BOOKS
A Teutonic Shift: Explaining Germany's new Foreign Policy (forthcoming)
The book aims to fill the conceptual gap between international relations theory and foreign policy analysis, using Germany as a case study in which to explore the changing sources of a rising power's policy preferences. Using matched and contrasting cases, it tests the utility of domestic, neo-liberal institutionalist, realist, and constructivist accounts of foreign policy preference formation in three issue areas: diplomacy, foreign economic policy, and security. The book argues that Germany’s foreign policy is shaped primarily by Germany’s power position on the international stage and by the state of its economy. Both have changed rather dramatically in the years since the wall fell, and the world has seen several dramatic “shifts” in Germany’s foreign policy. The more robust the economy, the more Germany’s power has been used to underwrite cooperation in Europe and in international relations. But continued economic stagnation leads Germany’s leaders to shift away from that role and assert self-interest more blatantly, even to the point of defecting from international cooperation. Domestic politics, political culture, leadership, international institutions all contribute to German foreign policy behavior, but the principle factors at work are power and the state of the economy.

Economic Vulnerability in International Relations, (New York: Columbia University Press, 1993) This Book is an evaluation and explanation of American foreign policy on export controls. It assesses the sources of policy preference within the United States and how the United States achieved (or did not achieve) export control cooperation within CoCom. It evaluates policy preferences and decisions on the basis of evidence for policy choice and assesses the political and symbolic aspects of policy choice. It argues that during the Cold War, U.S. export control policy was not based on sound evidence concerning the “threat” of East-West trade, but rather on political and symbolic considerations.
