Measurable in qualitative and quantitative terms, the Reagan administration had a transformative impact on bilateral ties, institutionalizing ad hoc forms of cooperation while modifying prevailing discourse to recognize Israel as an ‘ally’ and a ‘strategic asset’ in the Cold War.

  • The Defense Budget and Civil-Military Relations in the Carter Administration, 1977-1978
    Conflict, Cooperation, and Congressional End-Runs: The Defense Budget and Civil-Military Relations in the Carter Administration, 1977-1978 John D. Mini A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters in American History in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2007 Approved by: Advisor: Richard H. Kohn Reader: Joseph T. Glatthaar Reader: Wayne E. Lee © 2007 John D. Mini ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT JOHN D. MINI: Conflict, Cooperation, and Congressional End-Runs: The Defense Budget and Civil-Military Relations in the Carter Administration, 1977-1978 (Under the Direction of Richard H. Kohn) President Jimmy Carter became commander-in-chief at an important juncture in American civil-military relations. This study adds to the largely neglected historiography of civil- military relations during the Carter years by examining the administration’s first two years, using the civil-military dialogue surrounding the fiscal year 1978 and fiscal year 1979 defense budgets as its primary category of analysis. The study demonstrates that growing cooperation within the Pentagon, increasing conflict between the Pentagon and the White House, and a strengthening military-congressional alliance best characterized civil-military relations in the first two years of the Carter administration. This pattern of civil-military relations prevailed primarily due to early and intense presidential involvement in the defense budgetary process and because of the administration’s attempts to re-prioritize defense spending. The culmination of this pattern of civil-military relations in the administration’s first two years was the presidential veto of the fiscal year 1979 defense appropriations bill.
