内容説明
Foreign policy of the United States is a complex mechanism defined both by constitutional law as well as by various instruments of public and private pressure. This book examines first of all the foreign policy roles of the President and Congress. History has shown control of foreign policy has shifted between the Executive Branch and Congress depending on public opinion, perceived strengths of various presidents, congressional interest levels and willingness of power congressmen to oppose the president. National interest as a foreign policy element is considered as well. Albeit a vague term that can and often is construed to mean whatever a particular president or congress is interested in the moment, there are several areas of general agreement; cheap oil for American consumers; halting nuclear proliferation; containment of Russia; following Israeli direction on Mid-East policy; trying to open Chinese markets for American companies; generally serving as an active agent of American business in global markets; maintaining and projecting American's military muscle throughout the world. The book also examines the government organisations involved in foreign policy, the laws related to various countries, foreign election monitoring, economic sanctions as instruments of foreign policy, international terrorism and the War Powers Resolution.

内容説明
Opium poppy cultivation and drug trafficking have eroded Afghanistan's fragile political and economic order over the last 30 years. In spite of ongoing counter-narcotics efforts by the Afghan government, the U.S., and their partners, Afghanistan remains the source of over 90% of the world's illicit opium. This book provides current statistical information, profiles the narcotics trade's participants, explores linkages between narcotics, insecurity and corruption, and reviews U.S. and international policy responses since late 2001. Furthermore, key issues in the 111th Congress regarding the South Caucasus are discussed as well - including supporting Georgia's integration into Western institutions such as NATO, Azerbaijan's energy development, and Armenia's independence and economic development. Current issues and U.S. policies regarding Bosnia, Bahrain and Brazil are also looked at, as well as the countries political, economic and social conditions, and how those conditions affect its role in the region and its relationship with the U.S.

内容説明
Democracy promotion has been a long-standing element of U.S. foreign policy. Under the Bush Administration, efforts to spread freedom to Iraq and around the world have been viewed as a tool to end tyranny and as a mechanism to increase prosperity in poor countries. This book examines the many elements of foreign policy including topics such as: the foreign aid policy and reform since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001; international science and technology co-operation and the National Science Foundation's (NSF) current international activities; and the issues and options relating to the Strategic Arms Control Treaty with the Soviet Union, among others.
