- SMOKERS’ CORNER: MYTHS OF THE 'MADMAN'
The article discusses the 'Madman Theory' as a political strategy where leaders project irrationality to gain advantage, referencing Nixon's use during the Vietnam War. It contrasts this with the argument by Mearsheimer and Rosato that states act rationally, using structured theories. The piece also notes Pakistan's response to accusations during the Iran-US conflict by shifting its ideological narrative.
