This case study describes the negotiations accompanying the process of France’s withdrawal from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization’s integrated military system, including the expulsion of NATO units from French soil.

As such, the case is particularly useful for courses on international negotiation and bargaining, and for courses involving alliance organizations and Western security affairs.

This case study analyzes U.S.-Soviet negotiations during the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis, focusing on the processes involved and the bureaucratic reactions of the two governments. It concentrates on U.S. decision-making during the closed deliberations of a group that advised President John F. Kennedy, the Executive Committee of the National Security Council. The case discusses when, if ever, the U.S. executive branch should make a policy decision without consulting the other branches of government; what constitutes forewarning between governments; what emphasis the U.S. government placed on moral or legal justifications for its actions and what importance was given to national security issues; and what the influence of U.S. allies was in this crisis.

Throughout World War II, Great Britain, the Soviet Union, and the United States discussed a wide variety of proposals for dealing with Germany after the war. This case study focuses on the Allies’ exchanges on that subject between 1943 and the 1945 Potsdam Conference. Their deliberations offer important insights into the dynamics of the “German Question” and the origins of the Cold War. The study is designed to stimulate students’ thinking about these issues, as well as the impact of national objectives on international diplomacy, and to show in detail how nations define and pursue their national interests. It could be paired with Case Study 139, “The German Question and the Cold War.”

The Dominican Intervention of 1965
written by Linda Head Flanagan, fl. 1995 and William Rosenau, fl. 1995, in Institute for the Study of Diplomacy Case Study Program, Case 208 (District of Columbia: Georgetown University. School of Foreign Service. Institute for the Study of Diplomacy, 1995), 13 page(s)
This case study examines the 1965 U.S. intervention in the Dominican Republic from the military point of view. U.S. troops were expected to actively oppose rebel forces; yet soon had to shift their mindset and become impartial guardians of order—that is, to engage in “stability” operations.

This case study examines the 1965 U.S. intervention in the Dominican Republic from the military point of view. U.S. troops were expected to actively oppose rebel forces; yet soon had to shift their mindset and become impartial guardians of order—that is, to engage in “stability” operations. The focus on military missions and rules of engagement provides a useful counterexample to the U.S.-led, U.N.-sanctioned international intervention in Somalia (1992-1994). It could also be used to examine U.S. policy in the developing world, particularly Latin America, or issues surrounding peacekeeping operations. The case can be assigned with “Operation Restore Hope: The Bush Administration's Decision to Intervene in Somalia” (Case Study 210); and “Key Decisions in the Somalia Intervention” (Case Study 211).

This case study describes the politics that surrounded U.S. decision-making in response to an attempt by the Soviet Union to build a submarine base at Cienfuegos, Cuba, in 1970. The narrative highlights the political moves by President Richard Nixon and National Security Adviser Henry Kissinger, who disagreed over how to respond to this event. It also tracks developments once the Soviet actions went public in the United States and discusses the political process by which situations come to be defined as a crisis or non-crisis, as well as the bureaucratic politics involved in the process. This case study would be particularly useful for courses on U.S. foreign and national security policy.
