Once More Over the Transom
This article discusses the decade (2003–2013) in which Joseph Jockel and David Haglund co–edited the International Journal . As suggested by the title, it was a time of transition for the Journal , reflected not only in changing organizational mandates but also in major transformations in how scholar journals were henceforth to be produced
Brebner’s North Atlantic Triangle at 80
Does Brebner’s classic study of Canadian grand strategy penned during the period of the Second World War continue to possess any ongoing policy meaning for Canada? This article argues the perhaps counterintuitive proposition that not only is Brebnerian imagery of continued relevance to Canadian strategic culture, but its importance has also increased in recent years. This is because the postulated alternative regional foci that were mooted in the…
The North Atlantic Triangle and North Atlantic Treaty
This article examines the secret ‘security conversations’ between the United States, Britain and Canada that took place in Washington, DC, between 22 March and 1 April 1949. These ‘ABC’ talks produced a document known as the Pentagon Paper, which played an important part in the origins of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. For reasons of both foreign policy and domestic politics, the Pentagon Paper was portrayed at the time as essentially an…
Squaring the circle? France, the war in Ukraine, and the delicate balance between security and “autonomy”
Back to the Future? Implications of the Trump Administration's "Bad Neighbor Policy" for North American (and possibly Transatlantic) Security and Defence
The JFK Paradox and the Challenge of Rating “Canada’s Presidents”
This article addresses the analytical challenges posed by the administration of John F. Kennedy for scholars who would seek to “rate” American presidents from the perspective of Canadian interests. No one in Canada seems to have much of a desire to try to rank-order the presidents systematically. But if they did, the Kennedy administration would present an enigma for them, because while America’s 35th president was very popular with Canadians, hi…
Amigo shoring (1940)
There has been an intensifying debate lately within America's circle of allies regarding the merits of "de-risking" the economic relations they conduct with autocratic great powers. Sometimes this debate makes explicit appeal to the novel name of "friend shoring." The name may be new, but what it represents – namely an American (and allied) desire to minimize security problems stemming from economic interdependence – can be dated back to the mid…
Operating in tandem? assessing the linkages between anti-Americanism and Antisemitism in France
In for a penny, in for a pound
Over the past couple of decades, students of American grand strategy have debated the merits (or lack thereof) of an orientation toward the global balance of power that has come to be known as “offshore balancing.” Its critics hold offshore balancing simply to be another way of expressing the dangerous allure of strategic “restraint,” or even “isolationism.” Its enthusiasts, by contrast, see in it nothing other than the best conceivable grand str…
Happy anniversary? Reflections on Samuel Huntington's “clash” thesis at thirty
This article takes a retrospective look at the controversial “clash-of-civilizations” thesis articulated by Samuel Huntington in the early 1990s. In some respects, the “pearl anniversary” of the thesis reveals it to have stood up reasonably well. If one notable aspect of the Huntingtonian prognosis was its skepticism about the prospects of enduring peace subsequent to the ending of the Cold War, then it could be remarked that the Harvard professo…
Greenland (1940) as an Instance of Pickwickian ‘Cooperation’ Between King’s Ottawa and Roosevelt’s Washington
The German invasion of Norway and Denmark in April 1940, which is usually regarded as marking the end of the so-called Phoney War between Germany and the Allies, also led to a short-lived diplomatic stand-off between the United States and Canada. The tension stemmed primarily from misapprehensions in both North American countries over what should be done about Greenland, the Danish colony whose political and legal status had suddenly been placed …
Of Canaries and Ropes
In late May 2022 Canada joined its four other partners in the intelligence-sharing community dubbed the "Five Eyes", and banned the Chinese telecommunications firm Huawei from participation in its 5G network. This article explains what has been at stake for Canada and other countries in this saga, doing so in a way that emphasizes the tightly intermeshed nature of internal and international security. The metaphors in the article’s title draw our …
The Guns of April
Over the past several years, there has been a renewed scholarly interest in the origins, waging, and consequences of the First World War. This interest has resulted partly from a quirk of timing given that between 2014 and 2019, a series of centennial commemorations kept minds focused on a conflict that many take as the most consequential war the world ever experienced. On the other hand, interest has been stimulated not so much by the past as by…
From Parkman to Pearson
“Strategic culture” is one of those conceptual bridges that link history with political science because, among other reasons, it reminds us of the hold that memories of past events can continue to exercise upon contemporary reality. But those memories are always subjective, sometimes downplayed to the point of nearly being forgotten altogether, at other times so overstated as to yield a highly distorted sense of the past and of its relationship t…

