This is due in part to the infamous Arab Springi that added a twist to Tunisia's foreignrelations too, presenting a dilemma for many countries that deal with Tunisia. This paper studies the domestic politics andforeign policies of Tunisia from independence to date chronicling the period of five governments, three of which happenedafter the...

Soft power as a concept is a very new phenomenon in the realm of sovereign state politics, popularized by Joseph Nye in the 1990s. Thence on, scholars, intellectuals and academicians have been making a serious effort to understand the enigmatic concept of power from various dimensions. Today, soft power is known by multiple names – attractive power, pull power, co-optive power, incentive power, gentle power, etc. The policy of soft power does not limit itself within the ambit of international...

According to the World Development Report 2011, 1.5 billion people worldwide, roughly half of whom earn less than a dollar a day, live in the so-called “fragile states” until recently known in the World Bank as Low-Income Countries Under Stress (LICUS). These Low-Income Countries have attracted increasing attention. Some economists argue that Egypt, a home to almost 90 million people 25% of whom earn less than a dollar per day, is on the way to become a potential LICUS state. This paper...

his animated jumbo of a book, which is alive with the savor and color of a long departed time when half-forgotten figures like Oswald Garrison Villard and Raymond Gram Swing were setting our intellectual attitudes, provides fascinating chart readings on the drift of liberal opinion from peace to war between 1931 and 1941. The resulting verdict on liberalism, modern American style, is melancholy any way you take it. Either the liberals were wrong at the beginning of the decade of the 'Thirties,...

This study by the great historian J. B. Bury appeared in Byzantinische Zeitschrift (Leipzig, 1906) pp. 517-577. It is a description and analysis of the 10th century Byzantine emperor Constantine VII Porphyrogenitus' manual known as De Administrando Imperio. This document was written by the emperor in 948-952 for his son and heir Romanus II, as a guide to foreign and domestic policies. It describes, among many other things, the histories and characters of the nations neighboring the Empire or...

This paper describes the development of a systematic and empirical procedure for keeping account of international activities which raise the likelihood that one nation will come to the defense of another. In particular the concern here is to provide a conceptual framework to help guide the development of an analytical technique for identifying, measuring, and monitoring international commitments, where the use of force is implied. The underlying assumption of this work is that while it is very...

An international crisis, however defined or conceptualized, generates serious stress with which decision makers must cope. Distinguished from other international phenomena by its high levels of threat and surprise, and relatively short decision time, a crisis is the perfect setting for mishap, miscalculation, accidental war, unanticipated consequences and disaster. (C. Hermann, 1972:13-14). All of the ingredients necessary for bridging the peace- war gap are embodied in a crisis. Crisis...

A turbulent international system is likely to spawn, with increasing frequency, international crises. But the very causes of the system's turbulence render forecasting--which actors are most likely to be involved over what issues and under what circumstances--virtually an impossible task. There is, however, some theoretical justification to expect that while forecasting who, what, where and when may be extremely difficult to predict, it is possible to forecast the likelihood that a given...

The report considers precautionary policies to counter the threat of future disruptions in the supply of U.S. oil imports. Such disruptions are highly possible, since the conditions that produced the Arab embargo of 1973-74 have not been eliminated. The authors review the recent oil embargo and U.S. responses to it, examine the history of U.S. petroleum imports, and weigh the outlook for future imports by source and relative vulnerability.
