Frontmatter -- Contents -- Illustrations -- Abbreviations -- Acknowledgments -- INTRODUCTION: Rumors of an Enemy -- PART ONE: DEFINING THE PARADIGM -- PART TWO: NORMAL SCIENCE -- PART THREE: CRISIS -- Notes -- IndexAt the height of the Cold War, the U.S. government enlisted the aid of a select group of psychologists, sociologists, and political scientists to blueprint enemy behavior. Not only did these academics bring sophisticated concepts to what became a project of demonizing communist societies, but they influenced decision-making in the map rooms, prison camps, and battlefields of the Korean War and in Vietnam. With verve and insight, Ron Robin tells the intriguing story of the rise of behavioral scientists in government and how their potentially dangerous, "American" assumptions about human behavior would shape U.S. views of domestic disturbances and insurgencies in Third World countries for decades to come. Based at government-funded think tanks, the experts devised provocative solutions for key Cold War dilemmas, including psychological warfare projects, negotiation strategies during the Korean armistice, and morale studies in the Vietnam era. Robin examines factors that shaped the scientists' thinking and explores their psycho-cultural and rational choice explanations for enemy behavior. He reveals how the academics' intolerance for complexity ultimately reduced the nation's adversaries to borderline psychotics, ignored revolutionary social shifts in post-World War II Asia, and promoted the notion of a maniacal threat facing the United States. Putting the issue of scientific validity aside, Robin presents the first extensive analysis of the intellectual underpinnings of Cold War behavioral sciences in a book that will be indispensable reading for anyone interested in the era and its legacy.Cold WarSocial aspectsUnited StatesResearch institutesUnited StatesHistory20th centuryIntellectualsUnited StatesPolitical activityHistory20th centuryUnited StatesForeign relations1945-1989United StatesIntellectual life20th centuryUnited StatesForeign relationsAsiaAsiaForeign relationsUnited StatesAftermath of World War II.Aggression.Anti-Americanism.Anti-capitalism.Anti-communism.Anti-individualism.Anti-intellectualism.Antipathy.Aphorism.Armistice.Authoritarianism.Behavioralism.Behavioural sciences.Bernard Brodie (military strategist).Carpet bombing.Clash of Civilizations.Cold War.Communism.Communist International.Communist propaganda.Conventional warfare.Counter-insurgency.Counter-revolutionary.Counter-terrorism.Creation myth.Criticism.Culture war.Decolonization.Defection.Demoralization (warfare).Deterrence theory.Disarmament.Disenchantment.Distrust.Espionage.Explanation.Foreign policy.Global catastrophic risk.Ideology.Incest.Indoctrination.Insurgency.Isolationism.Korean War.Korean conflict.Loss of China.Militarism.Militarization.Mind control.Modernization theory.Narcissism.National security.Nazi Germany.Nazism.North Korean defectors.Nuclear strategy.Nuclear warfare.On Aggression.On Thermonuclear War.Oppression.Persecution.Political apathy.Political censorship.Political commissar.Political science.Politics.Prisoner of war.Propaganda.Proxy war.Psychoanalysis.Psychological warfare.RAND Corporation.Racism.Radicalization.Reprisal.Result.Science.Scientism.Separatism.Social science.Society of the United States.Sociology.Sovietization.Strategic bombing.Subversion.The Authoritarian Personality.The Wehrmacht (documentary).Total war.Totalitarianism.Un-American.Viet Cong.War economy.War effort.War of ideas.War.Warfare.Wars of national liberation.Weapon of mass destruction.World War II.World communism.Cold WarSocial aspectsResearch institutesHistoryIntellectualsPolitical activityHistory973.92/01/9Robin Ron Theodore1464695MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910778215603321The making of the Cold War enemy3861417UNINA
