Positing that presidents shape America's foreign policy according
to their ethnic heritage, this intriguing volume examines two
groups that have dominated the presidency and the distinctly
different agendas that have resulted. How is American foreign
policy determined? The Great Anglo-Celtic Divide in the History of
American Foreign Relations approaches that question from a
fascinating perspective, arguing that, to a large extent, the
answer lies in the ethnicity of the president. To make its point,
this book examines the key foreign policies of American presidents
from George Washington to George W. Bush and shows how their most
important foreign policy decisions have tended to follow an ethnic
pattern. The presidency has been dominated by Americans from
English or Celtic backgrounds since the nation's founding, and as
readers will discover, the foreign policies of the two groups have
been very different. To document those differences, this book
analyzes seven alternating periods of political domination by
Anglo-Americans and Celtic-Americans, demonstrating how the cycle
of change affected the shape and distinguishing characteristics of
U.S. foreign policy in matters of war and peace and in relations
with other countries. A bibliography
