Congress, the Executive, and Foreign Policy
The Atlantic Community. Progress and Prospects
Regionalism and the United Nations
Old soldiers may “just fade away” as General Douglas MacArthur reminded us, but the controversy over the relative merits of regionalism and globalism in international organization will ever be with us. That question generated as much heat as any other issue at San Francisco in 1945 with the possible exception of the veto. In more recent years the inadequacies of the United Nations, the changing nature of the Cold War, the growth and expansion of …
The Atlantic Community and the United Nations
When I reported to a colleague that I was writing a chapter on the relationship between the Atlantic Community and the United Nations, the response was immediate, emphatic, and somewhat disconcerting. “What do you propose to say?” he snorted. “Actually the two things are quite separate and distinct. There really is no relationship between them at all
The United States and the United Nations
The United States and the United Nations
The United Nations is in a period of peril. Soviet disruptions threaten to destroy its effectiveness. The West and its friends are not united in their support of it or in their advocacy of policies. Many newly admitted members have yet to demonstrate international political responsibility. The fiscal basis upon which the organization operates is not sound. The United States potentially can help strengthen the United Nations and, at the same time,…
Soviet Diplomacy
Because of the nature of modern weapons, rela tions between the West and Russia will determine man's life in the future. All facets of Russian society are at the disposal of her diplomacy while US foreign policy is dependent on Con gress, the people, and group interests. Stalin held war inevi table ; his successors have adopted a policy of co-existence, however, the goal of both is world domination. Soviet diplo macy has sought to weaken the West…

The United Nations Program for Technical Assistance
T HE United Nations program for the economic development of technically backward countries is a natural outgrowth of the democratic process of free discussion within the U.N. system. Ever since the U.N. was created, the underdeveloped countries have been talking about it. They were bound to get it sooner or later. This does not mean that they failed to receive the support of the more advanced countries. It was, in fact, President Truman's inaugur…

The North Atlantic Treaty in the United States Senate
In joining the North Atlantic Treaty the United States made a momentous decision in its foreign policy. This article undertakes to analyze the rôle of the United States Senate in this historic step and to summarize the more important issues encountered
The United Nations and the Peace Treaties
I. The Introductory Course in Government
Introductory Comments. How and what to teach has been one of the most engaging topics of conversation in political science circles for many years. Yet it is a remarkable fact that not a single department of political science in the United States, so far as the writer is aware, offers its graduate students a seminar on teaching problems. Seemingly we have been content with the old formula for teaching success: "If you would be a good teacher, satu…
The United States Accepts Compulsory Jurisdiction
On August 2, 1946, the United States Senate approved the Morse resolution by the overwhelming vote of 62-2, thereby giving its advice and consent to the acceptance on the part of the United States of the compulsory jurisdiction of the International Court of Justice. It was the same Senate which, just one year and one week earlier, had cast a vote of 89-2 in favor of the United Nations Charter. On August 26 Herschel Johnson, acting United States r…
The First Meeting of the General Assembly of the United Nations
The First Part of the First General Assembly of the United Nations was in session in London from January 10 to February 14, 1946. Meeting intermittently during this period also were the Security Council and the Economic and Social Council. It is the purpose of this article to outline the general scope of the meeting and to indicate in broad terms the principal issues with which it was preoccupied. No attempt is made to summarize all of the Assemb…
The State Department Continues its Reorganization
In two recent articles in this Review , the writers examined in some detail the January 15, 1944, reorganization of the Department of State, and discussed the problem of organizing our national government for effective participation in world affairs. The purpose of the present article is to point out the main effects of the further reorganization of the Department announced on December 20, 1944, by Secretary Stettinius. At the outset, it should b…
II. The Yalta Voting Formula
Toward the close of the San Francisco Conference, Czechoslovakia's Jan Masaryk remarked that his feeling toward the new Charter "was much like that of the father fondly awaiting the birth of a son. The baby finally arrives and it turns out to be a girl. At first the father is somewhat disappointed, but he soon learns to like her just the same." While the delegates as a whole believed that their work would go down in history as one of the great do…

