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. 607 $aUnited States$xForeign relations$zCuba 607 $aCuba$xForeign relations$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$xForeign relations$y1989-1993 607 $aUnited States$xForeign relations$y1993-2001 676 $a327.7307291/09/049 700 $aMorley$b Morris H.$01483918 702 $aMcGillion$b Chris$f1954- 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910783112203321 996 $aUnfinished business$93702276 997 $aUNINA
