Book excerpt: Excerpt from Policy and Power: Two Centuries of American Foreign Relations It is a truism regarding the study of human affairs that the past, present, and future merge in the thinking of any individual. His beliefs about the past, about human experience, will largely determine his estimate of events and trends of the eeting present, and this estimate will not be separate from his vision of the future. It seems obvious, therefore, that accurate knowledge about the past is essential for any rational View of what constitutes the good society, and for any hope of progress toward that goal. Since every situation in the world today has somehow emerged from its antecedents, no world problem can be understood except in the context of its origin and development. If history throws no light on the pathway of the future, the human race is doomed indeed to walk in darkness.

Download or read book Explaining the History of American Foreign Relations written by Michael J. Hogan and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2004-01-19 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1991, Explaining the History of American Foreign Relations has become an indispensable volume not only for teachers and students in international history and political science, but also for general readers seeking an introduction to American diplomatic history. This collection of essays highlights a variety of newer, innovative, and stimulating conceptual approaches and analytical methods used to study the history of American foreign relations, including bureaucratic, dependency, and world systems theories, corporatist and national security models, psychology, culture, and ideology. Along with substantially revised essays from the first edition, this volume presents entirely new material on postcolonial theory, borderlands history, modernization theory, gender, race, memory, cultural transfer, and critical theory. The book seeks to define the study of American international history, stimulate research in fresh directions, and encourage cross-disciplinary thinking, especially between diplomatic history and other fields of American history, in an increasingly transnational, globalizing world.
Download or read book American Foreign Relations written by Andrew Preston and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-04-01 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For better or worse--be it militarily, politically, economically, technologically, or culturally--Americans have had a profound role in shaping the wider world beyond them. The United States has been a savior to some, a curse to others, but either way such views are often based on a caricature of American actions and intentions. American Foreign Relations, then, is a subject of immense global importance that provokes strong emotions and much debate, but often based on deep misunderstanding. This Very Short Introduction analyzes the key episodes, themes, and individuals in the history of American foreign relations. While discussing diplomacy and the periods of war that have shaped national and international history, it also addresses such topics as industrialization, globalization, imperialism, and immigration. Covering the Revolution through the War on Terror, it examines the connections between domestic politics and foreign affairs, as well as the importance of ideals and values. Sharply written and highly readable, American Foreign Relations offers a clear-eyed narrative of America's role in the world and how it has evolved over time. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.

Download or read book American Foreign Policy Since World War II written by Steven W. Hook and published by CQ Press. This book was released on 2015-03-03 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Steven Hook and John Spanier’s classic text, American Foreign Policy Since World War II, celebrates its Twentieth Edition. It has remained the standard for guiding students through the complexities of American foreign policy by showing how recent developments confirm the book’s overarching theme—that there is an American “style” of foreign policy imbued with a distinct sense of national exceptionalism. Giving students important historical context, the book allows them to grasp the functions and frequent dysfunctions of the nation’s evolving foreign policy agenda. In this new edition, chapters covering the end of the Cold War have been combined and streamlined, making room for a new chapter that examines the aftershocks of the Arab Spring, political breakdowns in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the rise of the Islamic State. The final chapter considers the revival of power politics in world politics, with Russia and China stepping up their attempts to weaken the United States and create a multipolar world. The book ends by reconsidering America’s distinctive style of foreign policy and its resilience amid such turbulence since World War II.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from America's Foreign Relations THE United States at the outbreak of its epochal Civil War in 1861 was at peace with all the outside world and was nominally on terms of friendship with all nations. Various circumstances caused that friendship to be, however, somewhat less real than apparent, and there can be little doubt that some powers from the beginning looked upon the conflict among the States with indifference, while some would have been pleased to see the Southern Confederacy successful and the Union therefore dissolved. On the European continent the revolutionary movements of 1848 were still fresh in mind, and there was among the upholders of absolutism strong resentment against the United States for the sympathy which it had manifested toward them and for the asylum which it had given to innumerable political refugees; indeed, for the asylum which it was giving to those who in exile were still plotting or agitating against the regime from which they had fled. This feeling was strong in Austria because of the attitude of the United States toward Kossuth and the Hungarian rebellion, and also because of the sympathy which had been manifested here with Garibaldi and the Italian revolt against Austrian domination. It was perceptible in many other parts of the Continent, and was coupled with a willingness if not a desire to see republicanism fail in America in order that it might be discouraged and averted in Europe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from America's Foreign Relations, Vol. 1 of 2 It is my purpose to write a History of the Foreign Relations of the United States of America. I shall begin it with some consideration of what I may term the pre-natal influences of the nation, to wit, the relations which existed among the European powers which preceded this Republic in possession of the land, and which in an important measure were left as a legacy of good or evil to the United States; and I shall hope to complete it as a continuous and coherent narrative down to our own day. It will be a history for the reading and information of the average lay citizen. Therefore it will not be a technical treatise on diplomacy or international law, such as would appeal chiefly to the student, jurist or statesman. Neither will there be any effort - which it might be vain for me to make - to invest the narrative with such romantic charm or rhetorical art as would commend it to the dilettante or to the seeker after entertainment but would at the same time probably impair its value as a work of serious information. Nor yet shall I seek as a special pleader to depict our country as always wise and just in its dealings with others, or others as necessarily in the wrong in their controversies with America; but I shall sincerely strive to treat all with impartiality. In brief, I shall aim to make this a popular history in a worthy sense of that too often abused term, intended for popular perusal and accurate information upon topics which are among at once the most important and the most neglected or most misunderstood in all our national annals. The observations of a lifetime largely given to the study of these things have persuaded me that the foreign relations of this country are the least generally known part of its history.

Download or read book The History of American Foreign Policy from 1895 written by Jerald A. Combs and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-04-01 with total page 702 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in its fifth edition, this volume offers a clear, concise, and nuanced history of U.S. foreign relations since the Spanish–American War and places that narrative within the context of the most influential historiographical trends and debates. The History of American Foreign Policy from 1895 includes both revised and new sections that incorporate insights from recent scholarship on the United States in the world. These sections devote more attention to the international framework as well as the domestic constraints under which American foreign policymakers operated. This edition also emphasizes the role of non-state actors such as missionaries, aid workers, activists, and business leaders in shaping policies and contributing to international relations. As a result, the text considers a broader and more diverse range of people and voices than many other histories of U.S. foreign policy. Expanded final chapters bring the story of U.S. foreign relations to the present and explore some of the contemporary challenges facing American and global leaders, including terrorism, the effects of climate change, China’s increasing influence, and globalization. Updated controversial issues sections and suggestions for further reading at the end of each chapter reflect important contributions from new studies. This engaging text is an invaluable resource for students interested in the history of American foreign policy and international relations.
