Abstract

What differentiates progressive grand strategies from other variants of US grand strategy? Van Jackson’s “Left of Liberal Internationalism: Grand Strategies within Progressive Foreign Policy Thought” argues that progressives reject the idea that security is limited to questions about the use of military force. Jackson begins instead with a broader concept of security rooted in “peace, democracy, and equality.” 1 Following from these commitments, he proposes three progressive grand strategies. First, progressive pragmatism prioritizes economic equality, seeking to mitigate threats posed by corrupt autocrats. Second, antihegemonism attempts to rein in American military power and imperialism. Third, peacemaking aims to respond to structural causes of violence and advocates for wide-spread disarmament.

在理论和实践中寻求进步外交政策

进步的大战略与美国大战略的其他变体有何不同？范·杰克逊的《自由国际主义左派：进步外交政策思想中的大战略》认为，进步派拒绝接受安全仅限于使用武力问题的观点。相反，杰克逊从植根于“和平、民主和平等”的更广泛的安全概念开始。1根据这些承诺，他提出了三个进步的大战略。首先，进步实用主义优先考虑经济平等，寻求减轻腐败独裁者带来的威胁。第二，反正统主义试图控制美国的军事力量和帝国主义。第三，建立和平的目的是对暴力的结构性原因作出回应，并倡导广泛裁军。

期刊介绍： Security Studies publishes innovative scholarly manuscripts that make a significant contribution – whether theoretical, empirical, or both – to our understanding of international security. Studies that do not emphasize the causes and consequences of war or the sources and conditions of peace fall outside the journal’s domain. Security Studies features articles that develop, test, and debate theories of international security – that is, articles that address an important research question, display innovation in research, contribute in a novel way to a body of knowledge, and (as appropriate) demonstrate theoretical development with state-of-the art use of appropriate methodological tools. While we encourage authors to discuss the policy implications of their work, articles that are primarily policy-oriented do not fit the journal’s mission. The journal publishes articles that challenge the conventional wisdom in the area of international security studies. Security Studies includes a wide range of topics ranging from nuclear proliferation and deterrence, civil-military relations, strategic culture, ethnic conflicts and their resolution, epidemics and national security, democracy and foreign-policy decision making, developments in qualitative and multi-method research, and the future of security studies.
