Paperback. Condition: New. At the height of the Cold War, the U.S. government enlisted the aid of a select group of psychologists, sociologists, and political scientists to blueprint enemy behavior. Not only did these academics bring sophisticated concepts to what became a project of demonizing communist societies, but they infl…uenced decision-making in the map rooms, prison camps, and battlefields of the Korean War and in Vietnam. With verve and insight, Ron Robin tells the intriguing story of the rise of behavioral scientists in government and how their potentially dangerous, "American" assumptions about human behavior would shape U.S. views of domestic disturbances and insurgencies in Third World countries for decades to come. Based at government-funded think tanks, the experts devised provocative solutions for key Cold War dilemmas, including psychological warfare projects, negotiation strategies during the Korean armistice, and morale studies in the Vietnam era. Robin examines factors that shaped the scientists' thinking and explores their psycho-cultural and rational choice explanations for enemy behavior.He reveals how the academics' intolerance for complexity ultimately reduced the nation's adversaries to borderline psychotics, ignored revolutionary social shifts in post-World War II Asia, and promoted the notion of a maniacal threat facing the United States. Putting the issue of scientific validity aside, Robin presents the first extensive analysis of the intellectual underpinnings of Cold War behavioral sciences in a book that will be indispensable reading for anyone interested in the era and its legacy.

Cloth with dj. Condition: Sehr gut. 217 Seiten Sehr guter Zustand / very good condition. Widmung d. Autors für Joschka Fischer. From Stalag 17 to The Mancburian Candi-date, the American media have long been fascinated with stories of American prisoners of war. But few Americans are aware that enemy prisoners of war were incarcer…ated on our own soil during World War II. In The Barbed-Wire College Ron Robin teils the extraordinary story of the 380.000 German prisoners who filled camps from Rhode Island to Wisconsin, Missouri to New Jersey. Using personal narratives, camp newspapers, and military records, Robin re-creates in arresting detail the attempts of prison officials to mold the daily lives and minds of their captives. From 1943 onward, and in spite of the Geneva Convention, prisoners were sub-jected to an ambitious reeducation program designed to turn them into American-style democrats. Under the direction of the Pentagon, liberal arts professors entered over five hundred camps nationwide. Deaf to the advice of their Professional rivals, the behavioral scientists, these instructors pushed through a program of arts and humanities that stressed only the positive aspects of American society. Aided by German POW collaborators, American educators censored populär books and films in order to promote democratic humanism and downplay dass and race issues, materialism, and wartime heroics. Red-baiting pentagon officials added their contribution to the program, as well; by the wars end, the curriculum was more concerned with combating the appeals of communism than with eradicating the evils of National Socialism. But the reeducation officials neglected to account for one factor: an entrenched * German military subculture in the camps, complete with a rigid chain of command and a propensity for murdering traitors. The result of their neglect was utter failure for the reeducation program. By telling the story of the programs rocky existence, however, Ron Robin shows how this in-triguing chapter of military history was tied to two crucial episodes of twentieth-century American history: the battle over the future of American education and the McCarthy-era hysterics that awaited post- war America.
