This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on the concepts covered
in the preceding chapters of this book. The book reflects on the
fundamental aspects of the concept, originally used to explain Soviet
strategic preferences regarding nuclear weapons policy but later adopted
by other scholars with widely different agendas. It also discusses how
strategic culture could expand as a research agenda through a more
systematic application to other areas of IR. The chapter identifies
different policy options that could have emerged under their particular
strategic scenarios. It moves the discussion away from war and peace—by
all accounts elements of the more traditional strategic culture
agenda—toward a different domain of statecraft: political economy.
Strategic culture has enormous potential as an instrument of policy
change when the role that individuals play as embodiments of a specific
strategic culture is emphasized, as well as when their influences and
socialization processes are scrutinized closely.
