We argue that one important source of these interests is ideas: When relative state autonomy exists over long periods of time, there is a strong likelihood of a privileged idea that informs state interests. State actors direct state policy during autonomous periods by adopting and privileging particular ideas (institutionalization), resulting in policy outcomes reflecting these now privileged ideas. This argument is examined in two case studies: nuclear weapons targeting since World War II, guided by counterforce, and federal public lands forestry policy since 1900, guided by technocratic utilitarianism" Autonomy - United States Public interest - United States Mlyn, Eric Policy Studies Journal 29621 29621 29621 0 0 0 0 IIPA IIPA 2018-07-19 Volume no: 23, Issue no: 2 AR29761 2018-07-19 2018-07-19 AR
