Assignment:

During the 1951-1953 war termination phase of the Korean Conflict, three strategic challenges needed to be addressed by both belligerents: how far to go militarily before making peace; what to demand in the armistice or peace talks; and how to convince or compel the enemy to accept as many of your terms as possible. Which side-the Americans or the Chinese-did a better job overcoming these three challenges? In examining the relationships between civilian and military decision-makers, which was more harmful to the American conduct of the war in Korea-the failure of the military to comprehend the political objective or the failure of civilian leaders to comprehend what actually can and cannot be achieved by force?
