 - Foreign Affairs   
 - 103(1), Jan-Feb, 2024: p.173-179 
<br/><br/> Surprisingly, for an article assessing the prevalence of rationality in international politics (“Why Smart Leaders Do Stupid Things,” November/December 2023), Keren Yarhi-Milo’s review of our book, How States Think, never offers its own definition of the term. Yarhi-Milo does, however, argue that irrational leaders resort to mental shortcuts, otherwise known as heuristics, or succumb to their emotions. – Reproduced <br/><br/>https://www.foreignaffairs.com/responses/thinking-state-mearsheimer<br/>
