Chapter 12 SOVIET NATIONAL SECURITY DECISION­ MAKING by Kurt Campbell and Jeffrey W. Legro Winston Churchill's characterization of the Soviet Un­ ion as a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma may overstate Western understanding of the USSR's national security decision-making. The evidence in this domain is sparse, and what we do have is incomplete. Indeed, the Soviets have taken extraordinary steps to maintain the black box that shields how and why their decisions are made. With these caveats in mind, knowl­ edge of Soviet decision-making can be summed up in a few general statements. First, the Soviet leadership is an integrated political-military body, where political au­ thority is dominant, but where the professional military retains an important influence. Second, the role of institutions and individuals varies within and between leaderships, according to the issue under consideration (e.g., doctrine, procurement, etc.), and between times of peace and war.

  • At Cold War's End: Complexity, Causes, and Counterfactuals
    THE LONDON SCHOOL OF ECONOMICS AND POLITICAL SCIENCE At Cold War’s End: Complexity, Causes, and Counterfactuals Benjamin Mueller A thesis submitted to the Department of International Relations of the London School of Economics and Political Science for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. London, 1 October 2015 DECLARATION I certify that the thesis I present for examination for the MPhil/PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work, except where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others (in which case the extent of any work carried out by any other person is clearly identified in it). The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without my prior written consent. I warrant that this authorisation does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. I declare that my thesis consists of 99,864 words. 2 ABSTRACT What caused the Cold War to end? In the following I examine the puzzle of the fast and peaceful conclusion of the bipolar superpower standoff, and point out the problems this creates for the study of International Relations (IR). I discuss prevailing explanations and point out their gaps, and offer the framework of complexity theory as a suitable complement to overcome the blind spots in IR’s reductionist methodologies. I argue that uncertainty and unpredictability are rooted in an international system that is best viewed as non-linear.

About 16,000 people were forced to flee the flames, all but 1,000 of them in California. The Pentagon said Friday even­ ing that nearly 1,000 soldiers from Fort Ord, near Monterey, Calif., would be trained Saturday and be deployed Sunday, said Maj.

The entire air-defense system of the Eastern military alliance proves helpless. A global power is ridiculed. Mik- hail Gorbachev uses the opportunity to replace his military command. Rust’s stunt helped break de- cades of rule by old hardliners, end the war in Af- ghanistan, lower armament expenditures, and give Soviet allies more room for maneuver.

  • Exército De Um Homem Só: O Voo Solitário De Matias Rust
    EXÉRCITO DE UM HOMEM SÓ: O VOO SOLITÁRIO DE MATIAS RUST Nelson Souza Soares* Introdução No dia 28 de maio de 1987 o piloto alemão Matias Rust, então com 18 anos de idade invadiu o espaço aéreo soviético e pousou seu pequeno avião Cessna 172 em plena Praça Vermelha em Moscou a poucos metros do Kremlin. Rust havia ludibriado a sólida defesa aérea da União Soviética e chegado ao centro de sua capital, segundo o piloto, para conversar com Mikhail Gorbatchov em missão de paz. Em 1990 a banda gaúcha Engenheiros do Hawaii lançou o álbum O papa é pop que continha a canção O exército de um homem só I, “dedicada a Mathias Rust e sua solitária invasão ao espaço aéreo soviético”.1 Nesse trabalho trataremos brevemente dessa música e sua representação do fato histórico citado. A produção musical, ao longo da história, é profundamente influenciada pela conjuntura no qual a mesma se insere, revelando aspectos da sociedade na qual foi criada. Esse pressuposto é válido para diversas formas de manifestações musicais, entre elas a da música popular, que para Moraes pode ser encarada “como uma rica fonte para compreender certas realidades da cultura popular e desvendar a história de setores da sociedade pouco lembrados pela historiografia”. (MORAES, 2000:204-205) A Nova História permitiu o alargamento dos recursos que poderiam ser considerados como fonte histórica, os seus objetos de pesquisa se transformaram e se voltaram para a cultura permitindo que uma maior variedade de registros humanos, inclusive as manifestações artísticas fossem aproveitados.

Even if this image has been challenged many times, the main images that come to mind when speaking of the Cold War, are often linked to superpower rivalry between the Soviet Union and the United States, the threat of a military conflict, and nuclear armament. These images have proved tena- cious regardless of scholarship underlining cooperation across apparent ideolog- ical division and cross-border interaction instead of hostility. One of the key weaknesses is that many areas still lack empirical research that would fill in the gaps and provide material to allow us to re-evaluate the extent and impact of the Cold War.
