Seapower as Strategy: Navies and National Interests
A noted defense analyst and naval weapons expert lays out the roles of navies and naval strategy in the twenty-first century. Drawing upon historical examples, Norman Friedman first explains how and why naval strategy differs from other kinds of military strategy and then provides a sense of the special flavor of a maritime or naval approach to national security problems. The various uses of navies are described and illustrated by extended case s…

The Fifty-Year War: Conflict and Strategy in the Cold War
More than half of the twentieth century is marked by global war, from World War I and World War II to the period of protracted, though largely nonviolent (at least for the primary actors), conflict between the United States and the Soviet Union known as the Cold War. The unexpected dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991 brought a sudden and surprising end to that conflict, and scholars since then have tried to explain why the Cold War ended as q…

The Future Shape of the U.S. Navy
To be effective in a post-Cold War environment, the future U.S. Navy ought to be an outgrowth of the current form built around carriers and major amphibious ships. To the extent that economies are desirable, they should be made in limited-role antisubmarine warfare escorts rather than in carriers and carrier-capable escorts. Such a future navy would have the vital virtue of being able to shift back to confrontation with a major power such as the …

The maritime strategy and the design of the U.S. fleet
The current U.S. maritime strategy exemplifies a force‐planning mechanism alternative to conventional systems analysis. Flaws inherent in systems analysis become particularly evident when it is applied to maritime forces, which are least tied to specific scenarios or specific modes of operation and which actually gain much of their efficacy from their flexibility, hence from the ambiguity of the threats they present to a prospective adversary. Th…

Religion's Subsystem: Toward a Sociology of Jewish Education
Jewish education may be viewed as a subsystem of the American Jewish religious institution. An analytic outline of the sociology of Jewish education indicates: (a) an expanding postwar subsystem, primarily religious in sponsorship and orientation; (b) broad subsystem aims of knowledge and identity formation, but ondy mildly demonstrable socialization effects; (c) largely female and part-time occupational recruits, weakly professionalized; and (d)…

New Orders and Old: Historians, Educationists, and the Dynamics of Academic Imperialism
How historians began to take over the history of education as carried on by professors of education is analyzed as an instance of academic imperialism by a Professor of the Sociology of Education at the University of Southern California. He sees here a social movement going through stages of unrest, popularization, formalization, and institutionali zation. The Old Order, initially responding defensively, may turn toward self-revitalization by acc…

Jewish or Professorial Identity? The Priorization Process in Academic Situations
The concept of “priorization”—that definitional process whereby an acting unit, in regard to a given situation, gives precedence to one of his role-, identity-, self-, or membership-/reference-orientations over another or others—is introduced. Examples from past studies of academic organizational roles and of ethnic identity experiences are cited. A research case illustration, concerning the definitions of 42 Jewish-born college professors in dil…