How the West Was One
Making America Grate Again
For decades the Republican Party has embracedAmerica’s open, future-oriented nationalism. But when younominate a Silvio Berlusconi you give up a piece of that.1 LATE ON THE NIGHT of Tuesday, 8 November 2016, when pundits on America’s many television networks were suddenly beginning to grasp that the all-but-guaranteed election of Hillary Clinton as the 45th president of the United States was not going to occur, a member of the team covering the d…
The paradigm that dare not speak its name
This article examines the place that “realism” occupies in the debates over International Relations theory and Canadian Foreign Policy. Argued here is the claim that realism is far from being a dominant paradigm in the Canadian academy, which in itself is hardly a surprising finding. However, realism’s relative absence from the scholarship on Canadian Foreign Policy disguises a more important finding: there has been a fairly longstanding Canadian…
Southern (Over) Exposure? Quebec and the Evolution of Canada’s Grand Strategy, 2002–2012
One of the most persistent themes in the debate on Canadian foreign policy over the past few decades concerns the influence Quebec is thought to possess over the design and implementation of Canadian foreign and defense policy. Our purpose in this article is to situate this general debate within a more specific context, of Canada’s grand strategic choices as they principally involve the country’s security and defense relations with the US. To do …
Woodrow Wilson Still Fuels Debate on ‘Who Lost Russia?’
Jefferson in Montreal
The last Québec election campaign featured an interesting (if unusual) injection of a long-dead American president into the heated public-policy debate over the Parti québécois’s proposed “charter of values,” which if adopted would have imposed certain restrictions on the manner in which civil servants and some others would be permitted to give symbolic expression to their religious convictions while functioning in the public sphere. The presiden…
Roundtable review and response
Of ghosts and other spectres
Our intent in this article is to try to determine if the manner of the Cold War's ending can suggest anything useful to those of us who ponder whether the twenty-first century will be able to break from the dismal cyclical pattern of all previous centuries, and become the first span of decades to exorcise the evil spirit of great power war. Our task is to employ cyclical constructs in such a manner as to cast doubt upon the ‘cyclical determinism’…
What Can Strategic Culture Contribute to Our Understanding of Security Policies in the Asia-Pacific Region
This article reflects on application of the concept of strategic culture to supply analytical and policy-relevant guidance to those who ponder the future of security relations in the Asia-Pacific. Argued here is that, notwithstanding some obvious problems with the concept, there is utility in the application of strategic culture to the analysis of regional security challenges. To claim that strategic culture may not be equally applicable to all s…
Going Against the Flow
Can states as well as non-state political ‘actors’ learn from the history of cognate entities elsewhere in time and space, and if so how and when does this policy knowledge get ‘transferred’ across international borders? This article deals with this question, addressing a short-lived Hungarian ‘tutorial’ that, during the early twentieth century, certain policy elites in Ireland imagined might have great applicability to the political transformati…

Will Nato Go East? The Debate over Enlarging the Atlantic Alliance
Seldom has an issue split the Western policy community as dramatically as the debate over NATO enlargement. Not only does the issue bring to the fore much that has been latent in post-Cold War power relationships; the participants in the debate enter with their favourite luggage in hand: forecasts of Russian behaviour, definitions of Europe and its institutions, trans-Atlantic futures, the appropriate role for the United States, and of course one…

What Good is Strategic Culture
INTRODUCTIONOscar Wilde famously referred to fox-hunting as the unspeakable in pursuit of the inedible. With apologies to Wilde, those of us bounding off over conceptual hedges in quest of strategic culture might be called the unintelligible in pursuit of the incomprehensible. For no matter how achingly compelling is the need to render our concepts sharp tools for analysis, we unfailingly get entangled in constant wrangling over their very defini…

George C. Marshall and the Question of Military Aid to England, May-June 1940
In a Foreword to the most recent biography of Harry Hopkins, W. Averell Harriman has put some words into the mouth of Winston Churchill. According to Harriman, if the British Prime Minister had been asked to pick the two Americans, apart from President Franklin D. Roosevelt, who were most responsible for stopping Hitler, he would have replied: 'Among the military, General Marshall, and among the civilians, Harry Hopkins'.' After the war, or even …

Let's Call the Whole Thing Off’? Security Culture as Strategic Culture
Scholars interested in contemporary security and defence policy, in Europe as elsewhere, often seek refuge in conceptual havens, and the articles in this special issue are no exceptions. One of those sheltering spots has been dubbed security culture, while another fashionable resting place carries the label, ‘strategic culture’. This article argues that attempts to draw a distinction between the two categories are superfluous, not to say meaningl…

The case of the missing democratic alliance
This article is concerned with the linkage social-constructivist theory makes between threat and alliances. It constitutes a theoretical and empirical inquiry into the postulated origins of something known as the ‘democratic alliance’, that is, an ideal type security arrangement whose most concrete manifestation many constructivists say has been NATO. Although NATO's future has received a great deal of their attention, constructivists have, with …

Oil Politics and Canada-United States Relations
The Canadian-American has recently undergone major strains. It is hard to believe that scarcely four years have passed since Canadian diplomatic personnel helped a group of American embassy officials escape from Tehran, and in so doing earned for Canada a passionate, if shortlived, vote of thanks on the part of both the American government and the public. The official mood in both capitals then changed dramatically in a relatively short period of…

Unbridled Constraint
This article argues that the three volumes of the Macdonald Commission research output devoted to international political economy (vols. 28 to 30) demonstrate a bias toward what might be labeled “neo-realist” analysis. As a result, they nearly all are steeped in a degree of pessimism regarding Canada's place in the evolving international political economy—a pessimism that extends not only to future prospects for the. multilateral trading system, …
The Missing Link
The Central American crisis has occasioned a great deal of discussion in Canada over the past half-decade, and there is no reason to assume that the coming years will see any abatement of the public interest in the region and its problems. If anything, one can foresee an increase in concern over Central American issues and for reasons other than the likely growth in the proportion of the Canadian population with Central American roots or affiniti…
