In today's episode David and Tim discuss Strategic Culture. Strategic Culture is a tool for analysing states' security behaviour developed by Jack Snyder in the 1970s. Snyder argued that if we understand how security professionals and the political elite are trained to think about security and strategy, then we can understand how states might behave in relation to brinkmanship and warfare. With the current tension between the United States and Iran, Strategic Culture has immediate relevance.If you have any thoughts, questions, or want to present your argument, contact us and send us an audio clip at [email protected]'Strategic culture can be defined as a set of beliefs, attitudes and norms towards the use of military force', often moulded according to historical experience' - Jack Snyder 1977The Future of Strategic Military Leadership | Murphy Danahy | TEDxWestPointMcFate, Sean (2019).
