    The Regime Change Consensus: Iraq in American Politics, 1990-2003

    THE REGIME CHANGE CONSENSUS: IRAQ IN AMERICAN POLITICS, 1990-2003 Joseph Stieb A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History in the College of Arts and Sciences. Chapel Hill 2019 Approved by: Wayne Lee Michael Morgan Benjamin Waterhouse Daniel Bolger Hal Brands ©2019 Joseph David Stieb ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Joseph David Stieb: The Regime Change Consensus: Iraq in American Politics, 1990-2003 (Under the direction of Wayne Lee) This study examines the containment policy that the United States and its allies imposed on Iraq after the 1991 Gulf War and argues for a new understanding of why the United States invaded Iraq in 2003. At the core of this story is a political puzzle: Why did a largely successful policy that mostly stripped Iraq of its unconventional weapons lose support in American politics to the point that the policy itself became less effective? I argue that, within intellectual and policymaking circles, a claim steadily emerged that the only solution to the Iraqi threat was regime change and democratization. While this “regime change consensus” was not part of the original containment policy, a cohort of intellectuals and policymakers assembled political support for the idea that Saddam’s personality and the totalitarian nature of the Baathist regime made Iraq uniquely immune to “management” strategies like containment. The entrenchment of this consensus before 9/11 helps explain why so many politicians, policymakers, and intellectuals rejected containment after 9/11 and embraced regime change and invasion.

    ANNUAL REPORT 2013 2013 ANNUAL REPORT | 1 Dear Friends, At The Sentencing Project we view our work on justice reform as having three components – research, public education, and advocacy. During 2013 I believe we made substantial progress in all these areas, and contributed to the changing national climate for reform. Our research documented both disturbing trends and signs of hope. Our analysis of life imprisonment uncovered the striking fact that one of every nine people in prison is serving such a sentence. We also identified an intriguing shift in the racial dynamics of incarceration, particularly among women, noting that the black/white disparity ratio had been cut in half in the first decade of this century. And we found that there is a The Sentencing Project works for a fair and continuing trend of states closing prisons, with 17 doing so over the past three years.

    JOURNALISM AT A JUNCTURE An Interim Report to the National Press Club Membership on the Nationwide 2008 Centennial Forums Program. By Gil Klein Director, Centennial Forums Project January 16, 2009. For its 2008/9 centennial year, the National Press Club asked me to organize a nationwide series of forums to engage leading journalists, news media authorities, students and citizens in a conversation on “The First Amendment, Freedom of the Press and the Future of Journalism.” At each stop, we gathered a panel of print, broadcast and online journalists as well as a journalism academic or First Amendment scholar – about 130 in all -- to talk about where the news business is going and how to protect its core values as its underlying economic model changes. Crossing the Mississippi River a dozen times, I visited 24 states and the District of Columbia. The NPC president, former presidents and board members hosted events in another four states, and we held forums by live Webcast and two-way satellite communication from the Club to journalism school and public audiences in another six states. In all, the project reached thousands of people in audiences at 38 locations in 34 States and DC, usually at journalism schools, regional Press Clubs and civic auditoriums. Add in C-SPAN’s coverage of the New York City forum, broadcast on local community access television, university channels and public radio stations, as well as public radio interviews, and the project reached a nationwide audience of many thousands more. I bring you greetings from press clubs that co-sponsored our forums in Atlanta, San Diego, Denver, Milwaukee, New Orleans and Naples, Fla.

The three papers that comprise this dissertation, each formatted as separate journal articles, are linked thematically and interrogate the impact of such variables. The First article, entitled “To Underpin or Undermine? Interbranch Relations and the Use of Military Force,” provides an overview of extant literature in the field. Interdisciplinary scholarship provides insight into the influence of interbranch politics on decisions to use military Force in the American context. To appreciate this influence, however, requires an understanding of the changing relationship between the executive and legislative branches of government and the impact of public opinion on both branches of government. This review Finds that our understanding of these Factors is incomplete and requires further study.
