Item description from seller

xii, 188 pages. Occasional footnotes. Tables. Notes. Suggestions for further reading. Index. Decorative front cover. Numbers and ink marks on half-title page. The book has general wear and tear as well as some highlighting and underlining throughout the book. This is an introduction to the American foreign policy process, particularly the growing interplay of foreign and domestic policy and the tension between the president's need for initiative and congress' demands for control. John Spanier received his Ph.D. from Yale University. Since joining the faculty of the University of Florida in 1957, Spanier has lectured at the U.S. State Department's Foreign Service Institute, the Naval War College, military service academies, and several universities. Among his many other books is Games Nations Play. Eric M. Uslaner is Professor Emeritus of Government and Politics at the University of Maryland-College Park. He the author of eleven books, including The Historical Roots of Corruption (2017), The Moral Foundations of Trust (2002), Corruption, Inequality, and the Rule of Law (2010), Segregation and Mistrust: Diversity, Isolation, and Social Cohesion (2012), and approximately 200 articles. He is the editor of The Oxford Handbook of Social and Political Trust (Oxford, 2018). He has been a consultant to the United Nations Human Development Fund and the Taihe Institute of Beijing, China. He is also a Research Associate for the Gallup Organization and the co-editor with Nils Holtug of National Identity and Social Cohesion (2021) and with Chong-Min Kim, Inequality and Democratic Politics in East Asia (2019). Derived from a Kirkus review: In these parlous times when the duties and powers of the presidency and various governmental agencies have been exercised in such unprecedented, multifarious ways, it is difficult to remember how things went so awry, the authors remind us of the basic dilemma confronted by nations founded on democratic principles: the need for executive power to be distributed in domestic matters and concentrated in foreign affairs. They trace the ways in which successive presidents -- by shrewdness, chance, or necessity and through the permissiveness of the American political system -- increasingly shifted foreign policy decision-making to the White House, and what the consequences have been for the Chief Executive's power in general. Their analysis is objective and strictly political; both the pros and cons of reform are discussed. While there are no answers, the book is a valuable head-clearer. Second Edition [stated]. Presumed first printing thus.
