A Paradigm for the New World Order: A Schools-of-Thought Analysis of American Foreign Policy in the Post-Cold War Era [Hardcover]

This work looks at competing, overarching, guiding principles for American foreign policy in the post-Cold War era, not only by delineating these belief systems but also by linking them to current foreign policy actors in Congress and the executive branch. The book perfects a tool, schools-of-thought analysis, which relates theory to political processes and specific policymakers. It is an attempt to both classify and analyze the intellectual and political nature of the post-Cold War era.List of Charts - Acknowledgements - Abbreviations - Theoretical Introduction - The Democratists - The Neo-Realists - The Institutionalists - Schools-of-Thought Orientations of Central Legislative and Executive Decision-Makers - The Overall Schools-of-Thought Orientation of the Clinton Administration Regarding the Bosnian Crisis - Political Analysis of the American Response to the Bosnian Crisis - Conclusion: Schools-of-Thought Analysis and the Culmination of the Bosnian Crisis - Bibliography - IndexJOHN C.
