Siracusa, and Jason C. FlanaganSanta Barbara, Calif. Praeger[2013]1 online resource (408 pages)Bibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph1-4408-0052-9 Includes bibliographical references (p. 407-417) and index.American Foreign Relations since Independence explores the relationship of American policies to national interest and the limits of the nation's power, reinterpreting the nature and history of American foreign relations.The book brings together the collective knowledge of three generations of diplomatic historians to create a readily accessible introduction to the subject. The authors explicitly challenge and reject the perennial debates about isolationism versus internationalism, instead asserting that American foreign relations have been characterized by the permanent tension inherent in America's desire to engage with the world and its equally powerful determination to avoid &quote;entanglement&quote; in the world's troubles. This work is ideally suited as a resource for students of politics, international affairs, and history, and it will provide compelling insights for informed general readers.Political cultureUnited StatesHistoryUnited StatesForeign relationsHistoryElectronic books.Political cultureHistory.327.73Burns Richard Dean484962Siracusa Joseph M191502Flanagan Jason C927558MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910465061703321American foreign relations since independence2083992UNINA
