How Is Going to War Like Buying a Car?: The Bargaining Model of War
The bargaining model of war, a popular, yet complex international relations theory, emphasizes how nations communicate signals regarding military strength, resolve to fight, and foreign policy goals. Since the military plays a major role in communicating these signals, its leaders should understand this theory, despite its complexities.

Predicting Officer Physical Assaults at Domestic Assault Calls
Empires of the Atlantic World: Britain and Spain in America, 1492-1830
The recognition that Europe's overseas expansion bred competing colonial empires—in contrast to the more monolithic growth of a Rome or China—has long alerted historians to the opportunities for their comparative assessment, even as the range of expertise required has rendered this approach more preached than practiced. Sir John Elliott's long-awaited study, nearly two decades in the making, takes on the task with grace and skill. A renowned hist…

As Jack Greene has noted in a recent essay, the field of early American history is being swept by a search for synthesis. Three large volumes by David Fischer, D. W. Meinig, and Bernard Bailyn have presented broad interpretations of North American colonial development in the context of an Atlantic world.' Alongside these, Greene appropriately sets his own Pursuits of Happiness: The Social Development of Early Modern British Colonies and the Forma…

John Nelson: Merchant Adventurer: A Life Between Empires
John Nelson Merchant Adventurer: A Life Between Empires
John Nelson was an entrepreneur born in the mid 17th century, a man, in Johnson’s words, `operating ahead of the government and settled society from which he came’, one who responded to conventions and conditions derived from several different and often competing cultures’. In the case of Nelson, this meant operating in England and France in Europe and in French Canada and New England in America. In several major transactions, he acted as middlem…

ALL classical palaeographers are familiar with Persius' roster of writing materials: Now we take the book to hand, and the two-coloured parchment purged of hair, and papyrus, and a knotty reed. Of the items mentioned, only ‘two-coloured parchment’ presents any difficulty.I hope in this article to present at least a possible solution to this problem. An obvious supposition would be that Persius is merely referring to the natural differences in col…
