Anotace

This new volume gives a balanced critical analysis of the Bush Doctrine and its profound effect on global politics and international security. The Bush Doctrine and the War on Terrorism is a collection of fifteen analyses of the global consequences of, and responses to, US foreign policy under George W. Bush. Offering competing interpretations of the origins and effects of Bush's policies, this book provides a detailed examination of the post-September 11 world and America's contested role and influence therein. Examining the key features of the Bush Doctrine; American primacy; preventive war; the war on terrorism and democracy promotion - and their practical application in Afghanistan, Iraq, and the broader Middle East, the chapters provide a comprehensive and timely assessment of Bush's proclaimed commitment to 'end tyranny' worldwide. Eight chapters written by regional specialists consider the particular factors driving divergent responses to Bush's leadership and a further five chapters analyze the consequences of the Bush Doctrine for global security, the global economy, the UN, international law and multilateralism. Providing a balanced and dispassionate assessment of continuity and change in American foreign policy, national/regional responses to it, and the impact of US foreign policy on a set of 'big picture' discrete issues, this book will be essential reading for scholars and researchers of international relations and contemporary history.
