Herbert Butterfield and Martin Wight, Allen & Unwin, London, 1966, p. 46. 11 Marshall Shulman, ‘What does security mean today?’, Foreign Affairs 49, no. The superpowers were like members of a cartel who needed to regulate their conflict out of mutual interest, where the market mechanism could not be relied on. On this point, the interests of the two countries are not opposed, but on neither side is this fact yet fully appreciated.11. 1. 4 See Thomas C. Schelling, The Strategy of Conflict, Harvard University Press, Cambridge, MA, 1960. Tacit signalling, as opposed to formal negotiation, mattered a great deal. Strategic Thinking 1. In 1980, as the Cold War was reintensifying, Bull, now back in Oxford, launched a stinging attack on Moscow and Washington for ignoring their Great Power responsibilities to international society, including their retreat from arms control.9 But barely half a decade later, and a year after Bull’s untimely death in 1985, John Lewis Gaddis described in his essay, ‘The long peace’, the rules of the game that both the United States and the Soviet Union had adhered to in order to maintain a measure of stability in their otherwise hazardous relationship.10 Bull might well have agreed with Gaddis here as he had a strong tendency to disagree with himself. It is a concern of this sort that I think led Hugh White towards his China Choice.18 There, his sharing of power argument strikes me as more ambitious than Coral’s adverse partnership, based as the latter is on a similar recognition that there are common as well as competitive interests between the two. Strategy is therefore much more than the use of conflict and threats of conflict. 14 Hedley Bull, ‘Review of Arms and Influence by Thomas C. Schelling’, Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists 23, no. And it was the concept of stability in the Cold War period, and specifically Tom Schelling’s work on that idea, that formed the topic of my PhD thesis at King’s. The intention is to break the confusing circle ... of thinking about management strategy. Fifty years after the Centre was founded in 1966, SDSC celebrated its continued research, publications, teaching and government advisory role with a two-day conference entitled ‘New Directions in Strategic Thinking 2.0’. It’s a key skill required if you have any intention of climbing the corporate ladder, so start work on your strategic thinking skills today. There is a good chance the world will never experience thermonuclear war; however, it was when both sides during the Cuban Crisis stared at the brink of that apocalypse that the arguments of Thomas Schelling, Hedley Bull and others really gained wings. A great deal still depended on the unilateral nature of that restraint. 4. The two sides meet regularly at the US–China Economic and Strategic Dialogue.

Threats of harm were more important than actual violence, and they were also more meaningful because actual violence could be so utterly devastating in the nuclear age.6 Once the Russians had broken the United States’ nuclear monopoly, a full-scale nuclear exchange would resemble the category of absolute war, which Clausewitz, writing more than a century beforehand, had suggested was philosophically necessary but which in normal circumstances was practically unreachable. If the answer is yes, we had better get our strategic skates on. It is not the mere study of conflict, because, as Brodie once said, ‘strategy is a theory for action.’20 It is not just the pursuit of ends through available means, because to manage conflict is to have a deliberate influence on other actors in our interactions with them. The economic interconnectedness between China and the United States is at least partly an accident of economic history. In terms of the second factor, we had better hope that the conflict management that does occur directly between China and the United States lies through informal, tacit and unilateral actions. My final point here is that the idea of an adverse partnership can do more than tell us a good deal about the US–Soviet strategic interaction during the Cold War. 12 Marshall Shulman, ‘Toward a Western philosophy of coexistence’, Foreign Affairs 52, no. 123–46. The military as an element of national power, 5. In this case, however, there was but one lecture. Bell asserts in The Conventions of Crisis that ‘the basic instrument of crisis management is what I shall call the signal’: By signal I mean a threat or offer communicated to the other party or parties to the crisis. There is enough evidence to suggest that China and the United States wish to avoid war in their relations and to keep any sabres rattling rather than brandished in an actual engagement. But in terms of their management of their own bilateral security relationship, the formal symbols of a deeper understanding are few and far between. Cold War strategic concepts played a significant part in my time as a student at The Australian National University (ANU). And few expect major war between the United States and China to be around the corner, even if some feel the tensions between them are growing. 3, 1980, pp. Horner, George Allen & Unwin, London, 1981, p. 19. 10 John Lewis Gaddis, ‘The long peace: Elements of stability in the post-war international system’, International Security 10, no. 5–10. This was an idea that Bell said she had borrowed from the Soviet specialist Marshall Shulman.1 It was to view the relationship between the main Cold War protagonists, the US and the Soviet Union, as an adverse partnership. The authors present an overview of strategic planning, examine its history and mystique, and conclude that planning, if properly implemented, can have a powerful impact on advancing and transforming colleges and universities.

