Coercive diplomacy meets diversionary incentives: the impact of US and Iranian domestic politics during the Bush and Obama presidencies / Davies, Graeme A M   Journal Article
Davies, Graeme A M Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2012.
Summary/Abstract This paper applies theories of strategic conflict avoidance and diversionary war to help explain US-Iranian interactions. The article argues that US attempts at coercive diplomacy have tended to strengthen hardliners in Iran by allowing them to frame opposition to government policies as support for the United States. In particular, US public uncertainty about the advisability of using force against Iran provided both the Supreme Leader and the Iranian President with an opportunity to increase tensions with the United States with little concern about provoking a military strike. The aggressive stance of the Iranian regime is about developing a threat which diverts attention from domestic problems and places it firmly in the arena of the international.
