Feb 9: Episode 5: Andrew J. Bacevich   AJ Bacevich is one of our nation’s most influential historians and prolific national security writers. A retired Army colonel, he’s Professor Emeritus of International Relations and History at Boston University.   A renowned national security realist, Bacevich has written many books about global security issues. His 2008 book “The Limits of Power: The End of American Exceptionalism” is part of the Army War College curriculum. So, he’s a thoughtful guy and he has much wisdom to offer,   But AJ joins the Doomsday Clock podcast to talk about his least-known book. Way back in 1986, while he was an Army officer, he wrote a short book about the Army’s post-Korean War pentomic structure.   Doomsday Clock podcast host Joe Buccino talks with AJ about this odd, mostly forgotten period in Army history. What was the pentomic structure? Why did we organize in such a manner? Why was the idea scrapped so quickly? All these questions are answered in this episode.  

The Cold War ended in 1991 marking the end of a bipolar world pitting the U.S. and its allies against the Soviet Union and its Allies. The United States pursued a global liberal economic policy in order to reflect its own system. However, over the last 30 years various mistakes in those policy goals has led the United States to squander that Cold War victory and left its political system polarized to the point of no return, deficit spending that will impact the economy, and interventionist wars that have cost thousands of lives. I had the opportunity to talk to New York Times Bestselling Author Dr. Andrew Bacevich who has written, The Limits of Power: The End of American Exceptionalism (2008) Washington Rules: America's Path to Permanent War(2010) include and his most recent book is The Age of Illusions: How America Squandered Its Cold War Victory. (2019). A very interesting conversation about the failures of the past and how it is going to effect American policies going forward!

Andrew Bacevich was born and raised a Catholic in Indiana, graduated from West Point in 1969, served in Vietnam, and had a career in the Army until 1992, achieving the rank of Colonel. He obtained a Ph.D. from Princeton in American Diplomatic History. He has taught at Boston University and written many books, including "The New American Militarism" (2005), and "The Limits of Power: The End of American Exceptionalism" (2008). He is also a recent founder of The Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft. He joins us on this Veterans Day weekend to talk about American myths and speaks to the tenets of Catholic Just War Theory (JWT). Catechism of the Catholic Church (2309) reads:The strict conditions for legitimate defense by military force require rigorous consideration. The gravity of such a decision makes it subject to rigorous conditions of moral legitimacy. At one and the same time:- the damage inflicted by the aggressor on the nation or community of nations must be lasting, grave, and certain;- all other means of putting an end to it must have been shown to be impractical or ineffective;- there must be serious prospects of success;- the use of arms must not produce evils and disorders graver than the evil to be eliminated. The power of modem means of destruction weighs very heavily in evaluating this condition.These are the traditional elements enumerated in what is called the "just war" doctrine.0:00 Intro3:50 Upbringing7:00 Thoughts on Vietnam11:55 American mythology---self-defense (JWT)---American exceptionalism---last resort (JWT)16:45 Neoconservative views on the use of force19:18 Israel and the use of force24:06 Prospects for success (JWT)25:50 Use of arms must not produce evils and disorders greater than the evil to be eliminated (JWT)30:23 Where is the Catholic Church? 33:27 Have you changed or has the country changed? 36:20 Next book37:40 Advice for young Catholics looking to go into the military38:45 The Quincy Institute for Responsible StatecraftFind Andrew Bacevich at:The Quincy Institutehttps://quincyinst.orgFind his books here: https://www.amazon.com/Andrew-J-Bacevich/e/B003AQW7VG?ref=sr_ntt_srch_lnk_1&qid=1573418729&sr=8-1Find us at : www.catholicsagainstmilitarism.comFind our podcast/RSS feed: http://www.buzzsprout.com/296171

In this episode, Natalia, Neil, Niki, and guest historian Leah Wright Rigueur discuss black women and electoral politics, the closing of Sears, and corporate art patronage. Support Past Present on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/pastpresentpodcast Here are some links and references mentioned during this week’s show:  Black women voters are a crucial electoral contingent, especially in the upcoming midterm elections. We spoke with Dr. Leah Wright Rigueur, author of The Loneliness of the Black Republican: Pragmatic Politics and the Pursuit of Power, about black women’s voting power today and in the past. Niki referenced Rachel Devlin’s book A Girl Stands at the Door, and Leah recommended Brittney Cooper’s Eloquent Rage, Ashley Farmer’s Remaking Black Power, Danielle McGuire’s At the Dark End of the Street, and Keisha Blain’s Set the World on Fire, as all good books for better understanding the long history of black women’s political activism. Sears is closing its doors for good. Natalia mentioned historian Louis Hyman’s viral Twitter thread on how the Sears catalog created opportunities for African Americans to shop during Jim Crow. She also recommended historian Lizabeth Cohen’s book A Consumer’s Republic and historian David K. Johnson’s forthcoming book Buying Gay: How Physique Entrepreneurs Sparked A Movement. We discussed how although art patronage is nothing new, 2018’s unapologetically corporate branding of art feels unprecedented.    In our regular closing feature, What’s Making History: Natalia recommended Jessica Wilkerson’s Longreads article, “Living With Dolly Parton.” Neil shared the news that Judy Blume’s book Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret. is being turned into a movie. Niki discussed W. David Marx’s Vox article, “An American campaign tee is trendy in Asia. Its popularity has nothing to do with the US.”

