Förlagets beskrivning
This text examines a century of American experience to illustrate how the
United States determines its security policies. While scholars have typically
focused on "outside factors", such as international pressures, constraints and
opportunities, this collection of essays shows that decisions about strategy
are critically shaped by domestic politics - political ideologies, state
structure and societal interests. Essays by Edward Rhodes, Peter Trubowitz and Mark Shulman offer evidence
that America's emergence as a great naval power in the late 19th century had
less to do with security than with issues of national identity, commerce and
social change. Bartholomew Sparrow compares the power of the press in the late
19th and 20th centuries to explore the media's ability to frame the debate on
strategy. Miroslav Nincic, Gerry Gorsky and Roger Rose examine the influence of
public opinion on security strategy in the 1990s. Emily Goldman, Edward Smith
and Jan Breemer examine the workings of military bureaucracy to relate
strategic policy to politics inside the military establishment. At a time when America's security needs and goals are adjusting rapidly,
this book offers policymakers and scholars of international affairs critical
models for understanding the complex reality of security policy. Examines a century of American experience to illustrate how the United
States determines its security policies. The essays in this volume show that
decisions about strategy are critically shaped by domestic politics - political
ideologies, state structure and societal interests.
