Abstract

This chapter draws on the five chapters that follow—each of which describes the war powers in a single country—to identify and analyze some of the techniques for regulating this area of foreign affairs and then to reflect on the value of comparative research on it. Three basic techniques are: (1) to establish substantive standards on when the government may or may not use force, (2) to divide among different branches of government the authority to deploy the country’s armed forces, and (3) to subject such decisions to oversight or review. There is considerable variation, both across countries and over time within particular countries, in how and with what effect each technique is used. Given that variation, comparative war powers research might be of limited relevance to national officials who make use of force decisions or to analysts who seek to explain them. Rather, the principal benefit of such research might be to bring into stark relief each country’s own national ethos—to shed light on how it defines itself and conceives of its relationship with the rest of the world
军事力量调节技术
本章借鉴了接下来的五章——每一章都描述了一个国家的战争权力——来识别和分析一些管理这一外交事务领域的技巧,然后反思比较研究的价值。三种基本技术是:(1)建立政府何时可以或不可以使用武力的实质性标准,(2)在不同的政府部门之间划分部署国家武装部队的权力,以及(3)将此类决定置于监督或审查之下。在不同国家之间以及特定国家内部,每种技术的使用方式和效果都存在相当大的差异。鉴于这种差异,比较战争力量的研究可能对使用武力决策的国家官员或试图解释这些决策的分析人士意义有限。相反,这种研究的主要好处可能是使每个国家自己的民族精神变得清晰起来,从而阐明它如何定义自己,以及如何设想它与世界其他地区的关系
