This book examines the role and importance of the Presidency in the
formulation and conduct of US grand strategy. The text discusses US
strategic history, with particular emphasis on the period from the
end of the Cold War to the present day. While the United States
periodically has enjoyed exceptional presidential leadership in the
past, this book argues that few future presidents will meet high
standards of leadership in foreign affairs. In turn, this will
undermine the ability of the United States to construct and
maintain a coherent grand strategy appropriate to the multipolar
world of the twenty-first century. Grand Strategy and the
Presidency explores the role that the holders of the presidential
office have played in the past development of the United States as
a great power. Drawing upon examples from history, the textual
analysis is shaped around the description of the long-term
strategic development of the United States. The author then
considers what the events of recent decades portend for the future
of US strategy and foreign policy. This book will be of interest to
students of Presidential Studies, US foreign policy, Strategic
Studies, and IR/Security Studies in general.
