The German Zeitenwende: Turning Point or Blind Alley?
Get PDFThe Zeitenwende, or turning point, announced by Chancellor Olaf Scholz after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, may end up leaving Germany with few good defense policy options.
After Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in 2022, Germany vowed to change course, to expand and modernize its military, which for decades has been weak relative to the size of Europe’s leading economy. As bold as Germany’s declarations have been, German leaders may well have walked into a blind alley, unsure of exactly how Zeitenwende will happen, what the final results will be, or the consequences if they never come close to achieving their promises of far more powerful national capabilities
Earth to Orbit: Three Models for Strengthening Space Deterrence
Get PDFNuclear, cyber, and integrated deterrence models hold lessons for space deterrence strategy, including declared thresholds, resilient space architecture, and the embrace of international competition in technological innovation.
The United States depends heavily on space capabilities, significantly more than any other country. Not only does space enable navigation, communications, environmental monitoring, and other vital capabilities, but space has also been described as the most essential warfighting domain. However, the U.S. space architecture mirrors its early days: relying on important, expensive payloads on a limited number of satellites. While providing important capabilities to U.S. decision-makers, kinetic and non-kinetic weapons can easily target these satellites. Responding to a kinetic attack in space with another kinetic attack would exponentially endanger further space assets with debris clouds. Therefore, deterring kinetic conflict from space is especially important

WOMEN AS ANTI-SUFFRAGISTS IN THE AMERICAN WEST (1869-1920)
Get PDFThe struggle for women’s suffrage in the American West was just as complicated as that of other parts of the United States with a lot of women on both sides of the issue. However, within the narrative of women’s suffrage lies an overlooked story that excludes the role of women who campaigned against the women’s suffrage movement in the American West. From the late nineteenth century to the early twentieth century, a significant portion of women who were described as “antis” vehemently opposed the quest for the enfranchisement of the female population in the American West. This opposition emerged based on various political, social, religious, and ideological motivations backed up with facts using Wyoming, Utah, Idaho, and Colorado elections, as practical examples of failed women’s voting rights. This had a considerable impact on the women’s suffrage movement shaping public opinion and prolonging the fight for women’s enfranchisement in the American West. Despite the eventual success of the movement, exploring the anti-suffragist women instead of agitations from men and the role of religion shows how complex the inherent battle for gender equality persisted. By examining the arguments, tactics, motivations, and impact of the anti-suffragists, we can gain a deeper understanding of the challenges these brave suffragists faced and the effect of their persistence which is enjoyed by every woman today
