Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American foreign policy has long been caught between conflicting desires to influence world affairs yet at the same time to avoid becoming entangled in the burdensome conflicts and damaging rivalries of other states. Clearly, in the post-1945 context, the United States has failed in the attaining the latter. As this new, expanded edition illustrates, the term “doctrine” seemingly (re)attained a charged prominence in the early twenty-first century and, more recently, regarding the many contested debates surrounding the controversial transition to the Biden administration. Notwithstanding such marked variations in the discourse, presidential doctrines have crafted responses and directions conducive to an international order that best advances American interests: an almost hubristic composition encompassing “democratic” states (in the confidence that democracies do not go to war with one another), open free markets (on the basis that they elevate living standards, engender collaboration, and create prosperity), self-determining states (on the supposition that empires were not only adversative to freedom but more likely to reject American influence), and a secure global environment in which US goals can be pursued (ideally) unimpeded. Of course, with the election of Donald J. Trump in 2016, the doctrinal “commonalties” between Republican and Democratic administrations of previous times were significantly challenged if not completely jettisoned. In seeking to provide a much-needed reassessment of the intersections between US foreign policy, national security, and doctrine, Aiden Warren and Joseph M. Siracusa undertake a comprehensive analysis of the defining presidential doctrines from George Washington through to the epochal post-Trump, Joe Biden era.
Download or read book Presidential Doctrines written by Robert P. Watson and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 2003 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first presidential doctrine was announced by President James Monroe on 2 December 1823 during his seventh annual message to Congress. An international version of this phenomenon would be Winston Churchill's "Iron Curtain" speech. Such was also the case when President George W. Bush addressed the nation in the immediate aftermath of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. This book examines American national security policies in the 20th century, the century in which America rose to superpower or hyperpower status. The same policies will probably determine how long she holds such a powerful position.

Download or read book The Trump Doctrine and the Emerging International System written by Stanley A. Renshon and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-08-27 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: President Donald J. Trump’s “America First” outlook has inspired both enthusiasm and condemnation among different segments of the American population. This book examines the meaning and implications of that perspective, and how the Trump Administration has implemented it—or failed to do so. Contributors, subject-matter experts with diverse points of view, place the Trump Doctrine within the succession of presidential foreign policy themes, and provide a case-by-case analysis of how it has been applied in specific regions and countries around the world. The book’s aim is to provide a fair and balanced assessment, relatively rare in this period of intense partisanship and impending national election.

Book excerpt: This book comprehensively outlines and evaluates the key US Presidential Doctrines extending back to George Washington and concludes with the more recent doctrines of the Bush and Obama Administrations. With the term "doctrine" (re)attaining prominence in the in the early 21st Century and, more recently, in regard to the many contested debates surrounding the Obama's very own "set of guidelines," this book will argue that the doctrinal thrust in articulating the US' foreign policy direction via speeches, formal policy releases and since 1986—in attempting to formalise the process through the release of the National Security Strategies—has been very much apparent in most, if not all, US Administrations. Indeed, American foreign policy has long been caught between conflicting desires to influence world affairs yet at the same avoid getting entangled in the troublesome conflicts and rivalries of other nations. In essence, this book evaluates the key Presidential doctrines in explaining the current dilemmas facing the US as a continuation of "perennial foreign policy challenges," rather than a fundamental departure from issues the nation has faced previously. In linking these varied Presidential arteries to the defining Bush doctrine and the current and developing Obama doctrine, this book will navigate and assess the key Presidential doctrines encompassing both the individual and defining transitional themes, including: Washington's Farewell Address, the Monroe Doctrine, Manifest Destiny, the Open Door, Off-shore Balancer, Containment, Liberation, Interventionism, Engagement, Pre-emption/Prevention, and conclude with the "reluctant realist" doctrine of the Obama Administration. Positing new insights and greater linkages between the current context and past Administrations, this analytical review of key Presidential doctrines will reveal that while each was formulated and adopted by US leaders in reaction to immediate foreign policy concerns, each also addressed certain fundamental aspects of U.S. national security that led future statesmen to follow its broad policy objectives and prescriptions. Offering a comprehensive analysis of the past and present status of the US President doctrine, this volume will be of great interest to scholars and students of American foreign policy, American history, security studies and international relations.

Download or read book The President and Immigration Law written by Adam B. Cox and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-08-04 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who controls American immigration policy? The biggest immigration controversies of the last decade have all involved policies produced by the President policies such as President Obama's decision to protect Dreamers from deportation and President Trump's proclamation banning immigrants from several majority-Muslim nations. While critics of these policies have been separated by a vast ideological chasm, their broadsides have embodied the same widely shared belief: that Congress, not the President, ought to dictate who may come to the United States and who will be forced to leave. This belief is a myth. In The President and Immigration Law, Adam B. Cox and Cristina M. Rodríguez chronicle the untold story of how, over the course of two centuries, the President became our immigration policymaker-in-chief. Diving deep into the history of American immigration policy from founding-era disputes over deporting sympathizers with France to contemporary debates about asylum-seekers at the Southern border they show how migration crises, real or imagined, have empowered presidents. Far more importantly, they also uncover how the Executive's ordinary power to decide when to enforce the law, and against whom, has become an extraordinarily powerful vehicle for making immigration policy. This pathbreaking account helps us understand how the United States ?has come to run an enormous shadow immigration system-one in which nearly half of all noncitizens in the country are living in violation of the law. It also provides a blueprint for reform, one that accepts rather than laments the role the President plays in shaping the national community, while also outlining strategies to curb the abuse of law enforcement authority in immigration and beyond.
