Abstract:
The following exchange builds upon, and reassesses, the intellectual trajectory of Robert Jervis since The Logic of Images. It is organised around three interrelated sections that, tentatively, squeeze out the gist of Jervis' contribution to IR during his three and half decades of remarkable scholarship. The purpose, however, is not to offer a comprehensive view of Jervis' work; instead I want to set signposts that will help us get smoothly into his ‘system of thought’ and substantiate the salience of his account. In the first section, we concentrate on issues of images and (mis)perceptions. Here, Jervis reasserts that political psychology, a crucial site of relevance of actors' behaviour, is perfectly amenable to a rigorous analysis, and should thus be granted a pivotal role in understanding the dynamics of world politics. Insights of political psychology, with their various implications, are taken up into the next section, the rationale of which is to dialogically sketch out the paradoxical ethos of deterrence theory. The third section, on complexity theory, brings forward the breadth of Jervis's reorientation, characterised by a systematic integration of various ideas that have been at the centre of his endeavour since the 1980s. We use contemporary world politics as a thread that connects the aforementioned segments of the discussion and thereby gives the journey its overall coherence.

Abstract:
Robert Jervis's article “Cooperation under the Security Dilemma” is among the most important works in international relations of the past few decades. In it, Jervis develops two essential arguments. First, he explains that the security dilemma is the key to understanding how in an anarchic international system states with fundamentally compatible goals still end up in competition and at war. The security dilemma exists when “many of the means by which a state tries1to increase its security decrease the security of others.” It provides the rational foundation for what Jervis termed the “spiral model,” which describes how the interaction between states that are seeking only security can fuel competition and strain political relations.2Second, Jervis explains that the magnitude and nature of the security dilemma depend on two variables: the offense-defense balance and offense-defense differentiation.3As a result, the security dilemma can vary across space and time. Although states exist in a condition of international anarchy that does not vary, there can be significant variation in the attractiveness of cooperative or competitive means, the prospects for achieving a high level of security, and the probability of war.

Abstract:
In this important book, Robert Jervis reveals his solid credentials as an intelligence insider. For him, this is not a conflict in roles. He is a social scientist, first, who hopes that the U.S. intelligence community (IC) will learn from its mistakes by adhering to sound social scientific practices. Jervis offers striking comparisons between the IC's failure to predict the overthrow of the Shah of Iran with the events of 1978–79—which the author assessed in a declassified internal review for the Central Intelligence Agency—and the erroneous judgment that Iraq had stockpiled biological and chemical weapons and was reconstituting its nuclear program, which the Bush administration used to justify the 2003 Iraq war. Drawing predominantly from these cases, Jervis argues that critical deficiencies in intelligence result because analysts fail to articulate their assumptions, subject these arguments to appropriate scrutiny, consider rival hypotheses that fit the evidence, test arguments by offering predictions, consider negative and positive evidence when evaluating assertions, and seek information that might disconfirm their existing point of view.

Lee, Sang Gap. "An analysis of the role of the great powers towards the possibility of forming a security regime in northeast Asia : with particular reference to the theory of Robert Jervis." Thesis, University of Aberdeen, 1999. http://ethos.bl.uk/OrderDetails.do?uin=uk.bl.ethos.417871.

Full text
Abstract:
The objective of this study was to find out if Northeast Asia has the potential to form a security regime according to the conditions set out in Robert Jervis' theory, which are that (1) great powers must want to establish a regime; (2) the actors must also believe that others share the value they place an mutual security and co-operation; (3) regimes cannot form if one or more actors believe that security is best provided for by expansion; and (4) war or the individualistic pursuit of security must be regarded by all potential regime participants as more costly than collaboration. The other objective was to review theories that have been extensively applied to this study, and thus find an appropriate approach towards a Northeast Asian security arrangement. It has been concluded that the co-operative security concept is most applicable to Northeast Asia. Firstly, because of the rudimentary assumption that bilateral agreements become enormously problematic and susceptible to collective security politics, the idea of co-operative security becomes more applicable to Northeast Asia, as Northeast Asian countries not only prefer to maintain bilateral relationships, but also bear the current alliance of other parties. Secondly, compared to Europe, where the outside threat of the Soviet Union was needed to form a collective defence system, the cooperative security idea is more appropriate in Northeast Asia where the characteristics and source of dormant security threats differ widely. Thirdly, assuming that the present trend of economic co-operation is inextricably connected with one of the principles of co-operative security, co-operative security has become more applicable to Northeast Asia. Lastly, due to the increasing number of NGOs in Northeast Asia, the co-operative security idea is applicable to Northeast Asia. The conclusions of an analysis of the role of the great powers towards the possibility of forming a security regime in Northeast Asia with particular reference to the theory of Robert Jervis are as follows. Firstly, while the strong support of Japan and Russia to form a security arrangement in Northeast Asia is a facilitating factor, the lukewarm stance of America and China towards the idea is the most significant constraining factor. It could also be said that the lukewarm support of China and the USA is due to the lack of confidence between the US, afraid of the possible emergence of substitute regional hegemony, and China worrying about the U.S. and Japan's allied influence in a security regime. Thus confidence building between the U.S. and China is one of the key factors needed to form a security regime in the region.

