The field of grand strategy is exceptionally American-centric
theoretically, methodologically and empirically. Indeed, many
scholars treat the United States as a unique case, and thus
incomparable. This Element addresses the shortcomings of this
approach by developing a novel framework for the purpose of
systematic comparison, both within and among different countries.
Using the United States as a benchmark, three dimensions are
considered in which grand strategy can be compared: first,
attributes of the major types commonly discussed in the literature;
second, similarities and differences in the implementation of grand
strategies over time, using US strategic relations with
contemporary Russia as an example; and finally, across space,
properties of the grand strategies that are interactively employed
by other major powers in relation to the United States in the
Indo-Pacific. The Element can be used by scholars and students
alike to expand analysis beyond the confines that currently
dominate the field.
