Abstract
Only recently have strategists and social scientists begun to ask questions concerning the nature of America's strategic culture. Few, however, have recognized that the study of strategy is itself a part of the strategic culture of a nation and must be expected to share its parochialism. Greater attention to the liberal democratic roots of America's strategic culture reveals certain characteristics that are unyielding to military reforms as now contemplated.Keywords
