  • Dean Acheson and the obligations of power

    Geoffrey Warner, G Ray WarnerARTICLEInternational Affairs2018

    Dean Acheson is one of the most influential of United States secretaries of state and the British historian, Michael F. Hopkins, has written an important study of his life. Even before his appointment to the post in January 1949, the Groton- and Yale-educated lawyer had made his mark in more junior positions in the US State Department. Thus, Hopkins tells us, ‘by the end of 1946 Acheson and President Truman had developed a relationship of conside…

  • A Korean conflict: The tensions between Britain and America. By Ian McLaine

    Open AccessGeoffrey WarnerARTICLEInternational Affairs2016

    Anyone reading this book should begin on page 318, where the reader will find the statement that ‘in the time between his death and the publication of this monograph, Dr Ian McLaine's footnotes cardfile was lost. The [nineteen] notes below are either the results of archival crosschecks by a posthumous editor or marginal notes that could be confirmed’. This is a great pity because Ian McLaine clearly consulted a wide range of British and American …

  • Geopolitics and the Cold War

    Geoffrey WarnerCHAPTEROxford Handbook of the Cold War2013

    This chapter examines the geopolitical aspect of the Cold War. It discusses the origin of the term “geopolitics,” and investigates how and why relations between the United States and the Soviet Union deteriorated so rapidly after the World War 2. The chapter highlights the incompatibilities between the ideologies of the two superpowers, and explains that communism and free-market capitalism are polar opposites. It also argues against the claims a…

  • The IRA and Its Rivals: Political Competition and the Turn to Violence in the Early Troubles

    Simon Prince, Geoffrey WarnerARTICLEContemporary British History2013Cited by: 4References: 21

    Northern Ireland after October 1968 rapidly descended into civil war. Local conflicts were of central importance in this turn to violence. By looking at the civil rights movement and then at Belfast Republicanism, this article argues that fragmentation and competition created incentives for groups and individuals to adopt violent strategies. Both the overarching conflict and the myriad local conflicts which were linked to it shaped how the early …

  • Anglo–American Relations and the Cold War in 1950

    Geoffrey WarnerARTICLEDiplomacy and Statecraft2011

    1950 was a crisis year in the Cold War and saw a growing rift between the United Kingdom and the United States over how best to wage it. It was in the Far East that the most dangerous crisis occurred. Britain recognised the People's Republic of China, not only because the Communist regime clearly controlled the mainland, but also because it was felt that it was not irretrievably linked to the Soviet Union. The United States, on the other hand, re…

    The Cambridge history of the Cold War is a three-volume work by 75 contributors, mostly from the United States and the United Kingdom, and is intended as ‘a substantial work of reference’ on the subject.

At the same time, it aims …

    I This second article on the Johnson administration's policy towards the war in Vietnam, based on published American documents, covers the period from July 1965 to March 1968.

    Based upon recently published American documents, this article examines the United States's policy towards the crisis which led to the breakup of Pakistan and the formation of Bangladesh at the end of 1971. President Richard M. Nixon and his national security advisor, Henry Kissinger, deliberately kept this policy closely under their control and were guided more by geopolitical than by moral considerations. In particular, they were anxious to for…

    At the beginning of 1964 there were around 20,000 US military ‘advisers’ in South Vietnam, working alongside the South Vietnamese army in the latter's campaign against the communist guerrillas, led and supplied by the government of North Vietnam. By the summer of 1965 there were 125,000 American troops in the country, with more pledged for future deployment. Most of these were not ‘advisers’, but combat forces openly engaged in fighting the commu…

    This paper introduced a method of calculating the proportion, and its standardized index, of the GINI coefficient that is due to the overlapping of the incomes of different groups in a population. This Lorenz curvebased index measures the degree to which all groups, collectively, form different strata in a population as opposed to the degree to which an individual group forms a stratum in the population. It is useful for describing the degree of …

    The success of black or white mothers in obtaining adequate prenatal care is examined. Two departures from public health convention are employed. The independent variables’ marginal effects are calculated from their logit coefficients. The odds ratio of care adequacy between races is derived from race-specific regressions. It yields a smaller variance and type II decision error likelihood compared to the race dummy method. A working-class life ou…
