Developing a Grand Strategy for Peace and Human Security
Radical Islam and Nonviolence
Religious traditions, like national traditions, frequently foment collective violence. Yet all of the world's major living religious traditions also contain the seeds of tolerance, justice, compassion, and peace. A preoccupation with the violent elements of these traditions may impede the expression of their less violent themes. For diverse reasons, religious and political leaders may give insufficient attention to the peace-building prospects in…
The Contribution of the World Order Models Project
In reflecting upon the World Order Models Project since its beginning, one is struck by the wisdom and foresight contained in three foundational themes of its work: (1) the emphasis on fundamental values encompassing peace, economic well-being, human rights, and environmental balance; (2) the study of structural or systemic problems and solutions in a global context; and (3) the centrality of the human species as an important constituency for ana…
Military Policies and the State System as Impediments to Democracy
Military policies impose severe limits on democracy and call into question the viability of the liberal democratic state. Military mentality undermines democratic culture; the complexity of warfare defies public understanding; speed required in decision-making prevents public debate; secrecy misleads the public while often disguising executive abuse of power; vested interests in high military expenditure skew political processes; and concentratio…
Real Security is Democratic Security
Historically breathtaking, the year 1989 signaled the end of the Cold War and the success of antiautocracy movements in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union. Yet, these two momentous developments underscored two other harsh realities. First, the militarily competitive balance-of-power system which spawned the Cold War, the balance of nuclear terror, and the militarization of world society remained in place. No major power stepped forward with even…

Global Security without Nuclear Deterrence
Limiting conflict in the Gulf
Introduction
Human Rights in the 1980s
All people are entitled to share human rights equally. Claims to respect rights may —indeed often must—be made against “foreign” governments and peoples as well as one's own. As interdependence deepens, more human rights problems require global solutions; yet sovereignty inhibits cooperation. Thus the present international system impedes advancement of human rights. Even within countries, tensions are growing between human rights and national sov…
Toward an Alternative Security System
Technological changes and their military consequences have outpaced the capacity of the international system to protect people's security and to meet basic needs. The balance of power system cannot prevent war for long, nor can it reduce to an acceptable level the prospect of nuclear catastrophe. Yet policy makers have excluded from their agendas policies that question this anachronistic system or the basic direction of time-honored diplomacy. Fu…
Normative foreign policy
This article identifies the value impact of the Carter administration's behavior on national security questions, and appraises the extent to which this impact is consistent with Carter's initial, professed national security goals. These goals included the intention to reduce military expenditures, to halt the nuclear arms buildup of the U.S. and U.S.S.R., to prevent the spread of nuclear‐weapons technology to additional countries, to cut U.S. arm…
The Role of Enforcement of Law in the Establishment of a New International Order
This essay examines the need to supplement national self-help in enforcing desirable global norms, explains the potential contributions of a transnational enforcement agency to the creation of a more just and peaceful world polity, describes how such an agency might function, and explores steps for establishing such an agency. The proposed transnational enforcement agency is discussed within the context of a comprehensive process of change that a…

Computer-Based Teleconferencing
Working with others via computer terminal facilitated information exchange but created other psychological barriers
Salt II
Although the SALT II treaty has been signed by President Jimmy Carter, on behalf of the US, and President Leonid Brezhnev, on behalf of the USSR, a fierce debate is raging over whether the US senate should ratify the treaty. This paper joins the debate, but adds a new dimension to it by raising questions which, as if by a tacit agreement between both the advocates and the critics of the treaty, are being kept out of the agenda. Among the gravamen…
