About This Book
"Since the 1930s, appeasement has been labeled as a futile and possibly dangerous policy. In this study, Stephen Rock seeks to restore appeasement to its proper place as a legitimate - and potentially successful - diplomatic strategy.".
"Appeasement in international Politics suggests the type of appeasement strategy most appropriate for various situations. The options range from pure inducements to reciprocity, to a mixture of inducements and threats. In addition to this theoretical framework, Rock's explicit comparison of appeasement and deterrence offers important guidelines for policymakers on when and how to implement a strategy of appeasement.".
"At a time when the strategy of engagement plays an increasingly central - and controversial - role in U.S. foreign policy, Appeasement in international Politics reestablishes the long-discredited use of inducements as an effective means of preventing conflict."--BOOK JACKET.
