This book examines US foreign policy and global standing in the
21st Century. The United States is the most powerful actor in world
politics today. Against this backdrop, the present volume examines
how the foreign policies pursued by Presidents' George W. Bush and
Barack Obama have affected elite and public perceptions of the
United States. By examining America's standing from the perspective
of different actors from across various regions, including China,
Russia, Latin America and the Middle East, while also assessing how
these perceptions interact with America's own policies, this books
presents a fresh interpretation of America's global standing. In
doing so, the volume evaluates how these perceptions affect the
realities of US power, and what impact this has on moulding US
foreign policy and the policies of other global powers. A number of
books address the question of which grand strategy the United
States should adopt and the issue of whether or not America is in
relative decline as a world power. However, the debate on these
issues has largely been set against the policies of the Bush
administration. By contrast, this volume argues that while Obama
has raised the popularity of America since the low reached by Bush,
America's credibility and overall standing have actually been
damaged further under President Obama. This book will be of much
interest to students of US foreign policy, US national security,
strategic studies, Middle Eastern politics, international relations
and security studies generally.
