A clearly articulated, well-defined, and relatively stable grand
strategy is supposed to allow the ship of state to steer a steady
course through the roiling seas of global politics. However, the
obstacles to formulating and implementing grand strategy are, by
all accounts, imposing. The Oxford Handbook of Grand Strategy
addresses the conceptual and historical foundations, production,
evolution, and future of grand strategy from a wide range of
standpoints. The seven constituent sections present and critically
examine the history of grand strategy, including beyond the West;
six distinct theoretical approaches to the subject; the sources of
grand strategy, ranging from geography and technology to domestic
politics to individual psychology and culture; the instruments of
grand strategy's implementation, from military to economic to
covert action; political actors', including non-state actors',
grand strategic choices; the debatable merits of grand strategy,
relative to alternatives; and the future of grand strategy, in
light of challenges ranging from political polarization to
technological change to aging populations. The result is a
field-defining, interdisciplinary, and comparative text that will
be a key resource for years to come.
