In this article, we trace the failure of neoconservative and neoliberal thinkers to revise positions in light of changing US fortunes to highlight the need to evaluate paradigmatic contributions to US Foreign Policy. Drawing on the philosophy of science literature, we suggest that, in order for approaches to be taken seriously, their proponents ought to present means of their own falsification. We argue that the obstinacy of paradigms is not merely of academic importance, since such approaches may contribute to the very crises they claim to resolve. This should give policy makers reasons to reject them as fundamentalist.

哪些想法应指导美国外交政策？追究原教旨主义政策范式

在本文中，我们追踪了新保守派和新自由主义思想家未能根据美国命运的变化来修改立场，以强调需要评估对美国外交政策的范式贡献。我们建议借鉴科学文学的哲学，为了认真对待这些方法，其支持者应提出自己伪造的手段。我们认为范式的固执不仅具有学术意义，因为这种方法可能会助长他们声称要解决的危机。这应该使决策者有理由拒绝他们为原教旨主义者。
