Knitting the Velvet Gauntlet: Goldwater-Nichols, the end of the Cold War, and the development of American defense diplomacy

Greanias, George Christopher 04 May 2023 (has links)
The United States military is more than a tool of hard power. It provides the United States with a suite of diplomatic tools and is itself an important producer of American soft power. Though the many repertoires of American defense diplomacy have been carefully studied and the overall phenomenon has been theoretically investigated, their origins have not received similar attention. This research aims to uncover the causes of American defense diplomacy through an account of the American military's institutional development. It is common for defense diplomacy to be presented either as an outgrowth of 9/11 when the United States was engaged in globe-spanning irregular warfare or as part of a drive for global hegemony after the collapse of the Soviet Union. However, this research finds otherwise. A key factor in the development of contemporary defense diplomacy was the suite of institutional changes in the American national security apparatus in the 1980s. In particular, the Goldwater-Nichols Defense Reorganization Act of 1986 reconfigured the power relationships and interests of key elements of the US military thereby overdetermining the development of defense diplomacy. With this finding, this research centers Congress as a key driver of American foreign policy and highlights the sub-state institutional dynamics within the foreign policy apparatus that produced, and reproduce, defense diplomacy as an enduring habit of American statecraft. / Doctor of Philosophy / Using a broad array of archival documents, interviews, and other sources, this research investigated the (unintended) consequences of the Goldwater-Nichols Defense Reorganization Act of 1986. Those reforms reconfigured the power relationships, incentives, and preferences of the US foreign policy apparatus which in turn yielded new habits of American statecraft. Foremost among these new habits was "defense diplomacy" which, beginning in the late 1980s, became a common, enduring, and popular American foreign policy repertoire. This dissertation focuses on Goldwater-Nichols, the emergence of defense diplomacy, and its institutionalization. This project places special emphasis on the US military's central and eastern European state-building and democratization efforts during the twilight of the Cold War and the dawn of the New World Order. This is a historical institutionalist account contributing to the literature on both the "militarization" of foreign policy as well as the "civilianization" of the military.

VIABLE INSTITUTIONS, JUDICIAL POWER, AND POST-COMMUNIST CONSTITUTIONAL COURTS

Bumin, Kirill Mikhaylovich 01 January 2009 (has links)
In pursuing their goals, newly-created constitutional courts of Eastern Europe and the former Soviet republics are affected by their institutional setting and capabilities. Yet, previous studies did not explore how constitutional courts develop over time and what noteworthy implications for politics and society result from their institutional growth. To address this gap in the literature, I measured a variety of organizational characteristics and constructed an index of institutional development for the twenty eight constitutional courts in the post-communist countries from the initial year of their transitions through 2005. I argued that high values on this measure (which I labeled the judicial viability score) should enable constitutional court judges to satisfy their policy objectives and improve public and elite perceptions of the judiciary’s role in new democratic systems. To demonstrate this empirically, I tested a series of statistical models of judicial influence to show that the level of court’s institutional viability has profound implications on its legal, political, and social impact. My analyses indicated that the level of the constitutional court’s institutional viability is, indeed, an important determinant of the constitutional court judges’ ability to actively shape public policies and render decisions which are independent of, and in opposition to, the preferences of dominant political actors and government institutions. Additionally, the results demonstrated that the level of constitutional court’s viability significantly affects the perceptions of the ordinary citizens and business elites—ordinary citizens and business owners and managers are more likely to express confidence in the national legal system in countries with relatively institutionalized constitutional courts than citizens living in countries with weakly institutionalized constitutional courts. Thus, my research highlights the importance of studying the evolutionary process by which courts acquire institutional viability and, in doing so, contributes to our understanding of the factors shaping the development of democracy, the rule of law, and constitutionalism in the post-communist societies.

