Vietnam: Anatomy of a Peace
Vietnam has experienced huge political and economic development since the war. In Anatomy of a Peace, Gabriel Kolko looks at the main economic phases the Communist Party has embarked upon since 1986 and outlines the transition to nascent capitalism. He also explores Vietnam's relations to its neighbours and the US in the light of social and psychological national features. Based on extensive research and over 30 years first hand experience, Anato…
After Socialism: Reconstructing Social & Political Thought
The Great Equalizer. Lessons From Iraq and Lebanon
The United States had a monopoly of nuclear weaponry only a few years before other nations challenged it, but from 1949 until roughly the 1990s deterrence theory worked-nations knew that if they used the awesome bomb they were likely to be devastated in the riposte. Despite such examples of brinkmanship as the Cuban missile crisis and numerous threats of nuclear annihilation against non-nuclear powers, by and large the few nations that possessed …

The Gulf and Afterwards: The Future of American Foreign Policy
The vast changes that have occurred in the world over the past two years have been so sudden and unanticipated that the United States has been forced to respond in ways that are hesitant, improvised, and only partially calculated. Any close reading of statements and reflections coming from official sources, or from those few participants of the foreign policy establishment they are most likely to listen to, reveals a great deal of uncertainty.

Max Weber on America: Theory and Evidence
Max Weber, in his discussions of methodology in the social sciences, formulated the concept of ideal-types in a manner which suggests that evidence often not of primary concern to the historian. We are asked to create substantive concepts which in their conceptual purity may not be empirically verifiable. A conventional hypothesis, in contrast to an ideal-type, must be tested, and we must have or discover means for its proof or disproof; if the h…
Morris R. Cohen: The Scholar and/or Society
THE GOAL of recent American liberals has been to synthesize basic principles with a politically feasible program directed toward liberal ends. Since the First World War and the deflation of the general belief in inevitable progress, the rise of totalitarianism on the right and left, and the popularization of pessimistic and cyclical theories of bureaucracy and history, the failure of liberals to develop such a unified theory and practice has been…
Economic Mobility and Social Stratification
Since 1929 the economic mobility of selected occupations in the income deciles, based on their average annual incomes, has remained relatively stable. The highest income decile is still composed primarily of professionals, managers, and businessmen, though a larger proportion of clerical workers can today be found in the lowest-income categories. Because of the wide inequalities in income between the deciles, symbols of economic status havew not …

American Business and Germany, 1930-1941
HE QUESTION of the relationship of business to war has become a relatively settled one for most students of recent American history. Even critical historians of the topic have made it abundantly clear that the once acceptable deductions from John Hobson, Rosa Luxemburg, or Lenin on the purportedly inexorable relationship between capitalism and war will not accomodate our knowledge of actual business behavior. Less critical historians have gone so…

This examination of the relationship of the economy to political process in the United States from 1877 to 1916 shows how the railroad industry encouraged and relied on national politics to solve its economic problems, and created a precedent for government regulation of the economy in the twentieth century. The continuity in governmental regulation from 1877 to 1900, in the Progressive Era, and in the administrations of Roosevelt, Taft, and Wils…
