Brian Rathbun suggests, however, that if we understand rationality to be a cognitive style premised on a commitment to objectivity and active deliberation, rational leaders are, in fact, the exception - not the norm. Using a unique combination of methods, including laboratory bargaining experiments, archival-based case studies, quantitative textual analysis, and high-level interviews, Rathbun questions some of our basic assumptions about rationality and leadership, with profound implications for the field of international relations. Case studies of Bismarck and Richelieu show that the rationality of realists makes them rare. An examination of Churchill and Reagan, romantics in international politics who sought to overcome obstacles in their path through force of will and personal agency, show what less rationality looks like in foreign policy making"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 310-330) and index. 505 00 $g Conclusion. $t The irrationality of rational choice theory : saving a paradigm from itself. $t The psychology of rationality : cognitive style in international relations -- $t The three "R"s of international relations : realism, romanticism and rationality -- $t Little Bismarcks : a laboratory experiment on variation in rational thinking and rational behavior (with Joshua Kertzer) -- $t The "Prince" among men : Bismarck£s realpolitik in Prussian politics -- $t Cold blood and iron : Bismarck, the struggle with Austria and German unification -- $t Blind faith : Richelieu, the devoted, and France in counter-reformation Europe -- $t "Blood, toil, tears and sweat" : Churchill, romanticism and the rational appeasement debate -- $t "In defeat, defiance" : Churchill in words (1935-1939) and in deeds (1940) (with Therese Anders) -- $t "Beginning the world all over again" : resolving the paradox of Ronald Reagan -- $t Winning one as the Gipper? : Reagan£s administration and American engagement with the Soviet Union -- $g Conclusion. $t The irrationality of rational choice theory : saving a paradigm from itself. 540 $a Current Copyright Fee: GBP10.00 $c 0. $5 Uk 600 10 $a Richelieu, Armand Jean du Plessis, $c duc de, $d 1585-1642. 600 10 $a Bismarck, Otto, $c FuÂrst von, $d 1815-1898. 600 10 $a Churchill, Winston, $d 1874-1965. 600 10 $a Reagan, Ronald. 600 17 $a Bismarck, Otto, $c FuÂrst von, $d 1815-1898. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00031284 600 17 $a Churchill, Winston, $d 1874-1965. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01716876 600 17 $a Reagan, Ronald. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00036392 600 17 $a Richelieu, Armand Jean du Plessis, $c duc de, $d 1585-1642. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00019302 600 17 $a Bismarck, Otto von $d 1815-1898 $2 gnd 600 17 $a Churchill, Winston $d 1874-1965 $2 gnd 600 17 $a Reagan, Ronald $d 1911-2004 $2 gnd 600 17 $a Richelieu, Armand Jean du Plessis de $d 1585-1642 $2 gnd 600 17 $a Richelieu, Armand Jean du Plessis, $c duc de, $d 1585-1642. $2 nli 600 17 $a Bismarck, Otto, $c FuÂrst von, $d 1815-1898. $2 nli 600 17 $a Churchill, Winston, $d 1874-1965. $2 nli 600 17 $a Reagan, Ronald. $2 nli 650 0 $a Political realism. 650 0 $a International relations $x Decision making. 651 0 $a France $x Foreign relations $y 1610-1643. 651 0 $a Prussia (Germany) $x Foreign relations $y 1815-1870. 651 0 $a Great Britain $x Foreign relations $y 1936-1945. 651 0 $a United States $x Foreign relations $y 1981-1989. 650 7 $a Diplomatic relations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01907412 650 7 $a International relations $x Decision making. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00977062 650 7 $a Political realism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01895005 651 7 $a Germany $z Prussia. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01225278 651 7 $a France. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204289 651 7 $a Great Britain. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204623 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 650 7 $a Au©enpolitik $2 gnd 650 7 $a Internationale Politik $2 gnd 650 7 $a Politische FuÂhrung $2 gnd 650 7 $a Politischer Realismus $2 gnd 650 7 $a Rational Choice $2 gnd 650 7 $a Rationalprinzip $2 gnd 650 7 $a Political realism. $2 nli 650 7 $a International relations $x Decision making. $2 nli 651 7 $a France $x Foreign relations $y 1610-1643. $2 nli 651 7 $a Prussia (Germany) $x Foreign relations $y 1815-1870. $2 nli 651 7 $a Great Britain $x Foreign relations $y 1936-1945. $2 nli 651 7 $a United States $x Foreign relations $y 1981-1989. $2 nli 648 7 $a 1610-1989 $2 fast 776 08 $i Online version: $a Rathbun, Brian C., 1973- $t Reasoning of state. $d Cambridge : Cambridge University Press, 2019 $z 9781108612937 $w (OCoLC)1089758219 830 0 $a Cambridge studies in international relations ; $v 149. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231019023247.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0E920F5871B711EB8A4F4B2E3BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