Abstract:
This chapter shows how the canonical international relations literature fails to solve the cybersecurity dilemma. The mitigations that had previously been outlined no longer work on the new problems posed by cybersecurity. The chapter examines two major works, one each by Robert Jervis and Charles Glaser. It considers how each, while valuable in the areas conventional weaponry, has key weaknesses when it comes to network intrusions. The fundamental assumptions on which they rely, such as the offense-defense balance and a sharp differentiation between offensive and defensive weapons, do not work well in cybersecurity.

Abstract:
This chapter traces the arc of the security dilemma through time. It begins with Thucydides and, stretching through the formal articulation with John Herz, Herbert Butterfield, and Robert Jervis, and continuing through the Cold War. It makes the link to intelligence work, a connection first made by Michael Herman. In particular, it shows how the security dilemma is most potent when there is a strong linkage between intelligence collection and attack, as is the case in cyber operations. This tight linkage makes collection activity more threatening, and is more likely to lead to a response by the involved nations.

Abstract:
What kind of nuclear strategy and posture does the United States need to defend itself and its allies? According to conventional wisdom, the answer to this question is straightforward: the United States needs the ability to absorb an enemy nuclear attack and respond with a devastating nuclear counterattack. These arguments are logical and persuasive, but, when compared to the empirical record, they raise an important puzzle. Empirically, we see that the United States has consistently maintained a nuclear posture that is much more robust than a mere second-strike capability. How do we make sense of this contradiction? Scholarly deterrence theory, including Robert Jervis’s seminal book, The Illogic of American Nuclear Strategy, argues that the explanation is simple—policymakers are wrong. This book takes a different approach. Rather than dismiss it as illogical, it explains the logic of American nuclear strategy. It argues that military nuclear advantages above and beyond a secure, second-strike capability can contribute to a state’s national security goals. This is primarily because nuclear advantages reduce a state’s expected cost of nuclear war, increasing its resolve, providing it with coercive bargaining leverage, and enhancing nuclear deterrence. This book provides the first theoretical explanation for why military nuclear advantages translate into geopolitical advantages. In so doing, it resolves one of the most intractable puzzles in international security studies. The book also explains why, in a world of growing dangers, the United States must possess, as President Donald J. Trump declared, a nuclear arsenal “at the top of the pack.”

Abstract:
The perception that other states are more centralized and better organized than they actually are, as Robert Jervis (1976, 319–42) pointed out in his classic Perception and Misperception in International Politics, is a common phenomenon in international relations. Today, one of the most widely shared myths about China is how its political model is unique because it has succeeded in completing large-scale projects, from building the longest bridge in the world to lifting hundreds of millions of people out of poverty, in a quick and effective way. Dazzled by those achievements, regardless of their actual success, both supporters and detractors often take them as evidence of China’s capacity to play the long game, to work out and execute complex strategies. After all, when so much time has been spent, so many sacrifices made, so many resources consumed, there must be a plan. Every headline, every announcement, every statement about the next big project reinforces this myth. Myths like this appear useful and are easily accepted because they help us to simplify reality and justify our actions. They conveniently spare us having to look at what lies beneath the surface. This is why they are created and why they are dangerous when they are used as foundations for political arguments at times of growing tensions in international affairs....

Abstract:
This paper investigates multi-robot coordination for the deployment of autonomous mobile robots in order to carry out a specific task. A key to utilizing of the full potential of cooperative multi-robot systems is effective and efficient multi-robot coordination. The paper presents a novel method of multi-robot coordination based on an Artificial Immune System. The developed approach relies on Jern’s Immune Network Theory, which concerns how an antibody stimulates or suppresses another antibody and recognizes non-self antigens. In the present work, the robots are analogous to antibodies and the robotic task is analogous to an antigen in a biological immune system. Furthermore, stimulation and suppression in an immune system correspond to communication among robots. The artificial immune system will select the appropriate number of antibodies autonomously to eliminate the antigens. The developed method of multirobot coordination is verified by computer simulation.

Abstract:
Abstract This paper utilizes the modified pattern search method to solve the nonlinear optimization problem of design of minimum-time robot trajectories between given end states in a workspace containing obstacles. This method is applied to a collision-free path of a two-degree-of-freedom elbow manipulator. Bezier curves, B-spline curves, and parabolic blend curves are used to simplify end-effector path planning. Motion of the manipulator, represented by a sequence of Cartesian knots along the end-effector path, is first transformed into sets of joints displacements. Piecewise cubic spline functions are then fit to the sequence of joint displacements. The minimum-time trajectory planning problem is formulated as the problem of minimizing the total traveling time, taken as objective function, subject to constraints on joint positions, velocities, accelerations, jerks, motor torques, and end-effector acceleration. The computer program, ROBOPATH, has been developed to implement this algorithm for generating end-effector paths and joint trajectories for a manipulator with two links. The results show the modified pattern search method to be a very effective nonlinear optimization technique in design of minimum-time robot trajectories. Also, ROBOPATH can be a useful tool in the design of manipulators, robot tasks and workcells.