A evolução de instituições orçamentárias no Brasil, 1987-2008 / The evolution of budgeting institutions in Brazil, 1987-2008

Praça, Sergio Rodrigo Marchiori 30 April 2010 (has links)
O principal argumento deste trabalho é que a interação entre interesses, idéias e enquadramentos discursivos (frames) permite explicar como e por que certas instituições orçamentárias brasileiras foram escolhidas, desde 1987, em vez de outras. Defendo que os interesses dos parlamentares a respeito das instituições orçamentárias é definido, em grande parte, por como essas instituições funcionam na prática. Mostro que a estratégia de execução orçamentária utilizada pelo Executivo Brasileiro no período pós-1988 é fundamental para explicar por que parlamentares da coalizão devem, em tese, defender limites ao emendamento, a organização centralizada da Comissão Mista de Orçamento e o Orçamento Autorizativo. Os parlamentares da oposição, por sua vez, devem defender emendamento ilimitado, a descentralização da comissão orçamentária e o Orçamento Impositivo. Três critical junctures foram fundamentais para definir as instituições orçamentárias brasileiras no recente período democrático: a Assembléia Constituinte de 1987-1988, o período pós-CPI de 1994-1995 e a época de 2005-2006. Ao inserir as escolhas de instituições orçamentárias na lógica do processo constituinte, entende-se por que certas instituições da ditadura militar foram mantidas (por exemplo, a Comissão Mista de Orçamento) e outras foram ressuscitadas, parcialmente, do regime democrático de 1946-1964 (por exemplo, a prerrogativa de parlamentares emendarem o orçamento). Em seguida, o trabalho aborda as escolhas pós-constituintes, avaliando como escândalos de corrupção e as critical junctures derivadas parcialmente deles ajudaram a alterar diversos aspectos do emendamento orçamentário no Brasil. Mostro também como o entrepreneur de oposição Ricardo Barros conseguiu, em 2006, ser extremamente bem-sucedido na descentralização de aspectos da Comissão Mista de Orçamento. A estabilidade do Orçamento Autorizativo no Brasil é analisado em seguida e pode ser visto como um caso complementar aos demais, pois trata de uma quase mudança institucional. Os enquadramentos discursivos utilizados pelo entrepreneur Antônio Carlos Magalhães, principal defensor do fim do Orçamento Autorizativo, revelam quais interesses legislativos estiveram presentes na decisão de manter essa instituição. / How does the interaction between interests, ideas and frames help explain institutional development? This dissertation takes the evolution of budgeting institutions in Brazil since 1987 as a case study to answer this question. I argue that congressmens interests regarding budgeting institutions is mainly defined by how these institutions actually work. I show that the presidential strategy of executing amendments explains why coalition congressmen normally defend limited amendment power, a centralized budget process and the Authoritative Budget. The inverse goes for opposition congressment. Three critical junctures were very important in the definition of budgeting institutions in the recent democratic period: the National Constituent Assembly in 1987-1988, and two short periods during the unveiling of budgeting corruption scandals in 1994-1995 and 2005-2006. I show how the centralized budget process was kept in the 1988 Constitution and was used by the coalition up to 2006, when an opposition entrepreneur was successful in decentralizing part of the process. Congressmens prerogatives for amending the budget were enlarged in the 1988 Constitution, but somewhat toned down due to the influence of corruption scandals in shaping the institutional development agenda. Finally, I tackle the problem of how institutions remain stable in processes of reproduction that are not path dependent. I do so by analyzing Brazils main budgeting institution the Authoritative Budget as a case study to consider how control of the legislative agenda by the Executive can be considered a power mechanism through which institutions are endogenously maintained. It also illuminates the limitations of entrepreneurs who almost single-handedly attempt to change institutional arrangements. In this case, the entrepreneur, Antonio Carlos Magalhães, obtained relative success but ultimately failed.

Reconceitualizando o Institucionalismo Histórico: path dependence, agencia e mudança institucional / Reconceptualizing the Historical Institutionalism: path dependence, agency and institutional change

