Contemporary Cases in U.S. Foreign Policy From Terrorism to Trade

Contemporary cases in U.S. Foreign Policy captures the complexity of the foreign policymaking process by showcasing 15 recent real-world cases. Whether grappling with the war with Iraq. dealing with North Korea's nuclear weapons program, raising and lowering steel tariffs, or choosing to participate in multilateral initiatives like the International Criminal Court or Kyoto Protocol on Climate Change, students must question motives, consider alternatives, predict outcomes, and communicate choices. To help students get a sense of why the issues are important, and why particular policy choices were made, the authors follow a consistent format across chapters, providing critical thinking questions, a chronology, and a annotated list of key characters for each case.
