INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will afind good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation. Silver prints of "photographs" may be ordered at additional charge by writing the Order Department, giving the catalog number, title, author and specific pages you wish reproduced. 5. PLEASE NOTE: Some pages may have indistinct print. Filmed as received.

Hermann Margaret G. Hermann dvlser Donald A . Sylvan Department of Political Science For the women in my plan Renee Vanessa; Freida Anne ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The assistance of my dissertation committee is greatfully acknowledged. The many hours spent by Charles Hermann and Margaret Hermann guiding my research provided much benefit. The efforts of Donald Sylvan were crucial to making this work intelligible beyond the bounds of the CREON project. He, more than anyone, was able to instill at least some of the skepticism this research deserves. My intellectual debt to Margaret Hermann, Barbara Salmore, and Stephen Salmore is especially keen. Their theoretical work on the psychological and regime perspectives on foreign policy greatly expanded my understanding. During this research, I was supported by the CREON project at the Mershon Center, Ohio State University. A special word of thanks is due Charles Hermann whose continuous efforts found means of finan cial support. This research was also supported by grants from the National Science Foundation (GS-3117), and the Instruction and Re search Computing Center at The Ohio State University. My deepest appreciation is extended to those friends who pro vided the emotional support necessary to carry through on this study The gentle words so cheerfully given by Carole Jacobson gave me courage to overcome the difficult moments. And my wife, Freida, gave me the security of knowing that I always had a loving family to come home to. Having been assisted by so many friends and in so many ways does not in any way reduce my responsibility for any errors of omission or commission.