There might also have been something of a tacit understanding to deflect the competition into other areas, including the fighting of proxy wars, the competition for allies and the arms race itself. A primary focus for their limited cooperation is the conscious management of the conflict that exists between them, avoiding its escalation into a situation that both of them will regret. And a fourth stems from that: the incredibly high stakes of the game that was being played. In reading her slim volume, The Conventions of Crisis, while I was on sabbatical here in 2013, one concept stood out to me as an approach to understanding the management of Great Power crises. A bias for action? [A model is] a template: You use it at the beginning of the planning process. We forget how revolutionary it was to argue that the two supposedly implacable foes could also be seen as partners. Academically, I do not take much relief from any view, however widely accepted it may be, that the United States and China are not sliding into a US–Soviet-style Cold War. People tend to try to squeeze strategic planning discussions in between putting out fires and going on much needed vacations. John J. Frewen. And it can do even more than offer us some good questions to ask about great power strategic relations today. We know that Bull also favoured the logic of adverse partnerships even though he also probably did not use the term. 7 Bernard Brodie, The Absolute Weapon, Harcourt Brace, New York, 1946, p. 74. 6,704 New Directions in Strategic Thinking jobs available on Indeed.com. The decline of the classical model of military strategy, 4. “Think of models as a way of ideating strategy. In Asia’s Security, I was looking for those factors that linked the wider region together in security terms.

Such signals [she added] are not necessarily verbal messages. The two main powers remained in a more or less oligopolistic position, although in Asia, with China’s emergence, more of a triangle emerged. 1 See Coral Bell, The Conventions of Crisis: A Study in Diplomatic Management, Oxford University Press for Royal Institute for International Affairs, London, 1971, p. 50n. STRATEGIC ISSUES A Strategic Issue is any issue that significantly influences a person’s, a work group’s or an organization’s ability to develop and maintain a competitive advantage. Fifty years after the Centre was founded in 1966, SDSC celebrated its continued research, publications, teaching and government advisory role with a two-day conference entitled ‘New Directions in Strategic Thinking 2.0’. Strategic leadership: the ability to anticipate, envision, maintain flexibility, and empower others to create strategic change as necessary. I wonder how much of an adverse partnership is really there. An adverse partnership requires a measure of crisis stability that we might wonder about. If we regard mutual deterrence in the way Schelling refers to it as the exchange of all possible hostages,16 we can see how coercion (in the form of the threats of major harm) was used to sustain a joint no-attack commitment. This is a mutual commitment to use coercion rather than war itself as a way of managing the conflict, and indeed as a way of avoiding severe escalation to war. It can remind us what strategic studies is about. This argument was perhaps not quite so hard for Coral Bell to make; after all, The Conventions of Crisis was published in 1971, by which time the short-lived superpower détente had well and truly taken hold. This makes it even more important to lay out the factors that made for an adverse partnership. Allow time for big-picture, strategic thinking. An adverse partnership also implies that even when we do see great powers working together, we should not be fooled into thinking that they are no longer adversaries. ... to regularly adopt new strategic paradigms. The event saw the podium graced by many of the world’s premier thinkers in the strategic … This does not mean that they cannot have such an understanding.

It would be wrong to suggest that this theme was recognised consistently by all who adopted it, or that each one of the scholars mentioned here saw the adverse partnership operating in the same fashion. Old wine in new bottles? How that relationship evolves, and what it means for Asia’s security, and what that then means for Australia, will be the most important set of connected questions for many of the next 50 years of the SDSC. This raises a further question. Old wine in new bottles? Conclusion: What is the future of strategic studies?

