 Please read: Leon V. Sigal, “Bureaucratic Politics & Tactical Use of Committees: The Interim Committee & the Decision to Drop the Atomic Bomb,’ Polity, Vol. 10, No. 3 (Spring, 1978), pp. 326-364; Available on  http://www.jstor.org/stable/3234412

 And discuss: Sigal offers a new assessment of the reasons for using atomic bombs at the end of WWII. Choose a scene from film "Day After Trinity" and discuss 1) How the scene supports or challenges Sigal's account, and 2) How it helps us understand the concept of ‘logic of war’ as discussed by Misa.
