TL;DR: Greenfeld and Chirot's article on nationalism and aggression is an adaptation from Greenfeld's much longer work on the development of nationalism in England, France, Russia, Germany and the United States.
Abstract: Liah Greenfeld and Daniel Chirot's article on nationalism and aggression is an adaptation from Greenfeld's much longer work on the development of nationalism in England, France, Russia, Germany and the United States. Having examined the larger book, I find it an extremely well-researched and insightful discussion of the origins and development of different conceptions of nationalism in these countries from the sixteenth through the nineteenth centuries. I must admit to having a good deal more trouble, however, with their attempt to extrapolate from her model to explain the behavior of some of these and other nations in the twentieth century.

TL;DR: The importance of such simulations, the author asserts, lie not only in fostering international trust, but also in identifying problem areas and finding solutions early to ensure effective cooperation in any future scenarios.
Abstract: As the Cold War began to thaw lines of communication were gradually opened up. Evidence of this fact is the establishment of a series of talks between the Soviet, US and Royal Navies, which led to a series of war games, culminating last May in RUKUS ‘94—a simulated multi‐national peacekeeping operation. Commander Leslie Sim takes this as a starting point for examining the issues and difficulties involved in multi‐national peacekeeping operations. These include interoperability, language and command and control. The importance of such simulations the author asserts, lie not only in fostering international trust, but also in identifying these problem areas and finding solutions early to ensure effective cooperation in any future scenarios.
