Produktbeschreibung

A set of introductory essays lays the groundwork of basic themes, problems, and issues connected with the study of race and U.S. foreign policy. These are followed by pieces examining the colonial foundations of the racial influences on America's diplomacy, focusing on how the new Americans defined themselves and the Native Americans and African slaves with whom they came in contact. Additional selections examines how race helped to define the foreign policies of the new republic as it expanded westward and began to take its place in the world.