Cesaris, Luis Enrique Urtubey de 09 October 2009 (has links)
O núcleo desta dissertação é desenvolver um conceito de path dependence mais parcimonioso, coerente e útil, seja teoricamente ou em estudos empíricos. Neste sentido, o insight fundamental é que se partimos de uma conceitualização mais dinâmica, baseada mais em externalidades negativas do que em rendimentos crescentes, o conceito de path dependence pode ser inerentemente mais operacionalizável, robusto e ressoar melhor com a literatura e os estudos Institucionalistas Históricos. O conceito de path dependence pode também ser mais compatível com várias elaborações realizadas dentro do próprio Institucionalismo Histórico sobre questões como mudança institucional, mecanismos explicativos, complementaridade, idéias e agência, e, portanto, enriquecer-se graças aos mesmos. / The objective of this dissertation is to develop a more parsimonious, coherent and useful concept of path dependence, both theoretically and empirically. Its fundamental insight is that with a more dynamic conceptualization, based more in negative externalities than in increasing returns, the concept of path dependence can be inherently more robust and resonate better with the literature and Historical Institutionalist studies. The concept of path dependence can also be more compatible with several theoretical developments which have arisen within Historical Institutionalism regarding questions such as institutional change, social mechanisms, complementarities, ideas, agency and, therefore, to be enriched by them.

A preocupação com resultados relativos ao SINAES (Sistema Nacional Avaliação da Educação Superior) desenvolvidos pelo Ministério da Educação é um dos pontos importantes deste processo. Uma das obrigações contidas no SINAES é o estabelecimento da CPA (Comissão Própria de Avaliação), a qual tem a finalidade de conduzir as avaliações internas em uma IES. As autoavaliações têm papel fundamental no desenvolvimento e melhorias nas instituições e desta forma, merecem destaque se usadas de forma efetiva como insumos para o planejamento da organização. Desta forma, o presente estudo tem a finalidade de identificar como ocorre a articulação entre os resultados das autoavaliações e os processos de planejamento em IES. Para tanto, foram realizadas entrevistas com gestores e coordenadores responsáveis pela CPA e de Planejamento Estratégico ou PDI – Plano de Desenvolvimento Institucional, todos de instituições de Ensino Superior, sendo privadas e públicas no Estado do Rio Grande do Sul. As declarações dos entrevistados demostraram que todos estão conscientes da importância em existir articulação entre a autoavaliação e os processos de planejamento estratégico, contudo, não há relatos de uma metodologia, em nenhuma instituição, que determine um padrão de aplicação destas atividades sincronizadas, ou seja, a articulação é feita conforme a necessidade, por meio da entrega de relatórios para a reitoria e aos coordenadores. / A consistent management to provide quality and sustainability in higher education institutions is what has caused debate in the educational segment. The concern with results for the SINAES (National Higher Education Assessment System) developed by the Ministry of Education is one of the important points of this process. One of the obligations contained in SINAES is the establishment of the CPA (Committee for assessment), which aims to conduct internal evaluations in an IES. The self-assessments, under the responsibility of the CPA, play a fundamental role in the development and improvements in institutions and thus deserve attention if used effectively as inputs to the planning of the organization. Thus, this study aims to identify how is the relationship between the results of self-assessments and planning processes in IES. Several interviews were conducted with managers and coordinators responsible for CPA and Strategic Planning or PDI - Institutional Development Plan, all higher education institutions, and private and public in the State of Rio Grande do Sul. The statements of the respondents showed that everyone is aware of the importance of coordination exists between self-assessment and strategic planning processes, however, there are no reports of a methodology, in any institution, to determine a pattern of synchronized application of these activities, the joint is made as needed, through the delivery of reports to the rectory and coordinators.

The Swedish Prison and Probation Service assistance of prison development : Focus on Somalia / The Swedish Prison and Probation Service assistance of prison development : Focus on Somalia

Petersson, Lina January 2019 (has links)
Despite the Swedish Prison and Probation Service (SPPS) are a pioneer on the global arena regarding the area of corrections, generally little is known of what they do in Sweden as well as internationally. This study will explore the SPPS implementation of prison development in Somalia, which will be done through interviews with seconded personnel and others within the Swedish government that have connections to the prison development in Somalia. The findings were able to answer the research questions for this thesis, namely what the SPPS are doing internationally, what they are doing in Somalia and lastly if they have seen any results in Somalia. In the analysis, the middle power theory was used through an abductive approach to see if the SPPS fulfilled the criterions for the theory namely moral power, multilateralism and conflict management. It is concluded that the SPPS work in Somalia have been effective. They have contributed considerably to the local development and the seconded personnel has also learnt lessons for life which they can use also in their further carriers. Through their contacts, which they have established, they might also contribute further bilaterally even in the event of a withdrawal from the United Nations.

