Cases in American Foreign Policy

Debuting in its first edition, Cases in American Foreign Policy is a unique country-by-country analysis of American national interests in the 21^st century. Emphasizing the daily conduct of foreign policy, each of the 12 original case studies looks at what interests are at stake, what domestic and international factors affect the realization of those interests, and what scenarios exists for future U.S. relations.