(1) GEORGE McGOVERN A Politician of Principle (Originally aired November 2005) (2) ANDREW BACEVICH THE LIMITS OF POWER: The End of American Exceptionalism (Originally aired September 2008) As Congress debates a new budget this week, I read the following headline, "Defense hawks in U.S. Congress move to boost military budgets." It's worth noting that the US spends more on "defense" than the next 9 countries combined. So this week I offer you interviews with two men whose military service contributed to their cautious view of America's armed adventures - longtime Senator and 1972 Democratic presidential candidate, George McGovern and retired Army colonel Andrew Bacevich, who is now the first George McGovern Fellow at Columbia University. At 24, I ran an Assembly District in LA County for McGovern's Presidential campaign. In 2005, with the release of the documentary, One Bright Shining Moment: The Forgotten Summer of George McGovern, I had the opportunity to record this interview. in The Limits of Power, I believe Andrew Basevich pulls things together in ways that I hadn't seen before. Things like our politics of personality, the rise of the imperial presidency, and our national culture of consumption and how all of those link to our military adventures. I say each week that I'm looking for pieces of the puzzle, and I believe today's guest is pulling some of them together in ways that make our problems clearer and change more possible.

American power around the world is facing new challenges, and our government is often paralyzed by gridlock. How did we get here, and how do we fix it? Andrew Bacevich, a former Army officer, bestselling author, and professor of international relations and history at Boston University, will address these questions in his free public lecture “The Limits of Power: The End of American Exceptionalism.” The lecture, part of the Center's Alternative Visions lecture series, will take place Thursday, October 23, at 1:30 pm in Old Main’s Carson Ballroom. Time has called him, “one of the most provocative—as in thought-provoking—national security writers out there today.” Bacevich’s bestselling books have offered critical insights into America’s military industrial complex, decades of foreign policy, and the way ordinary citizens relate to the military. A graduate of the U.S. Military Academy, he received his doctorate in American diplomatic history from Princeton University. Before joining the faculty of Boston University, he taught at West Point and Johns Hopkins. In 2004, Bacevich was a Berlin Prize Fellow at the American Academy in Berlin. He has also held fellowships at the Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies, the John F. Kennedy School of Government, and the Council on Foreign Relations. He is a regular contributor to The New York Times, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, and Financial Times, among many other news outlets. His books include: Breach of Trust: How Americans Failed Their Soldiers and Their Country The Limits of Power: The End of American Exceptionalism The New American Militarism: How Americans Are Seduced by War Washington Rules: America’s Path to Permanent War

Andrew Bacevich discussed the U.S.’s over-reliance on military power to achieve its foreign policy aims in his 2011-12 Kritikos Lecture, “A Decade of War,” that took place on May 15th 2012 in the EMU Ballroom. In his talk, Bacevich addressed several urgently important questions: “More than a decade into the ‘Global War on Terror,’ where has that conflict taken us? What has it achieved? What has it cost? Although,” Bacevich notes, “the inclination to turn away from these questions may be strong, Americans should resist that temptation.” Andrew Bacevich was a persistent and vocal critic of the U.S. occupation of Iraq from the outset, describing George W. Bush’s endorsement of such “preventive wars” as “immoral, illicit, and imprudent.” His son, Andrew Bacevich Jr., also an Army officer, was killed in action in Iraq in 2007 at the age of 27. In 2010, Bacevich accused President Obama of “want[ing] us to forget about the lessons of Iraq.” A graduate of West Point (1969), Bacevich holds a Ph.D. in American Diplomatic History from Princeton. He taught at West Point and Johns Hopkins prior to joining the faculty at Boston University in 1998. Bacevich is the author of several books, including Washington Rules: America’s Path to Permanent War (2010); The Limits of Power: The End of American Exceptionalism (2008); and The New American Militarism: How Americans are Seduced by War (2005). He is also the editor of a book of essays titled The Short American Century: A Postmortem (March 2012). Read Andrew Bacevich’s blog at the Huffington Post.

With nearly 380,000 soldiers in over 700 bases currently deployed around the world, and a national defense manufacturing sector employing thousands of Americans at home, has the US become dependent on a never ending war?
