  • Adjudicating Competing Theories: Does Civilian Control Over the Military Decrease Conflict

    Open AccessEdward GonzalezARTICLEArmed Forces & Society2024Cited by: 1References: 35

    What explains variation in the propensity for conflict involvement and initiation among states? In the study of international security, a debate remains between those who argue stronger civilian control of the military lowers the likelihood of interstate conflict, and those who argue that states with stronger civilian control over the military will be more conflict-prone. This article adjudicates between these competing theories through the use o…

  • Tipping Points: Challenges in Analyzing International Crisis Escalation

    Open AccessChong Chen, Jordan Roberts et al.ARTICLEInternational Studies Review2022References: 47

    Why do some near crises tip over into full-blown crisis and others do not? This paper considers existing scholarship and identifies four key barriers to using quantitative analysis for tipping-point analyses: strategic indeterminacy; the incentives for conflict parties to avoid inefficiencies; the paucity of cases; and the availability of quality data. Due to these challenges, many do not perform well as immediate causes for crisis escalation. We…

  • Cuba After Castro: Legacies, Challenges, and Impediments

    Edward Gonzalez, Kevin F Mccarthy et al.BOOKCuba after Castro2004

    When the end of the Castro era arrives, the successor government and the Cuban people will need to answer certain questions: How is Castro's more than four-decade rule likely to affect a post-Castro Cuba?

The authors examine Castro's political legacies, Cuba's generational and racial di…

  • Cuba: Clearing Perilous Waters

    Edward GonzalezBOOKCuba1996

    This report assesses Cuba's current political dynamics and economic prospects, and where Cuba is headed. It analyzes the regime's major civilian and military leaders and institutions, the civil society groups emerging outside the regime, and the respective roles of all these actors in the years ahead. It then evaluates how current U.S. policy, and the options of tightening or lifting the embargo, might hasten or hinder the transition toward a mor…

  • Castro's Revolution, Cuban Communist Appeals, and the Soviet Response

    Open AccessEdward GonzalezARTICLEWorld Politics1968Cited by: 8

    Developments in the Cuban revolution between mid-1959 and early 1960 demonstrate both the interaction between the international and domestic systems and the bargaining process involved in Cuban efforts to secure Soviet support. Until the dispatch of First Deputy Premier Anastas Mikoyan to Havana in early February 1960, the Soviet Union had been hesitant about revolutionary Cuba. The radicalization of the revolution which preceded Mikoyan's visit,…
