A major generalization from that work was that government had played an important role in the development of almost every general purpose technology in which the United States was internationally competitive. Preparation for several speaking engagements following the publication of the book led to a reexamination of what I had written. It became clear to me that defense and defense related institutions had played a predominant role in the development of many of the general purpose technologies that I had discussed. The role of military and defense related research, development and procurement was sitting there in plain sight. But I was unable or unwilling to recognize it! It was with considerable reluctance that I decided to undertake the preparation of the book I discuss in this paper, Is War Necessary for Economic Growth? Military Procurement and Technology Development.

  • Summary of AG-021 United Nations Department of Political Affairs (1992-Present)
    Summary of AG-021 United Nations Department of Political Affairs (1992-present) Title United Nations Department of Political Affairs (1992-present) Active Dates 1914-2009 Administrative History The Secretary-General, in a February 1992 note (A/46/882) announced a number of changes related to the restructuring of the United Nations Secretariat, with effect from 1 March 1992. He stated that the changes in the departments and top echelon of the Secretariat were intended to consolidate and streamline the Organization's activities into well-defined functional categories. The main aspects of the restructuring included the establishment of the Department of Political Affairs headed by two Under-Secretaries-General (USGs) with clearly defined geographical responsibilities and functions. The new Department of Political Affairs incorporates the activities of the former Office for Political and General Assembly Affairs and Secretariat Services; Office for Research and the Collection of Information; Department of Political and Security Council Affairs; Department for Special Political Questions, Regional Cooperation, Decolonization and Trusteeship; and the Department of Disarmament Affairs. The Under-Secretaries-General for 1992 was James O.C. Jonah and Vladimir F. Petrovsky, and for 1993 was Marrack Goulding and James O. C. Jonah. The Under-Secretary-General for 1994-1996 was Marrack I. Goulding, followed by Kieran Prendergast (1997-2005), Ibrahim Gambari (2005-2006), and B. Lynn Pascoe (2007-present). Disarmament Affairs was under the mandate of DPA for the span of 1992-1997. Office of Disarmament Affairs (1992-1993) - The Office of Disarmament Affairs was a part of the Department of Political Affairs from 1992 until 1993, and then was renamed the Centre for Disarmament Affairs.

Eisenhower became the 34th President of the United States with a landslide, thus ending the Democratic Party twenty years occupancy of the White House. He also carried his Party to a narrow control of both the House of Representatives and the Senate. His success, not the Party’s, was repeated in 1956. Even more impressive than Eisenhower’s two landslide victories was his ability to protect and maintain his popularity among the American people throughout the eight years of his presidency.

  • The Law of Submarine Warfare Today
    Jacobson 205 Chapter VIII The Law of Submarine Warfare Today by Jon L. Jacobson* Introduction he roles of military submarines have evolved throughout the twentieth T century. In wartime, these roles have included coastal defense, harassment of enemy fleets, and, especially in World War II, hunting and destroying the seaborne commerce that supported the enemy's war efforts. Today, two principal roles for u.s. submarines, at least in any future war with the Soviet Union, are probably as anti-submarine weapons (attack submarines) and as strategic weapons platforms (ballistic missile submarines). Other missions, however, could include coastal defense, attacks on the enemy's surface fleet, projection of force ashore, and commerce warfare.1 The laws of war have never been comfortable with the submarine's unique combination of stealth and vulnerability. As will be explained below, it is this peculiar mix of strength and weakness that can be blamed as the root cause of the legal dilemma, particularly as it relates to the submarine's role as a commerce raider. The legal responses to this twentieth-century weapons platform have ranged from early proposals for its abolition to justification of its use under the rules of reprisal to tolerance of it as an effective war machine with characteristics that regrettably require some adjustments in the traditional laws of war. The U.s. Navy's new Commander's Handbook on the Law of Naval Operations (NWP 9) includes references to the laws of naval warfare that specifically address the submarine weapons system and also rules that apply, or can apply, to submarines and their roles in wartime.

This included United Nations action with regard to Namibia, in particular the involvement in the transition to independence. Sixteen interviews with key players in this process were conducted in 1998 – 1999. The oral interviews as well as the transcriptions are available at Yale University and on the website of the United Nations’ Dag Hammarskjöld Library, New York. This accession consists of downloads of the digital transcriptions, which can be accessed on the local server, and printouts of the texts. The oral recordings are not available at the National Archives, and can only be accessed online via the Dag Hammarskjöld Library. Researchers should take note that the transcriptions frequently contain misspellings of personal names and place names. No effort from the side of the National Archives has been made to correct the spelling.

Foremost among these individuals, I would like to thank Professor Jonathan Marwil, who had advised me throughout the writing of this thesis. Over countless hours he persistently pushed me to do better, work harder, and above all to write more consciously. His expert tutelage remains inestimable to me. I am gratified and humbled to have worked with him for these many months. I appreciate his patience and hope to have created something worth his efforts, as well as my own. I would like to thank the Department of History and the Honors Program for both enabling me to pursue my passion for history through their generous financial support, without which I could never have traveled to Abilene, Kansas. I would like to thank Kathy Evaldson for ensuring that the History Honors Thesis Program and the Department run smoothly. I also never could have joined the program were it not for Professor Kathleen Canning’s recommendation. She has my continued thanks. I would like to recognize and thank Professor Hussein Fancy for his contributions to my education. Similarly, I would like to recognize Professors Damon Salesa, Douglass Northrop, and Brian Porter-Szucs, who have all contributed to my education in meaningful and important ways.

CSBA’s goal is to enable policymakers to make informed decisions on matters of strategy, security policy and resource allocation. CSBA provides timely, impartial and insightful analyses to senior decision mak- ers in the executive and legislative branches, as well as to the media and the broader national security community. CSBA encourages thoughtful participation in the de- velopment of national security strategy and policy, and in the allocation of scarce human and capital resources. CSBA’s analysis and outreach focus on key questions related to existing and emerging threats to U.S. national security. Meeting these challenges will require transforming the national security establishment, and we are devoted to helping achieve this end. about the authors Mark Gunzinger is a Senior Fellow at the Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments.
