Robert Jeffrey Art
Edit ProfileProfessor of International Relations
Career
He subscribes to the theory of neorealism, which argues that force still underlies the power structure in the modern world. Since 1982, he has also co-edited Cornell University"s "Series in Security Studies." He has lectured at numerous American universities and research institutes and at the following military and foreign institutions: the Army War College, the National War College, West Point, the Air Force Academy, the Marine Command and Staff College, the Air Force Command and Staff College, the Air University, the Naval Postgraduate School, the Industrial College of the Armed Forces, the National War College (Beijing), the People"s University (Beijing), the Institute for War Studies (King"s College, London), the Free University of Berlin, the Konrad Adenauer Institute (Berlin), the North Atlantic Treaty Organization School (Oberammergau), and the Führungsakademie der Bundeswehr (Hamburg). Art has been critical of North Atlantic Treaty Organization"s expansion, writing presciently in 1998 that The United States and its North Atlantic Treaty Organization allies have gotten themselves into a real pickle ith their decision to enlarge North Atlantic Treaty Organization by taking in Poland, Hungary, and the Czechoslovakian Republic How large can a North Atlantic Treaty Organization-without-Russia become before the West more or less permanently alienates Russia? Taking in Ukraine without also inducting Russia is the quickest way to alienate Russia and would justifiably give rise within Russia to fears of encirclement by, and exclusion from, the West.
