In Coercion, Cooperation, and Ethics in International Relations, Richard Ned Lebow, one of the leading scholars of international relations, political psychology, and foreign policy, presents his substantive and compelling critique of deterrence and compellence strategies, illustrating empirically and normatively how they often produce results counter to those intended. This collection offers a useful framework for thinking about America's role in the current world and the most efficient ways of translating American power into influence. A substantive overview of Lebow's views on ethics and foreign policy and the future of international relations theory, this book represents a major statement by a pre-eminent thinker.
