Dear Henry,

Thank you so much for sending me
your illuminating article from Daedalus.
Your trenchant analysis of the impact of
bureaucracy on policy making leaves me wonder-
ing how we manage to survive at all.

Helen and I are off to Europe on
June 17th. I wonder whether I shall have the
pleasure of seeing you in New York before then.

Dear Professor Kissinger:

Immediately before leaving for a short holidays, I
received your letter of May 6 and a reprint of your
article in Daedalus "Domestic Structure and Foreign
Policy". I shall read it in my vacations and write
you later on.

In the meantime my preoccupations have increased,
not diminished.

Dear Henry:

I read your Daedalus piece on the plane coming back from London/Amsterdam over the weekend. I accept your analysis of your three kinds of leadership, and I hope that you will do now another piece, this time on the thesis implicit in your last paragraph.

Van der Beugel was enjoying some attention while I was in the Hague for mounting a savage attack on Labor for its criticism of U.S. Viet-Nam policy. He was in good form.

Let's have lunch soon. And thank you for having me on your mailing list. Please keep me there.

Dear Henry,

Thank you for sending me your article in *Daedalus*--I had seen it in the publication but am glad to have the reprint. I was particularly interested in your theory of administrative democracy and the peculiar qualities of bureaucratic decision-making. It is a subject I have been thinking about. I am not clear whether they challenge a stable international order or may eventually produce one. Sometime we may have a chance to discuss it.

Meanwhile, all good fortune. My sense is that the world has become slightly more quiescent, though not I am afraid because of the work of international experts.

With kind regards, I am,

Dear Dr. Henry:

Thank you so much for the copy of your article which appeared in Daedalus. Just got it a day or so ago at my present base of operations. Particulars above.

After getting back from Paris about Xmas, we visited around a bit and then set up shop in Washington. Our intention is to spend the summers here and the winters in Europe. This winter will see us at Gstaad. Good skiing and within easy reach of the national capitols that interest me.

Am spending my time on doing a little free lancing. Or more specifically I should say that I am doing the homework associated with the free lancing I hope to do in the future! Have my foot in one or two doors and I enjoy the work very much.

Any possibility of your having lunch with me during one of your many trips to Washington? Information has our number and we live only 5 minutes from the airport, 7 min from 14th and F

Very sincerely

Dear Dr. Kissinger:

We are interested in using in our information program overseas
your article "Domestic Structure and Foreign Policy", which was pub-
lished in the Spring 1966 issue of DAEDALUS. Since DAEDALUS usually
asks that we obtain the author's permission in addition to its own,
we are writing to you also.

Our office in Tokyo wishes to publish a Japanese translation of
the article in NICHIBEI FORUM, a scholarly journal published monthly
by the U. S. Information Service in Japan. Since our offices in other
areas may also want to use the material, we would like additional per-
mission for its republication (in English and in translation) by other
U. S. Information Service offices and the local press outside the United
States and Canada. Credit, of course, will be given to you and also to
DAEDALUS.

Operating within a limited budget for reprint materials, we are per-
mitted to offer a token payment of $25 for use of the article. Should
you wish, we will limit our use to a period of five years.

If there is no objection to republication of the material as pro-
posed, please sign and return the enclosed copy of this letter. Please
indicate also whether you wish to receive the token payment and the five-
year limitation to apply. We are enclosing a self-addressed stamped
envelope for your convenience.

We will appreciate very much your cooperation in considering this
request.

KISSINGER (H.A.) - "Domestic structure and foreign policy". *Daedalus*, Spring 66 : 503-529.

In the traditional conception of international politics, states are treated as homogeneous units with a similar perception of "the rules of the game." This approach is valid only for stable periods, and this stability is, to a considerable degree, based on the similarity of outlook of national leaders. In periods of great domestic and international flux, however, the theory of international relations must take differences in internal structure into account. These differences can be analyzed under two headings: the impact of the administrative structure, and the nature of leadership. The former determines the manner in which problems are perceived. The latter regulates the criteria according to which they are accepted or rejected. It is the task of the administrator to distinguish between routine and unusual problems and to free the energies of the leader for the creative effort the latter requires. Leadership, in turn, must choose between the statesmanlike and the prophetic approach, between the quest for stability and the realization of a vision.
