It is therefore the great power that decides whether to escalate a conflict into a crisis by adopting a coercive strategy. In practice, however, the coercive strategies of the U.S. have frequently failed. In Coercion, Survival and War Phil Haun chronicles 30 asymmetric interstate crises involving the US from 1918 to 2003. The U.S. chose coercive strategies in 23 of these cases, but coercion failed half of the time: most often because the more powerful U.S. made demands that threatened the very survival of the weak state, causing it to resist as long as it had the means to do so. It is an unfortunate paradox Haun notes that, where the U.S. may prefer brute force to coercion, these power asymmetries may well lead it to first attempt coercive strategies that are expected to fail in order to justify the war it desires. He concludes that, when coercion is preferred to brute force there are clear limits as to what can be demanded. In such cases, he suggests, U.S. policymakers can improve the chances of success by matching appropriate threats to demands, by including other great powers in the coercive process, and by reducing a weak state leader's reputational costs by giving him or her face-saving options. 410 0$aStanford security studies. 606 $aAsymmetric warfare$zUnited States$vCase studies 606 $aAsymmetric warfare$vCase studies 607 $aUnited States$xMilitary policy$vCase studies 607 $aUnited States$xForeign relations$vCase studies 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAsymmetric warfare 615 0$aAsymmetric warfare 676 $a355.4/2 700 $aHaun$b Phil M.$01056873 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910460435003321 996 $aCoercion, survival, and war$92491556 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01528nam 2200373 n 450 001 996391572903316 005 20200824121837.0 035 $a(CKB)4940000000104514 035 $a(EEBO)2248538724 035 $a(UnM)99851320e 035 $a(UnM)99851320 035 $a(EXLCZ)994940000000104514 100 $a19920330d1628 uy | 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurbn||||a|bb| 200 00$aNevves from Aleppo$b[electronic resource] $eA letter written to T.V.
