Summary:
This edited collection analyzes two American presidential administrations-George W. and Barack Obama. This book gives a European point of view and contributes to the study of U.S. presidencies. Making a comparison and giving outlooks from European academics' standpoints, the political image analyzed fulfills a critical gab in the literature. Playing multiple hands, this work encompasses the vigor of young academics and the sapience of experienced researchers.
