A comment on professor reynolds's note

Abstract: terminology, there is an operational environment and a psychological environment, and in their case also it is the latter which is relevant to decision-making. So it may not be true that ‘The closer the decision-maker is to the top, the more remote is his psychological environment from his operational one’ (p. 8) (Mr. Frankel argues this to be so by instancing the necessary abbreviation and distortion of information as it passes to the decision-maker through a series of intermediaries), because his intuitional assessment of the psychological environment of the decision-makers in the other states with which he is dealing may be more exact than that of his better-informed advisers. No ’omniscient observer’ of Hitler’s operational environment in March 1936 could possibly have reached Hitler’s decision to march his troops into the Rhineland, were it not for the one element-the psychological environment of the French decision-makers. This element must accordingly feature in any decision-making model in foreign policy, and it does of course introduce a new variable interacting with the others. This is no reason for the model to be discarded, but it does mean that it must be operated with even greater caution than would otherwise be required.