Os recursos humanos dentro do Plano de Desenvolvimento Institucional da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul : um estudo de caso do cargo de assistente em administração

Franz, Doris Andréa Mesquita Borges January 2016 (has links)
Este estudo visa trazer à tona uma questão que está ligada ao próprio Plano de Desenvolvimento Institucional, ou seja, a redução dos cargos de recursos humanos, mais especificamente, o cargo de assistente em administração e sua influência direta no êxito na implementação e acompanhamento do Plano de Desenvolvimento Institucional. O objetivo geral do trabalho será de fazer uma análise comparativa do cargo de assistente em administração existente atualmente na Escola de Engenharia, projetando este resultado para o resto da Universidade. Sabemos que atualmente, as transformações e incertezas típicas deste século, são responsáveis pelas tendências que estruturam o Estado e a sociedade. Uma sociedade dinâmica, diferenciada e às voltas com inúmeras dificuldades, exige uma melhor Gestão dos Recursos Humanos. A importância da Gestão de Recursos Humanos deve ser compatível com as exigências do mundo atual e deve ir muito além dos aspectos técnicos e legais. Precisa ser pensada em termos políticos e ter em seu centro uma bem concebida e uma bem executada política de formação, capaz não só de treinar funcionários, mas de impulsionar a mudança da postura e da mentalidade do servidor público. A questão dos recursos humanos no setor público brasileiro tem sido frequente nas discussões que se travam já há alguns anos, sobre os rumos do Estado e da Administração Pública no Brasil. Perante a opinião pública, o foco principal tem recaído quase sempre sobre o despreparo técnico e o reduzido profissionalismo dos servidores. Agora, neste momento em que o país atravessa uma série de incertezas, este trabalho tenta mostrar o “real” sucateamento do funcionalismo público mais precisamente em relação ao cargo de assistente em administração e a sua realidade junto ao Plano de Desenvolvimento Institucional da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul. Este trabalho se justifica pelo fato de poder evidenciar que, apesar dos dados não serem registrados, a redução comprovada do cargo de assistente em administração poderá afetar diretamente os resultados do PDI. Este comprometimento poderá ser tanto na coleta e digitalização dos dados ou na realização e conclusão do mesmo. O PDI desta Instituição passa diretamente ou indiretamente pelos assistentes em administração, cargo que está em vias de extinção e que até o presente momento desempenhou o seu comprometimento com esta Universidade. / This study aims to bring to light an important issue concerning to human resources; that is mainly linked to the Plan of Institutional Development (PDI) at UFRGS. The main point is the reduction of human resources positions. The present research discusses the administrative assistant job in relation to its direct impact on the establishment and support success of the plan. Also, the focus, in general, lies in a comparative analysis of the administrative assistant position at Engineering School. Besides, the results should be including all the University. Nowadays, uncertainties in a changing world are responsible for the trends that shape the Government and population’s decisions. A dynamic, different and troubled society demands a better human resource management. The human resource management relevance should be in line with the demands in our present day world. Besides, it should go beyond technical and legal terms. The human resource management needs to be conceived in terms of a political idea. Also, its focus should be a well-designed and a well-executed training policy which should be able not only to shape the employees, but also stimulate government employee’s behaviour and mind changes. The subject of human resource in Brazilian public sector is always a common discussion topic, as well as the public management and State situation. In public opinion, the main problem has to do with technical lack of qualification and a narrow performance of government employees. Now, Brazil is going through a deep crisis, so this paper explores the “real” public sector scrapping situation, concerning to the administrative assistant position in relation to the Plan of Institutional Development of UFRGS. This work is fully justified by an undoubted decrease in the number of administrative assistant job. However the data are not recorded, this reduction can directly affect the PDI results, because some mistakes will probably occur not only in the gathering and digitization of data, but also misguided conclusions. The Plan of Institutional Development of UFRGS passes through administrative assistant’s hands in a direct or indirect manner. Although administrative assistant has been worked in a successful way, including labor engagement with UFRGS purposes, this position is being endangered.

