Caring For, About, and With
An investigation of the relationships between empathy, music learning, and shared music values may provide new insights into the ways that musical meaningfulness and the symbiotic eudaimonic ideal – “flourishing of oneself and of others” – might be cultivated. We investigated the relationships between parent perceptions of children’s empathy, parent beliefs and values about music, and formal Suzuki training over a period of 6 months, to understan…
Zbigniew Brzezinski
“I could see some of Zbig's prejudices,” President Jimmy Carter told me in 2002. “Zbig, to some extent like Kissinger, was very concerned with the Soviet Union ... Normalizing relations with China drove the Soviets up the wall.” Carter leaned toward me: “Brzezinski was my treasure.”1 An intellectual biography of Zbigniew Brzezinski is overdue. Justin Vaïsse has stepped into the void. He brings several advantages to the task: an accomplished Frenc…

Foreign Relations of the United States, 1977–1980. Volume XVI
I did not anticipate that my primary emotion upon reading this volume of the Foreign Relations of the United States [hereafter FRUS XVI] would be nostalgia. As I read the hundreds of documents, I found myself thinking, again and again, about how times have changed. Professionally, for the better: the field of diplomatic history has moved beyond the nationalistic and bureaucratic constraints of the FRUS enterprise. And politically, for the worse: …

Tropes of the Cold War
In June 1979 Jimmy Carter chose to defy Congress by declaring the first multiracial Rhodesian elections invalid because the guerrillas fighting the white minority regime in Salisbury had not participated in them. Why was Carter able to transcend the compelling tropes of the Cold War and view the guerrillas – who would have been deemed terrorists had they been in Central America or Iran or Palestine – as freedom fighters? This essay debunks the no…
Zwei Wege in die Moderne
Historians of U.S. foreign relations at the beginning of the twentieth century have been drawn to the narrative of U.S. imperial expansion; historians of German foreign relations of the same period have been equally fixated on the roots of World War I in Europe. One result is that the fascinating and important subject of the evolution of U.S.-German relations in the crucial period before 1914 has been neglected. A group of German scholars, rallie…
The Danger of Dreams
The Danger of Dreams
American imperialism in Latin America at the beginning of the 20th century has been explained, in part, as a response to the threat posed by Germany in the region. But, as Nancy Mitchell demonstrates, the German actions that made the US defensive - and have been held up ever since as evidence that Germany aimed to challenge the Monroe Doctrine - prove to be, on close inspection of German, US and British archives, a potent mix of German bombast an…

The Height of the German Challenge
The years between the Spanish-American War and the First World War, when the United States put teeth into the Monroe Doctrine, are known as the era of protective imperialism. It is an appealing label, one that reminds Americans that they were not grabbing land for their own advantage, like the Europeans did. Theirs was a new, a different, a better imperialism. The United States would uplift Haiti. It would bring prosperity to the Virgin Islands. …
Protective Imperialism versus Weltpolitik in Brazil
seventy years of existence as a dream, the Monroe Doctrine began to acquire teeth. France, Spain, Russia, and Great Britain tacitly acknowledged it; the British fleet was withdrawing from the western hemisphere; and the US fleet was growing into one capable of confronting an enemy on the high seas in a Mahanian battle for supremacy. The doctrine's reach continued, nevertheless, to exceed its grasp. The German navy was growing faster than the US n…
