Strategies of Containment

Carrying the history of containment through the end of the Cold War, this book begins with Franklin D Roosevelt's postwar plans. It provides an analysis of George F Kennan's original strategy of containment, NSC-68, The Eisenhower-Dulles "New Look," and provides an assessment of how Reagan and Gorbechev completed the process of containment. Strategies of Containment is a classic synthesis of American security policy, widely read and assigned in courses despite it not being updated since its original publication in 1982. This new edition will include substantial new material discussing international affairs and American policy since the Carter administration. It will analyze the foreign policy of President Bush and current military action and assess current national security policy.