Nas Instituições de Ensino Superior (IES), o Plano de Desenvolvimento Institucional (PDI) tem-se consolidado como instrumento de planejamento estratégico, porém, muitas vezes, representa apenas o cumprimento de uma formalidade institucional, sem maiores preocupações com os benefícios que pode proporcionar, quando adotado como instrumento de gestão. Neste contexto, o presente trabalho concentra-se em analisar o planejamento estratégico no âmbito das Instituições de Ensino Superior, buscando identificar elementos críticos para sua integração com as ações realizadas. Por meio de estudo de caso, observou-se a influência dos elementos críticos para a integração entre o planejamento estratégico institucional do IFPE, e as ações realizadas no âmbito do Campus Afogados da Ingazeira. Para a compreensão do fenômeno no âmbito das IES, recorreu-se à pesquisa bibliográfica como ferramenta útil para explorar o conhecimento científico existente acerca do tema e analisar quais elementos são considerados relevantes no processo de implementação do plano. Quando se abordou a esfera institucional do IFPE, utilizou-se das pesquisas documental e de campo, por meio da análise do PDI, do Plano de Ação do Campus Afogados da Ingazeira e da aplicação de entrevistas semiestruturadas, para assimilar a relação das ações do dia a dia com os instrumentos de planejamento. Após a análise dos elementos críticos e sua relação com a integração das ações do Campus Afogados da Ingazeira ao planejamento estratégico da Instituição, os principais resultados da pesquisa apontam que o planejamento estratégico ainda não é efetivamente utilizado como instrumento de gestão de maneira sistemática. Os responsáveis pela execução das ações que atingiriam os objetivos nele determinados não percebem a presença do planejamento como um legítimo norteador das ações cotidianas. A proposta de ação, para iniciar o ciclo de aperfeiçoamento contínuo de integração entre o planejamento estratégico e as ações regulares, concentra-se em torno do envolvimento da gestão ao adotar o planejamento estratégico como instrumento de gestão; designação de líderes para facilitar o processo de elaboração, acompanhamento e avaliação do plano com a articulação de Reitoria e Campi, e promoção do planejamento participativo. As demais soluções surgiriam em consequência destas ações, à medida que o processo fosse sendo aperfeiçoado pelos novos ciclos de aprendizagem, promovidos pelo seu acompanhamento e revisão. / Strategic planning is being adopted by public institutions in a very successful way. In Higher Education Institutions (IES), the Institutional Development Plan (PDI) has been consolidated as a strategic planning tool, however, often it is worked out just for the fulfillment of an institutional formality, with no major concerns with the benefits it can provide when adopted as a management tool. In this context, this paper focuses on analyzing the strategic planning in the context of Higher Education Institutions to identify critical elements for its integration with the actions which are taken. Through case study, it was observed the influence of the critical elements for the integration between the IFPE's Institutional Strategic Planning, and the actions carried out under the Campus Afogados da Ingazeira. To understand the phenomenon within the IES, it was used the literature as a useful tool to explore the existing scientific knowledge on the subject and to analyze which elements are considered relevant in terms of the implementation process. When it approached the institutional sphere of IFPE, we used the documentary and field research, by analyzing the PDI, the Campus Afogados da Ingazeira's Action Plan and application of semi-structured interviews to assimilate the ratio of day by day shares with the planning tools. After the analysis of the critical elements and its relation to the integration of Campus Afogados da Ingazeira's shares with the strategic planning of the institution, the main results of the research show that strategic planning is not effectively used as systematically management tool. The responsible for the implementation of actions that would achieve the objectives it determined not realize the presence of planning as a legitimate guiding of daily actions. The proposed action to start the continuous improvement cycle of integration between the strategic planning and regular actions, focuses around the involvement of management to adopt strategic planning as a management tool; designation of leaders to facilitate the process of developing, monitoring and evaluation plan with the articulation of Rectory and Campi, and promoting participatory planning. The other solutions would arise as a result of these actions, as the process was being improved by new cycles of learning promoted by its monitoring and review.
