199127328New York: Ticknor & Fields 1991. First Printing. Hardcover. very good/very good. 24 cm 501 pages illus. sources notes index. Foreword by Arthur Schlesinger. Inscribed by the author. The contributions of the Morgenthau family in the public arena have included an ambassador a cabinet member prominent businessmen a Pulitzer Prize-winning historian and other luminaries. From an on-line posting: Henry Morgenthau 1856-1946 was United States ambassador to the Ottoman Empire during the Armenian Genocide. A naturalized American from a German Jewish family Morgenthau was a successful lawyer active in Democratic Party politics. With the election of President Woodrow Wilson he was appointed United States Ambassador to the Sublime Porte in 1913. In Constantinople he established personal contact with the Young Turk leaders of the Ottoman Empire especially the Minister of the Interior Talaat with whom he unsuccessfully intervened to alleviate the plight of the Armenian population when beginning in April 1915 news of the deportations and massacres began to reach the Embassy. On June 5 1915 Jackson shared his views about the persecutions with the Ambassador and concluded that they constituted "a carefully planned scheme to thoroughly extinguish the Armenian race." Morgenthau forwarded all the reports to Washington D.C. The accumulating evidence also led Morgenthau to cable the Department of State on July 16 1915 with his own dispatch that "a campaign of race extermination is in progress." Drained by his failure to avert this disaster Morgenthau returned to the United States in 1916 and for the remainder of the war years he dedicated himself to raising funds for the surviving Armenians. In 1918 he published Ambassador Morgenthau's Story a memoir of his years in Turkey in which he stressed the German influence and role in the Ottoman Empire. He titled the chapter on the Armenians "The Murder of a Nation." He described the deportations and the atrocities as a "cold-blooded calculating state policy." He avowed at the time: "I am confident that the whole history of the human race contains no such horrible episode as this." Morgenthau was the father of Henry Morgenthau Jr. Secretary of the Treasury during the administration of US President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Ticknor & Fields hardcover

Illustrations. Tabular Data. Appendix. Bibliography. Historical Glossary. Index. DJ has substantial wear tears chips and soiling. Ink marks to text noted. The name of a previous owner in ink inside the front cover. A comprehensive theory of international relations revolving around the central principle of power. This revised edition issued during the height of the Cold War stresses charismatic power and elaborates on the discussion of political ideologies. He discusses the balance of power. Hans Joachim Morgenthau February 17 1904 - July 19 1980 was a German-American political scientist. He was one of the major twentieth-century figures in the study of international relations. Morgenthau is considered among the influential realists of the post-World War II period. Morgenthau made landmark contributions to international relations theory and the study of international law. Politics Among Nations was widely adopted as a textbook in U.S. universities. Morgenthau emphasized the centrality of power and "the national interest" -- "the struggle for power and peace" -- his concern was with the struggle for power and the ways in which it is limited by ethics norms and law. Derived from a New York Times article by Barry Gewen: At the start of the Cold War America found itself in a position of leadership for which it was intellectually unprepared. The approach that became the guiding principle of foreign policy over the next four decades was as devised by George F. Kennan known as containment. But the man who provided the intellectual scaffolding for it was Hans J. Morgenthau. Morgenthau set out his ideas most fully in his 1948 masterwork "Politics Among Nations" a book that bears returning to today for the lessons it offers a contemporary America struggling once again to clarify its stance toward a volatile world. Virtually as soon as it was published "Politics Among Nations" became one of the most influential books of the 20th century. Nearly 100 colleges and universities including Harvard Yale and Princeton adopted it for classes and within five years it apparently was being assigned on the nation's campuses more often than all of the other textbooks on foreign policy combined. It wasn't only college undergraduates who were reading it. The book's admirers constituted a Who's Who of the period's leading thinkers on foreign policy: Kennan Walter Lippmann Reinhold Niebuhr Raymond Aron and Arthur Schlesinger Jr. Probably no one took more from "Politics Among Nations" than Henry Kissinger. "We shared almost identical premises" Kissinger said at the time of Morgenthau's death in 1980. "I never ceased admiring him or remembering the profound intellectual debt I owed him." Morgenthau's book so revolutionized thinking that its author has been called the founding father of the entire modern study of international affairs. Some have compared his status to that of Freud in psychology. At the dawn of the Cold War "Politics Among Nations" tried to steer a path between isolationists who were suspicious of any foreign entanglements and idealists who believed that America had a mission to convert the world to democracy. Locating that middle ground was the key to its success in 1948. It's an outlook that still has relevance today. Alfred A. Knopf hardcover
