studies Program College of Arts and Sciences KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2018 Abstract In 2008, Ambassador’s Neumann and Pickering wrote letters to Senator’s Obama and McCain, with recommendations on qualifications for US Ambassador’s. Both Senator’s had recently received their party’s nomination for President, and Neumann and Pickering took the opportunity to suggest qualifications they believed were necessary for US ambassadors to perform their diplomatic tasks better. Their letters suggested that career ambassadors perform better, and they recommended that political appointees be limited to ten percent. The historical average has been roughly thirty percent. They also recommended that ambassadors have previous regional experience, and be knowledgeable about the countries in which they would be assigned, as well as speak the local language. What their letters were missing was evidence these traits actually make a difference in how well ambassadors perform their roles. In fact, this evidence is missing from the extant literature describing ambassadorial roles and responsibilities. This dissertation seeks to quantitatively and qualitatively analyze Neumann’s and Pickering’s qualifications, marking the first time this important subject has been examined using social science methodology.

  • Political Legitimacy and National Identity in Saudi Arabia: Competing Allegiances
    POLITICAL LEGITIMACY AND NATIONAL IDENTITY IN SAUDI ARABIA: COMPETING ALLEGIANCES FREDERICK W. WESTON, III National identity in the Arab world is a tenuous concept, often intertwined with and overshadowed by social and cultural allegiances. The Al-Saud family, rulers of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, have managed to unite the disparate religious and ethnic elements of their society - at least they have united them enough to forge a functioning nation-state. But not all Saudi subjects accept the Al-Saud's kingdom as synonymous with their own concept of a true national identity. Frederick W. Weston, III traces the history of the Al-Saud's efforts at state-building and concludes that national identity is still an unresolved question for the kingdom. Modernization has strengthened allegiance to the nation but weakened allegiance to the state (the Al- Saud) among the emerging middle class; this has potentially serious implications for the ruling family's political legitimacy. "A Saudi? I carry a Saudi passport, yes; but I am an Arab." - Arab student to the author, Jeddah, 1983 Lurking in the student's response is an entire complex of personal, societal, and political perceptions which are at best only occasionally compatible. Questions of Arab national identity and political legitimacy that arose in the 19th century are still valid; the failure to reconcile them accounts for much of the unrest we witness in the Middle East today (for example, in Lebanon, Iraq, and Palestine). Frederick W. Weston, III, who worked and traveled in Saudi Arabia from 1981 to 1984, is a candidate for the MAID degree at The Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy.

  • A Robot Shadoof
    NEW WATERBIRD FOR EGYPT A ROBOT SHADOOF HEN the present United States Ambassador to Egypt, Richard W Nolte, left his Connecticut home to take up his new diplomatic post in Cairo a few weeks ago, he had in his possession a toy bird with a red head, a pot belly, a green tail, yellow legs, big red boots, and a one-track mind. Once set within appropriate distance of an adequately filled glass, this mechanical creature occupies its time exclusively in wetting its beak, leaning back, wet­ ting its beak, leaning back, and wetting its beak again. The Ambassador told me he would put the bird on top of his desk in the Embassy and attach a one-word label; shadoof. He said everybody in Egypt would get the message immediately upon see­ ing the bird's head dip into the water. Those who are unfamiliar with the shadoof, the most ancient and primitive water-lifting device in Egypt (shown in action in the drawing at the left), may read the meaning of the "drinking bird" toy in a following RESEARCH FRONTIER report. Rather than anticipate that in­ terpretation, I shall use this introductory space to explain why I gave the only model of the bird that I had to Ambas­ sador Nolte. Certainly I acted under no illusion about the State Department's eagerness to take science seriously as a force in foreign policy.
