Special Update to American Foreign Policy: The Bush Administration and the Dynamics of Choice

A new president, George W. Bush, has been elected. A new administration is now in charge of the US foreign policy.

In this Special Update to American Foreign Policy: The Bush Administration and the Dynamics of Choice, Bruce Jentleson offers an initial perspective on foreign policy politics and foreign policy strategy in the Bush administration.
