Summary:

Fully revised and updated, this new edition analyzes the relationship between the process and substance of US foreign policy since the mid 1960s. Separate sections cover the domestic and international contexts and interpretations of decision-making theory and foreign policy analysis, as well as the roles of the President, Congress, the CIA, and regional and private powers. David Barrett's chapter provides an American perspective on presidential foreign policy. The role that public opinion plays is also measured by John Dumbrell and case studies effectively illustrate the theories and processes described.