This is not the end of the world. But the idea that the principal adversaries of that era can be regarded as partners as well as competitors suggests that this view is false. Bull saw that a fairly crude equilibrium of power in the form of the balance of terror had been created by the superpower arms race. What about the rest of us in the Asia Pacific, or, as Australia now likes to say, the Indo-Pacific? Amid these politically charged battles for the interpretation of the post-war order, it is not surprising if some of our students see the Cold War as a period of unrelenting zero-sum competition. So what does, or perhaps what did, an adverse partnership consist of, and why was it important? I do not think even the most worrying climate change picture we can imagine today can quite compete with the potentially instantaneous gravity of a full-on thermonuclear exchange. And I wonder whether they see an adverse partnership as completely necessary. In order to understand what the strategic framework looks like in action, you need to dissect it. Arriving in Canberra in the early part of 1988, the penultimate year of the multi-decade struggle between East and West, I joined the smaller predecessor to today’s much larger master’s program. There is no doubt that the fifth factor applies: that the wider region depends heavily on the ability of China and the United States to mix a bit of partnering with their competition.

This coercion also includes the United States’ direct deterrence of China (and vice versa). 2016 marks the 50th anniversary of SDSC’s founding and the 25th anniversary of the Cold War’s ending. The continued relevance of Cold War strategic concepts. 6, 2009–10, pp. They recognise a common interest in avoiding war in the East China Sea, and in ensuring through compatible unilateral signalling that Tokyo does not push either of them too far in that direction. 3, 1967, pp. This was the informal agreement to avoid actual major hostilities. One of the reasons for these concerns is connected to the fourth factor: that the Cold War adverse partners had seen the abyss in the Cuban Crisis and were aware what was at stake should their conflict not be managed. The two sides can work together without counting rules, without incidents at sea agreements and even without China’s involvement in whatever will become of Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START). New Directions in Strategic Thinking 2.0. Clipping is a handy way to collect important slides you want to go back to later. This interdependence is not the guarantee of a commitment to conflict management that some might want to think. 6 He developed this theme in Thomas C. Schelling, Arms and Influence, Yale University Press, New Haven, 1966. Theirs is a rocky marriage in which they cannot live with each other but cannot live without each other as well. Whatever the merits of these claims, it must be accepted that Washington cannot, and does not, accuse Beijing of using violent force, including actual hostilities, to achieve its foreign policy objectives. He is a New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestselling author on strategy and has appeared on ABC, NBC and FOX TV. There is nothing harmonious here. It is conscious activity designed to influence the expectations and behaviour of the other side, and to influence the expectations and behaviour of others in the region. 15 Bell, The Conventions of Crisis, p. 49. I say this because at the heart of the adverse partnership is the management of conflict. Washington and Moscow might have defined strategic stability in less than identical ways, but their arms control agreements reflected their joint assessment that they had a common interest in regulating a major aspect of their Cold War competition.3 Both saw mutual survival as a core interest, to use a term that has become associated with the foreign policy of today’s China. If partners are also adversaries, we cannot expect their partnership to be smooth or thoroughly consistent. New Directions for Modelling Strategic Behavior: Game-Theoretic Models of Communication, Coordination, and Cooperation in Economic Relationships by Vincent P. Crawford. Strategy to Schelling was a question of manipulating risk, but this logic worked only if you thought the other side had an interest in keeping the competition within limits. But years earlier, when the superpowers were in the middle of relaxing their tensions, even Shulman was not sure they had got it right.

We … I think the adverse partnership idea tells us a great deal about the nature of our subject. Moreover, evidence of threats of force are not difficult to find. (‘In modern conditions’, Bell tells us, ‘it is only wars of limited objective and limited liability that have been found feasible.’15 But even limited wars between the superpowers were out of bounds.) Old wine in new bottles? A strategic plan should not be solely an incremental list of current activities, but have at least a 20% ‘ah ha’ factor of new ideas. 20 Bernard Brodie, War and Politics, Macmillan, New York, 1973, p. 452. For their benefit, it concerns me when the Cold War is stereotyped because of academic laziness or because of the simplification of complex history to serve geopolitical agendas. Strategic Thinking and Exploration . I think there were five of these in the Cold War adverse partnership. My assessment, which should probably not surprise any of us, is that the China–US strategic interaction was the most important of these system-wide factors.19. July 1966 saw the founding of The Australian National University’s Strategic & Defence Studies Centre (SDSC). CRICOS Provider : 00120C Do whatever it takes to allow that time for big-picture thinking (including taking your team off-site).

