Drawing on interviews with Bush and Clinton policy-makers, congressional participants in the policy debate, and leaders of the anti-sanctions business community, it makes an important contribution to our knowledge of the evolution of American policy during this period. This study argues that Bush and Clinton operated within the same Cold War framework that shaped the Cuba policy of their predecessors. But it also demonstrates that US policy after 1989 was driven principally by the imperatives of domestic politics. The authors show how Bush and Clinton corrupted the policy-making process by subordinating rational decision-making in the national interest to narrow political calculations. The result was the pursuit of a policy that had nothing to do with its stated objectives of promoting reforms in Cuba and everything to do with getting rid of Fidel Castro's regime.United StatesForeign relationsCubaCubaForeign relationsUnited StatesUnited StatesForeign relations1989-1993United StatesForeign relations1993-2001327.7307291/09/049Morley Morris H.1038608McGillion Chris1954-UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910449679603321Unfinished business2460325UNINA