Back Door to War
The Reorganization of the Department of State
For many years there has been widespread discussion of the need for reorganizing the Department of State. Students, publicists, members of Congress, and members of the Department itself have repeatedly pointed out that the Department has not been geared up to performing the functions required of the foreign office of a great twentieth-century world power.The chief criticisms of the Department have been four: (1) that there was lacking a basic pat…
Teaching Political Science in a World at War
Writing in the October Atlantic Monthly, Paul P. Cram insists that "the task of our teachers at the present moment is one of the most terrible responsibilities in modern times." In less troubled eras, some of us would probably reply that teachers have little influence over college students, who are more interested in sex, football, and liquor than in democracy and war and peace. But Bismarck declared that the German history professor had more to …

The Monroe Doctrine and World War II
Only a decade or two ago, the Monroe Doctrine was in disfavor. The vitriolic pens of its critics denounced it as an "indisputable evidence of our overweening national conceit." They condemned it as an "obsolete shibboleth," "hoary with age"-a doctrine which the twentieth century would surely relegate to the dusty archives of diplomatic history. As late as 1937, no less a person than the chairman of the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations remark…
The Political Science Curriculum in War-Time
In these days of war, with democracy facing the greatest challenge in its history, it would be a sad mistake for anyone to assume an attitude of smug complacency. Such would be disastrous if not literally treasonable. Educators, therefore, along with labor and industry, business and agriculture, need to re-examine and revaluate their contribution to the common welfare of the community. Engaged in a war that threatens the very existence of freedom…
The Neutrality Fight in Congress
When Congress convened in January, 1939, the neutrality legislation of 1935, 1936, and 1937 had been weighed in the balance and found wanting. Ethiopia, Spain, and China had proved unsatisfactory testing grounds, and the President, in his annual message to Congress, hinted that certain changes would be designed (1) to enable the United States to act less favorably vis-à-vis aggressor nations, (2) by means of giving the executive more discretion i…
The League of Nations and the Spanish Civil War
Treaty-Making in Post-War Germany
One of the most significant developments of the 19th and early 20th centuries has been the rapid expansion of constitutional government and the resultant rôle of representative bodies in the important function of concluding international agreements. While treaty-making remained for many centuries largely in the hands of unchecked executives, the trend of the past 150 years–at least until the recent rise of dictatorships in Europe–has been toward …

The League of Nations and the Spanish Civil War
The Localization of the Spanish War
In July, 1936, none of the Great Powers wanted a European war. But, as in 1914, the preceding three or four years had brought in their wake a series of incidents and developments which increased tension considerably and made statesmen realize that a general war was far from impossible. The armaments race, the Italo-Abyssinian affair, the remilitarization of the Rhine zone, the Franco-Soviet alliance and the resulting denunciation of Locarno by Ge…

The Use of Atrocity Stories in War
Modern warfare is waged on at least four fronts through the coördinated efforts of military, economic, diplomatic, and progaganda weapons. Not the least of these is propaganda. Conscious as never before of the catastrophic effect of war upon humankind, the people of a nation must be convinced, before they can be called upon to make the supreme sacrifice, that they are fighting in the name of Truth and Right. It is desirable, therefore, to portray…

Government Pamphlets on the War
In a democracy, understanding is an essential ingredient of intelligent action. We the people cannot be expected to play our proper rôle in the drama unfolding before us today if we are not kept informed about the why and the how of the war. We ought to know our enemies, and their mad dream of world conquest. We ought to know our Allies and the sacrifices they are making to win a war which we could never have won without their help. We ought to k…
I. Organizing the Government for Participation in World Affairs
Looking at the post-war period, it seems obvious that the government of the United States will give more attention to foreign affairs than it has in any comparable period of American history. How can the machinery for conducting foreign relations best be organized to meet these increasing responsibilities? The conduct of foreign relations in the modern world is no simple matter. Technical experts, intelligence systems, ability to negotiate, natio…