Beyond ‘hangovers’: The new parameters of post–Cold War nuclear strategy, 9. 2. All of these perspectives could be right, of course. 8 See Hedley Bull, ‘Society and anarchy in international relations’, in Diplomatic Investigations, ed. But things were more complex than this initial picture suggests. This precocious scholar, who took up his ANU chair a year after the SDSC was established, argued that the great powers had a special responsibility to recognise and nourish their common interests in the working of an international society. In 1971 he argued: security in the realm of strategic weapons would be best served by a stable equilibrium at as moderate a level as can be managed through explicit or tacit agreement with our adversaries. There is also enough evidence to suggest that they can work together to manage the interaction of their coercion—think of their cooperation after the EP-3 spy plane incident and the now fairly regular management of some fairly hairy moments on the high seas. 25–6. 5 Lawrence Freedman, The Evolution of Nuclear Strategy, 2nd edn, Macmillan/St Martin’s Press with International Institute for Strategic Studies, Basingstoke and New York, 1989, p. 208. Just as some see the Cold War as an especially difficult and competitive period of international politics, which today’s Asia cannot afford to repeat, some others are tempted to look back nostalgically on an era that was not nearly as simple or stable as they might think. The notion that they could also be partners rested uneasily alongside that fact. Instead, the Americans and the Russians were obliged to take deliberate steps to manage their conflict if deterrence was to be stable. This is one reason why thinking about adverse partnerships is important. 17 For one significant depiction of their other than zero-sum relationship, see Rosemary Foot, ‘China and the United States: Between cold and warm peace’, Survival 51, no. The second danger is inside-oriented strategic thinking. If an adverse partnership is in essence a way of managing conflict, what role do third parties have in helping that management? An obvious and necessary question to ask is whether this formulation does have continued relevance. It meant that the fostering of an adverse partnership was not desirable. The crucial point is that so much of the conflict management that did occur did not happen through carefully calibrated exchanges of actual violence––it was conflict management through coercion and the management of that coercive diplomacy itself. But to create a strategic plan, your team needs time to think big. A number of these themes had been explored by Schelling, including in T.C. They pay only neglectful attention to market trends and listen to customers . See my analysis in Robert Ayson, Hedley Bull and the Accommodation of Power, Palgrave Macmillan, London, 2012. Sound strategic thinking doesn’t have to remain an abstract mystery only a few are able to realize. The authors present an overview of strategic planning, examine its history and mystique, and conclude that planning, if properly implemented, can have a powerful impact on advancing and transforming colleges and universities. 1980s’, in New Directions in Strategic Thinking, ed. It helps us remember that, although these tensions were very serious and dangerous, they did not lead inevitably to war. Nor do they need the East Asia Summit to do the impossible and create some real institutional legs. The first of these might seem striking for us today. One wonders whether the adverse partnership was akin to what Hedley Bull once said about Schelling’s tacit bargains. And that concept is my focus in this chapter. They were, in other words, adverse partners (a term I do not think Schelling himself quite came to use). Horner from Waterstones today! Fifty years after the Centre was founded in 1966, SDSC celebrated its continued research, publications, teaching and government advisory role with a two-day conference entitled ‘New Directions in Strategic Thinking 2.0’. Instead, they were more like the two big oligopolistic firms whose every move depended on the move the other made, and whose self-interests did not include the disappearance of each other.4. By ‘adverse partnership’ [she explained], I do not mean to imply anything particularly cordial, trusting or friendly: only a consciousness, between the dominant powers, that they have solid common interests as well as sharp conflicting interests.2. 2 US Department of Defense, Summary of the 2018National Defense Strategy of the United States of America: Sharpening the American Military’s … Are they more inclined to think that they can press on with their aims—which for the United States includes the maintenance of regional primacy and which for China includes challenging that status quo—without worrying quite as much as we would want them to about the risks of that behaviour?
