Chapter 15. Archipelago of Empire.

1. Mills (1956); I also draw on an appreciative essay by John H. Summers, "The Deciders," New York Times Book Review (May 14, 2006), p. 39. David Gibbs has noted how concerns about high defense spending materialized again in the late 1970s and in the early 199os, only to disappear with the "war on terror." See Gibbs (2004).

2. Acheson (1969), 7.

3. Spending went above the $400 billion point in 1968 (Vietnam) and during the 1983-88 Reagan buildup. Michael E. O'Hanlon, "Limiting the Growth of the U.S. Defense Budget," Brookings Inst.i.tution Policy Brief no. 95 (March zooz); also table, "National Defense Outlays," Statistical Abstract of the United States, 2004-2005 (Washington, D.C.: Government Printing Office, 2006), p. 326. It stood at about $622 billion in constant dollars for fiscal year 2008, or approximately 4 percent of GNP. (David S. Cloud, "Record $622 Billion Budget Requested for the Pentagon," New York Times [February 3, 2007], p. Air.) For an excellent and succinct account of how from 1947 to 1952 American planners linked Northeast Asia and Western Europe together in a productivist growth coalition and then primed global economic pumps through military Keynesianism, see Borden (1984), 3-17- 4. See my longer discussion in c.u.mings (1990), 26-27.

5. Williams (1959), 20-26.

6. In May 1966 de Gaulle said he wanted "full sovereignty [over] French territory" and so asked Washington to take American forces and bases home. See Johnson (2004), 194.

7. I am indebted to Patrick Karl O'Brien for discussion on these points, and for his paper, "The Pax Brittannica and the International Order, 1688-1914," presented at the Osaka University of Foreign Studies Workshop on Global History, November zz-23, 1999.

10. McMurtry quoted in Little (1986), 53-54; see also p. 58.

z3. Greg Grandin is right to locate some of the roots of George W. Bush's unilateralism in Reagan administration interventions in Nicaragua and Guatemala, with John Negroponte, John Bolton, Elliott Abrams, and other neoconservatives playing important roles. See Grandin (2006), 5-6. But these interventions were little different from the mult.i.tude of similar episodes going back to the war with Spain, and all of them were subordinate to the more important Pacific and East Asian involvements.

26. Casualty totals for Okinawa can never be accurate because so many civilians simply disappeared in battle or threw themselves into the ocean. Masahide Ota estimates 130,000 civilians "killed in action," which includes 107,539 counted and 23,764 estimated (Ota [1981], 95). The Armitage Report represented the views of a sixteen-member study group; Democrat Joseph Nye was a member but the majority were Republicans. The report was issued on October 11, 2000.
