In pursuit of a new Silk Road
Compact colonialism
For decades, the United States has administered compacts of free association with the Republic of Palau, the Republic of the Marshall Islands, and the Federated States of Micronesia. Scholars have criticized the United States for using the compacts to limit the sovereignty of the compact states, but they have not determined how the compact states fit into the American empire in the Pacific Ocean. A review of the U.S. documentary record from the e…
Dispatches from Nigeria
Royal Dutch Shell and ChevronTexaco played central roles in the Warri Crisis, a period of deadly violence in the Nigerian oil town of Warri in 2003 and 2004. Scholars have portrayed the crisis as a resource war between local ethnic groups, but US diplomatic cables published by WikiLeaks show that Shell and ChevronTexaco shaped the main events of the crisis. The two oil companies pressured the Nigerian government to intervene in Warri when violenc…
Dispatches from Havana
During the early twenty-first century, U.S. diplomats in Cuba helped Cuban dissidents mobilize opposition to the Cuban government. Journalists and scholars have shown that the diplomats aided the dissidents, but the literature has yet to fully incorporate details from the U.S. diplomatic cables that were published by WikiLeaks from 2010 to 2011. Nearly 500 cables in the WikiLeaks archive were written by U.S. diplomats in Havana between 2006 and 2…
The WikiLeaks Cables
The disclosure of more than 250,000 American diplomatic cables by the dissident media organisation WikiLeaks in 2010–2011 gained much attention in the American mass media but generated little interest for diplomatic historians. A small number of scholars explored small parts of the archive, but diplomatic historians and political scientists largely dismissed the cables as insignificant source material. These scholars overlooked important primary …
Staying the course in Mexico
With drug-related violence reaching record levels in Mexico, there has been growing debate over its causes. US and Mexican officials blame many factors, including problems with their strategy in the drug war, fighting among cartels, corruption in police forces, an ineffective legal justice system and US drug demand. In this paper, I argue that the Mérida Initiative, a multi-billion dollar programme of US assistance, is an important additional fac…
Dispatches from Baghdad
When the dissident media group WikiLeaks published more than a quarter-million US diplomatic cables from 2010 to 2011, it included thousands of cables written by US diplomats involved in the War in Iraq (2003–2011). Although the scholarly literature covers many aspects of the war from the perspective of US officials, it has largely excluded the viewpoints captured by the WikiLeaks cables. In this article, I use the cables to reveal the thinking o…
