Given the focus on foreign affairs and national security following
9/11, it is easy to overlook the domestic and economic legacies of
the George W. Bush presidency. However, the articles in this volume
argue that not only were these policies consequential to the
nation, but in a number of instances they defied the conventional
wisdom concerning the Bush White House. While Bush pursued
ideologically conservative policies in some areas (e.g., Social
Security, Supreme Court nominations and taxes), in others he did
not (e.g., education, trade, government spending). Other examples
include staffing (more competent and less ideological than one
would expect) and press relations (relatively transparent). Taken
together, these chapters will provoke second thoughts about Bush's
domestic presidency as they argue that his policies frequently
deviated from doctrinaire conservatism and changed the nation.
