The second edition of "US Foreign Policy after the Cold War
"provides a comprehensive introduction to the main actors and
machinery of American foreign policy. It also offers an assessment
of the foreign policy records of the Clinton and the two Bush
administrations. It examines how America struggled to find a
defining role in the decade after the Cold War and then assesses
the revolution in US foreign and security policy brought about as a
result of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. It charts the unilateralist
trends in the first George W Bush administration and suggests that
there may be some changes in foreign policy during the second four
years as a result of the experience of going-it-alone on Iraq.
The book provides an inside account of the major actors in US
foreign policy - the White House, the State Department, Pentagon,
intelligence agencies, Congress, media and public opinion. It then
considers the priorities of US foreign policy including:
- Terrorism
- Rogue states
- The promotion of democracy
- Trade
- The Middle East
- Europe
- Asia
It also contains an overview of the debate about the direction of
US foreign policy within the US and analyses the implications of
American power for the rest of the world. This book is essential
reading for professionals and academics with interests in the
United States, international politics and international relations.
