Today Bechtel is one of the largest privately held corporations in the world, enriched and empowered by a long history of government contracts and the privatization of public works, made possible by an unprecedented revolving door between its San Francisco headquarters and Washingto

Download or read book The Foreign Policy of the Bush Administration written by Steven Hurst and published by Burns & Oates. This book was released on 1999 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this important work, Steven Hurst demonstrates how the much-criticized Bush administration dealt effectively and skillfully with the massive upheavals associated with the end of the Cold War and began to shape a coherent US foreign policy for the post-Cold War era. Using government documents and recently published memoirs of key policymakers, Hurst provides the most detailed account so far of the policymaking processes of the Bush administration. He provides new insights into those policy areas which have already received critical attention, including relations with the USSR and the Persian Gulf Crisis, as well as neglected fields such as US-Latin American relations. Finally, the author addresses the much-derided concept of the "New World Order." He demonstrates that far from being a meaningless phrase dreamed up by Bush during the Gulf Crisis, the New World Order actually represented a coherent strategy founded in American values and foreign policy tradition and forms a logical and sustainable basis for,US foreign policy in the post-Cold War era.

Download or read book Hubris written by Michael Isikoff and published by Crown. This book was released on 2007-05-29 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The real story behind the investigation of Iraq, and the basis for the MSNBC documentary of the same name hosted by Rachel Maddow Filled with news-making revelations that made it a New York Times bestseller, Hubris takes us behind the scenes at the White House, CIA, Pentagon, State Department, and Congress to show how George W. Bush came to invade Iraq--and how his administration struggled with the devastating fallout. Hubris connects the dots between Bush's expletive-laden outbursts at Saddam Hussein, the bitter battles between the CIA and the White House, the fights within the intelligence community over Saddam's supposed weapons of mass destruction, the outing of an undercover CIA officer, and the Bush administration's misleading sales campaign for war. Written by veteran reporters Michael Isikoff and David Corn, this is an inside look at how a president took the nation to war using faulty and fraudulent intelligence. It's a dramatic page-turner and an intriguing account of conspiracy, backstabbing, bureaucratic ineptitude, journalistic malfeasance, and arrogance.

Download or read book When the Press Fails written by W. Lance Bennett and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2008-09-15 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sobering look at the intimate relationship between political power and the news media, When the Press Fails argues the dependence of reporters on official sources disastrously thwarts coverage of dissenting voices from outside the Beltway. The result is both an indictment of official spin and an urgent call to action that questions why the mainstream press failed to challenge the Bush administration’s arguments for an invasion of Iraq or to illuminate administration policies underlying the Abu Ghraib controversy. Drawing on revealing interviews with Washington insiders and analysis of content from major news outlets, the authors illustrate the media’s unilateral surrender to White House spin whenever oppositional voices elsewhere in government fall silent. Contrasting these grave failures with the refreshingly critical reporting on Hurricane Katrina—a rare event that caught officials off guard, enabling journalists to enter a no-spin zone—When the Press Fails concludes by proposing new practices to reduce reporters’ dependence on power. “The hand-in-glove relationship of the U.S. media with the White House is mercilessly exposed in this determined and disheartening study that repeatedly reveals how the press has toed the official line at those moments when its independence was most needed.”—George Pendle, Financial Times “Bennett, Lawrence, and Livingston are indisputably right about the news media’s dereliction in covering the administration’s campaign to take the nation to war against Iraq.”—Don Wycliff, Chicago Tribune “[This] analysis of the weaknesses of Washington journalism deserves close attention.”—Russell Baker, New York Review of Books
