Description and Table of Contents
Description
Reviewing, comparing, and contrasting major models of foreign policy decisionmaking, contributors to this volume make a substantial contribution to the debate between cognitive and rational theories of decisionmaking.
The authors describe the leading cognitive and rational models and introduce alternative models of foreign policy choice (prospect theory, poliheuristic theory, theory of moves, and two-level games). They also identify conditions under which one strategy is more appropriate than another. Their collective work addresses the questions at the core of the debate about the actual decisionmaking behavior of political leaders.
