Super K or War Criminal: The Beat Goes On
No figure in the history of contemporary American foreign policy has gotten more ink than Henry A. Kissinger. I suspect, given my historiographical acquaintance with him, that nothing pleases him more, although he probably could do without the criticism. George Ball told me that he had once written a laudatory review of one of Kissinger’s books. It included a single sentence of criticism which elicited a nine-page, single-spaced rebuttal. The lat…

J. William Fulbright, Vietnam, and the Search for a Cold War Foreign Policy
J. William Fulbright was the longest serving and most powerful chair of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Both an intellectual and an internationalist, he had great influence over the course of American foreign relations in the 1960s and 1970s. Fulbright was also the most prominent, and the most effective, of the first American critics of the Vietnam War. His criticism was particularly galling and damning to Lyndon Johnson because Fulbright…
The Substitute War
Writing international history is difficult. It requires multiarchival research, language skills, knowledge of diverse cultures, and the ability to define and describe complex networks of intergovernmental and cross-cultural relationships. At the same time, in their struggle to avoid ethnocentrism and tunnel vision, practitioners of the trade must not give way to what John Lewis Gaddis has called “mindless eclecticism.”1 William Stueck's The Korea…

Origins of the Cold War in Europe and the Near East: Recent Historiography and the National Security Imperative
This essay examines materials published during the last decade or so on the origins of the Cold War in Europe and the Near East, with the goal of determining if something like a synthesis is emerging on the subject. Historians of America's foreign relations, particularly those of us writing on the Cold War, have struggled long and hard to forge a synthesis that integrates the domestic and international forces underlying American diplomacy. The re…

Hull and Argentina: Wilsonian Diplomacy in the Age of Roosevelt
In 1943 a small group of ultra-nationalist Argentine army officers, including the youthful and ambitious Juan Domingo Perón, utilized its control of key Cabinet posts to achieve absolute dominance within the government of General Pedro Ramírez. Blatantly invoking fascist Germany as a model for national emulation, this clique launched an expansionist program aimed at creating an Argentine-dominated neutralist bloc in southern South America. The St…
Blackamerica's Challenge to European Colonialism The Waller Affair, 1891-1895
At the close of the nineteenth century, Africa was the scene of an intense Anglo-French colonial rivalry. Nowhere was this competition keener than in the East African island of Madagascar. While Christian missionaries vied for control of the Malagasy's souls and English and French merchants strove to exploit the island's economic resources, the Quai d'Orsay and Whitehall fought for political influence over the native monarchy. France ultimately e…

The Roosevelt Foreign-Policy Establishment and the "Good Neighbor": The United States and Argentina, 1941-1945
The Good Neighbor Policy was tested to the breaking point by Argentina-U.S. relations during World War II. In part, its durability had depended both upon the willingness of all American republics to join with the United States in resisting attempts by extrahemispheric sources to intervene in New World affairs and upon continuity within the United States foreign-policy establishment. During World War II, neither prerequisite was satisfied, Argenti…
