内容説明

This is a consideration of the major influences and developments in US foreign policy since the mid-60s that focuses upon the interaction between foreign policy institutions, public opinion, the changing international environment and substantive foreign policy. Primarily for non-American readers and researched in US archives, the book is written in the context both of the debate on US decline and the move to post-Cold War conditions.
