The Obama Doctrine (eBook, ePUB)

A Legacy of Continuity in US Foreign Policy?
Redaktion: Bentley, Michelle; Holland, Jack

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This edited volume examines whether these issues of continuity have been equally as prevalent during the president's second term as his first. Is he still acting within the foreign policy shadow of Bush, or has he been able to establish his own approach towards international affairs, distinct from his predecessor? Within this context, this volume also addresses the idea of legacy and whether Obama has succeeded in establishing his own distinct foreign policy doctrine.
